One year after the nightmarish murders depicted in "The Perfect Insider," Associate Professor Sohei Saikawa, accompanied by his student Moe Nishinosono, a sophomore at N University, visits the low-temperature laboratory of the Polar Environment Research Center where his colleague works, and encounters a mysterious murder that occurred in the "isolated room."

With many people watching and in a perfectly locked room, the bodies of two graduate students, a man and a woman, were found. How did the victims and the murderer entered the locked room?

This book is the first volume of a three-volume English edition of "Doctors In the Isolated Room," the maiden work of Dr. MORI Hiroshi, the genius novelist.
