It remains to this day among the most read of Japanese detective mysteries. Using their flesh as canvas, the yakuza made full body tatoos their badge of defiiance. A seam was left in the design so that they could be collected after death in one piece without distirbing the pattern. The most famous collection is housed in Tokyo University and it is from hthere that a most unusual murder occurs - the victim's own full-body tattoo has been stolen; the "canvas" mutilated. Book.
