He used to work as a secretary for a politician, but he was forced to participate in the creation of illicit funds and suffered when his daughter committed suicide, leaving him with deep emotional wounds and regrets. Unable to overcome his past and unable to find hope for the future, Masaki meets an honest girl who is desperately searching for her family, and as he pursues the truth for her, he will change. The role of Mochizuki Maki, a girl who approaches the horrifying truth hidden in a certain town as Masaki's buddy, will be played by Aju Makita, who will be appearing in a WOWOW drama series for the first time since appearing as a child actor in the 2014 drama "W: Blood on the Tracks".

Maki, played by Makita, was separated from her parents as a baby and grew up in a children's home. With a note in hand, she visits the law firm where Masaki works and asks for a request to "find her family". She then visits a town where she once lived with her family, but learns of a past kidnapping and murder of a boy that occurred in that town... A brutal kidnapping and murder case once occurred in a peaceful new residential area where residents have a strong sense of community and crime prevention awareness, with the motto of "a safe and secure town." What is the connection to the disappearance of Maki's family? Why did the family, who should have been happy, disappear, leaving only Maki behind? Please do not look away from the shocking ending created by the monsters known as humans. -------------------------------- Cast: Yosuke Eguchi, Aju Makita, Mayu Tsuruta, Ichirota Miyagawa, Toshinori Omi, Genri, Shigeyuki Totsugi, Hirotaro Honda, Denden, Nene Otsuka Original story: Hiromi Sano's "Someone in This Town" (Kodansha Bunko) Director: Yuichi Sato "City Hunter", "Strawberry Night", "Absolute Zero" Screenplay: Yoichi Maekawa "Serial Drama W: The Magnificent Clan", "Serial Drama W: The Unbroken Sun" Music: Hideaki Kimura "Black Pean", "Serial Drama W: Shylock's Children", "Serial Drama W: That's Why I Couldn't Kill Her" Planning and Producer: Yasunori Aoki Producer: Mako Hirose Ayako Mizuno Production cooperation: Kyodo Television Production copyright: WOWOW #WOWOW #Someone in this town #Yosuke Eguchi #Aju Makita #Mayu Tsuruta #Ichirota Miyagawa #Toshinori Omi #Genri #Shigeyuki Totsugi #Hirotaro Honda #Den Den #Nene Otsuka #Hiromi Sano #Daremachi #Drama
