Successful entrepreneur A.A. Abrams is pursing the enigmatic writer Tomoyuki Tomoyuki, who has the ability to write expertly in the language of any place they go. Abrams sinks endless resources into finding the writer, but Tomoyuki Tomoyuki always manages to stay one step ahead, taking off moments before being pinned down. But how does the elusive author move from one place to the next, from one language to the next?
