Your body is their business! Five strange young students at a Buddhist university - three guys and two girls - find little call for their job skills in today's Tokyo... among the living, that is. But all that stuff in college they were told would never pay off - you know, channeling, dowsing, ESP - gives them a direct line to the dead... the dead who are still trapped in their corpses and can't move on to the next reincarnation. The five form the Kurosagi ("Black Heron" - as opposed to the white stork which brings babies into this world...) Corpse Delivery whether suicide, murder, accident or illness, they'll carry your body wherever it needs to go to free your soul! In Volume 2, The Corpse Delivery Service has helped the dead who wanted justice from the living. Now, think about how many living people would like to take vengeance on the dead. What if it were possible? When Sasaki realizes that the latest corpse in their office is the man who murdered her parents years ago, the Kurosagi crew learns of a far darker business than their own, in this intensely disturbing one-volume story.

But all that stuff in college they were told would never pay off gives them a direct line to the dead... the dead who are still trapped in their corpses and can't move on to the next reincarnation. The five form the Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service: whether suicide, murder, accident, or illness, they'll carry your body wherever it needs to go to free your soul! In Volume 12: Second Death, two bodies found in the woods - one not-quite-departed, the other horribly mutilated - lead the Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service to investigate a private online community. The virtual world offers you the chance to do all kinds of things in simulation that you couldn't do in life... but are you sure everyone playing is still alive?
There's competition on all sides in the body baggage game, when Kurosagi finds its rather loose business model challenged by a corporate rival who guarantees the next world on time! But it's not only the clean-cut trying to dig into their market. The oddball duo calling itself the White Heron Corpse Cleaning Service aren't just out to eat Kurosagi's wormy lunch, they're going to start revealing trade secret - namely, the hideous history behind the ghost which haunts Karatsu!
Heads up! That's what the Kurosagi crew sees floating in midair - above a moving motorcycle! But this headless horseman in reverse is linked to a corpse that can be smelled and felt, but not seen! Then, the mystery moves from sight to sound, as the last words of an elderly veteran reveal the hideous crime behind a secret program of World War II - whose effects can still be heard...
