取り返しのつかないあの夜の過ちが、あったはずの平凡な人生を奪い去った。

激しい雨の降る夜、眠る夫を乗せた車で老婆を撥ねたかおりは轢き逃げの罪に問われ、服役中に息子・拓を出産する。出所後息子に会いたいがあまり園児連れ去り事件を起こした彼女は、息子との接見を禁じられ、追われるように西へ西へと各地を流れてゆく。自らの罪を隠して生きる彼女にやがて、過去にまつわるある秘密が明かされる。

The irreparable mistake of that night has taken away what should have been an ordinary life. On a rainy night, Kaori hits an old woman with her sleeping husband in her car, and is charged with hit-and-run. During the trial, she gives birth to her son, Taku. After being released from prison, she is so eager to see her son that she kidnaps a kindergartener. She is forbidden from seeing him, and is chased from place to place, drifting from place to place. As she lives her life hiding her crime, a secret from her past is eventually revealed. This is the latest full-length novel by the author of "How to Get Rid of Pigeons" (Yamada Futaro Prize winner) and "The Phases of the Moon" (Naoki Prize winner).
