(NOTE: Any information I reveal about the plot is covered in the first volume, so don't worry about spoilers.)
So far, the story centers on a group of guys who have been friends since elementary school, and their connection to a symbol drawn by one of the boys as part of their childhood "secret society." The symbol (of an eye on a hand with a finger pointing upwards, all inside another eye), becomes mysteriously linked with several deaths when the boys are adults. It also happens to be the symbol for a strange cult lead by a man known as "Friend", who may or may not be one of the original "secret society". As more information is revealed, the story quickly takes on all the best aspects of a sophisticated mystery, with a bit of old-fashioned sci-fi thrown in the mix. It's excellently paced and quite a page turner. You can read it online at .
