A collection of four short stories. Chapter 1 is the 100 page title story. It's a supernatural shoujo about a man with one chance to escape from death, a mysterious woman he meets, and a tribe seeking to find its way back into Heaven. Chapter 2 deals with the mystery of a man gone missing, and presumed dead. Chapter 3 is a very short story about a couple in the mountains who pick up a strange guest. Chapter 4 is a longer story about the traditions binding a family, those that would break away from them, and the dark secret that holds the family in sway.

From Storm in Heaven:

A collection of short stories. The title story is about Youzuke; one summer when he was growing up, he stayed at his uncle's house. His uncle had a pool, and at night Youzuke would see a mermaid swimming there, visiting his uncle. Years and years have passed, and Youzuke's uncle has disappeared. Surprisingly enough, his will leaves the house to a stranger, Ayumi Kenjou. But when Youzuke meets Ayumi, it seems like he'd already met him that summer so very long ago.

Ritsu inherited his sixth sense from his grandfather, along with a demon guardian named Blue Storm. Strange things just seem to happen around these two, and it's left to them to get to the bottom of all these mysterious events. Each story is independent but features recurring characters you'll come to know and appreciate as they, each in their own way, try to deal with things 'not of this world'.

Quoted from Slash-kun's review:
"The reissue of the author's old works from mainly her djs (1991-1995). The short series of the cool romance between two cousins who love each other with a little guilt feeling. And three short stories (Stylish comedy like current author's taste. Hero finds his uncle after a long separation but the guy is not same man as his uncle.../ The forbidden relationship between hero and his young uncle-in-law seems to change after the birth of the baby of hero's sister.../ Re-issue of short story from "My beautiful green Palace". The researcher visits again the village of Merman legend to meet the mysterious guy / Kakioroshi - additional newly written sequel of the series. Cousins enjoy barbecue with their colleagues of their office)."
