He impulsively joins the guru's sect and is swept up into life in a religious order. The guru's right-hand man Shiva and Youth Group director Komamura have completely opposite views on faith and what the purpose of their order should be, and Kazuo has his eyes opened to the fact that behind the order's pious façade lies towering egos, financial trickery, betrayal, backstabbing and seduction."--P.
