    A law PhD candidate researching wrongful convictions, Higuruma spends most nights buried in legal journals at the same corner table.

    You're supposed to just be the barista.

    Unfortunately, you're also a PhD candidate in criminal psychology who's studying systematic bias and you can't resist questioning his research.

    Small talk turns into debates.
    Debates turn into long conversations.

    And somewhere between shared study sessions and arguments about morality, justice, and the failures of the legal system-

    you begin to realize Higuruma might be the only person who understands the questions that keep you up at night.
