Loosely based on Clement's golden age title Needle (Doubleday, 1952), Tadano's gripping homage follows the life of a teenage girl whose melancholy days are dramatically changed when her body becomes host to an alien life form caught up in an interplanetary manhunt. On the surface, Hikaru may appear to be an average high school girl. Headphone-wearing and cellphone-clicking, Hikaru might be slightly more aloof than most, but inside of her is something powerful enough to change the world.
