The scenario introduces a single investigator to the longer Les 5 supplices campaign. The story is intended to take one to two hours to complete. At its conclusion, the investigator has met a young Shiro Ishii, a man while will become a notorious Japanese war criminal for his medical experiments. Likewise, the investigator gains some familiarity with the plague germs Ishii is after, setting the stage for a similar confrontation later in the campaign.
