Takashi Natsume can see the spirits and demons that hide from the rest of humanity. He has always been set apart from other people because of his gift, drifting from relative to relative, never fitting in. Now he is a troubled high school student who has come to live in the small town where his grandmother grew up. And there he discovers that he has inherited more than just the Sight from the mysterious Reiko.

Since finding his grandmother's book, Natsume has been hunted, haunted, and almost made into an hors d'oeuvre! He's also met some really wonderful friends, both yokai and human. And now one of them desperately needs his help--but how can Natsume rescue Natori if the exorcist doesn't even know who he is?!
