THE WAGES OF CYNICISM

A battle-tested project leader at PR firm Cyberplan and a slippery bachelor, Sakuma is smug self-regard personified. But when his idea for a mini-theme park is dismissed as vacuous by client Nissei Auto, he's met his match- Katsuragi, an heir and executive at the global carmaker who believes life is but a game. Once the man's daughter teams up with Sakuma in a bid to come into her inheritance sooner rather than later...it's time for a good ol' kidnapping!
