From the creators of Last Inning, follow an ex-convict's path to redemption riddled with vengeance, betrayal, and deadly conspiracies - the stakes are too high for him to strikeout off the pitch. After serving nine years for a crime he didn't commit, Hachiya Ken is free-but his past is far from behind him. Released from prison, he's confronted by Hana, the fiery daughter of a ghost from his past. Together, they're forced to navigate a deadly web of betrayal, yakuza power, and political corruption. As they uncover a conspiracy that runs deeper than either could have imagined, Ken must confront his own demons-and decide how far he's willing to go for redemption. From the dynamic creative duo of Nakamura Yuu and Kamio Ryuu, who delivered the brilliant baseball manga Last Inning, Stray is a relentless crime thriller where nothing is what it seems. Can Ken survive long enough to expose the truth, or will his next swing be his last, as he strikes out in this game of power.
