However, her real money is something she likes even less than being a dominatrix. Ever since childhood, Misaki has had the ability to see and communicate with ghosts, and that talent is put to use by the Livelihood Protection Agency, who pairs Misaki with Souichiro Kadotake, a martial artist who happens to be deathly afraid of ghosts. Using her gifts, Misaki is able to help troubled departed spirits resolve what is troubling them and allow them to move on to the afterlife. If all THAT isn't odd enough, Misaki is an albino AND a virgin. Sexy and dark story from writer Saki Okuse (Twilight of the Dark Master) and artist Sankichi Meguro. Fans have been waiting for this book to be released in English. There is a very successful Anime based on this series of books. Volume comes shrink-wrapped and carries an 18+ content advisory.
