Journalist Shuichi Fujii receives a letter from convicted killer Junji Sudo. Writing from death row, Sudo wants to confess to further crimes.

Set up by Doc, Sudo seeks revenge and implores Fujii to find the evidence needed to bring in his former boss. Delving into the case, Fujii discovers a string of vicious crimes - extortion, torture, rape, and arson - in which the weak are preyed upon and the cruel rewarded.
