Three arson attacks strike Tokyo in a row. The methods have nothing in common, yet every scene is left with a red horse doll stained a blood-like crimson. Tracing this eerie "Red Horse" signature, Conan hunts for the arsonist's true intent. The three-part "Torn Friendship" then depicts the murderous intent lurking between two former best friends, and a strange case about a woman with a mole is also included. Combining the creepiness of a serial case with the sorrow of human bonds, it's a meaty, rewarding volume.

Case Closed Vol. 39 spoilers
⚠️ Spoilers ahead.
The Red Horse arsons look random but are actually camouflage to hide one specific target. The dolls are bait to derail the investigation, and Conan narrows down the real culprit from contradictions in the order and timing of the fires. In "Torn Friendship," jealousy and betrayal toward an old friend escalate into murder, with the killer hiding hatred behind a mask of friendship. From a small remaining clue, Conan exposes the truth of the shattered bond. The eerie doll gimmick and a very human motive both stand out.
