Doctor Mephisto is a man who is as skillful and handsome as he is mysterious and terrifying. He can cure any illness, heal fatal injuries, transform lead to gold, summon vicious monsters to do his bidding and perhaps even...revive the dead!?

In the thick fog that drowns out all sounds and smells, Arama and her brother have the bad luck of running into a group of infamous bounty hunters. These men have gathered in order to hunt an outlaw with a bounty of one hundred million gold on his head. But, who is this man? And can he really be hunted so easily?

Dr. Taima is not your average doctor: a skilled acupuncturist with the ability to wield the taimashin (needles that control the flow of chi in things and are used to banish demons). He is often called upon to drive demons out of possessed persons that devour anything within their grasp - dogs, cats...even other people! Accompanied by his charming assistant, Togetsu Maki, Dr. Taima travels near and far to deal with these other-word maladies--often at the risk of his own life. Taima's investigation leads him to Dunwich, Massachusetts, where he meets another needle wielder, Kyogo Ayakashi. As they encounter ancient evils that are best kept secret, how will these taimashin masters bait their prey? 

Kikuchi personally selected Saiko Takaki, a doujinshi and graphic designer illustrator who has worked on numerous projects for the manga and game industries in Japan, to be the mangaka responsible for the adaptation of his successful novel series into manga form.
