She helped him disappear.

She’ll wish she hadn’t . . .

In Japan, one hundred thousand people voluntarily disappear every year, aided by those who help them start over. They call them Johatsu – the evaporated.

I brought the idea to England. No judgement, no questions. Just new identities, packed bags, and discreet escape plans from abusive partners, debt, or simply lives that no longer fit.

I thought I was doing something good – honourable, even. Until now.

I know now that not everyone is fleeing hardship. I’ve helped someone who committed a crime to flee the police. I’ve disappeared a murderer.

And unless I find him, I don’t know what he’ll do next . . .
