Three sisters who weaponize paper solve mysteries that keep dragging them toward a conspiracy nobody warned them about. The show treats its premise with complete seriousness, building a world where the ability to control paper becomes the lens through which entire histories rewrite themselves. By the end, you realize the real mystery was never the case, it was whether these three could stay together after learning what they're actually protecting.
Nenene Sumiregawa is a Japanese novelist stuck with writer's block since her longtime friend Yomiko Readman vanished. Her life shifts when she meets three sisters from Hong Kong, Anita, Maggie and Michelle, who can control paper and run a detective agency devoted to cases involving books. Hired as her local guides, they rescue her from terrorists at a book signing and stay on as her bodyguards. Book lovers Maggie and Michelle adore Nenene's novels, while young Anita cannot stand reading despite her powers. Guarding Nenene in Japan while taking jobs from a mysterious organization called Dokusensha, the sisters start to see a link between Nenene, Yomiko's disappearance and the strange books they are sent to investigate. The bond the four form is tested as they travel the world against evil forces bent on seizing control, led by a mastermind named Mr. Carpenter. The result mixes action, drama, mystery and science fiction.
