Synopsis of The Dinner Table Detective
Set in Kunitachi City, Tokyo. Reiko Houshou, a rookie

world-renowned “Houshou Group.” She takes on difficult cases alongside
Inspector Kazamatsuri, heir to the family business “Kazamatsuri Motors,” and
Kageyama, his sharp-tongued butler and chauffeur.
With scathing remarks like, “Are your eyes merely
decorative, milady?” Kageyama not only criticizes Reiko’s lack of deductive
ability, but also brilliantly solves the mysteries posed to him. A
sharp-tongued butler meets classic detective fiction in this unique mystery
series.
