Bottleneck (ボトルネック) is a one-off novel written by Honobu Yonezawa, the renowned author of Hyouka and the Petite Bourgeoisie Series.
Story Synopsis
Bottleneck is a youth mystery novel set in Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture where Ryo Sagano, a first-year high school student, visits the Tojinbo cliffs to pay respects to his girlfriend, Nozomi Suwa, who tragically fell two years prior. Upon his arrival, Ryo receives a call from his mother telling him that his brother has just passed away and to return immediately. To not make his trip a waste, Ryo attempts to briefly pay his respects while reflecting on Nozomi’s death. However, while mourning, he mysteriously loses consciousness, and like Nozomi, falls off a cliff at Tojinbo. Unexpectedly, Ryo awakens in Kanazawa, his hometown, confounded but grateful to be alive. However, his relief is short-lived as he finds someone he has never met living comfortably in his home: a woman claiming to be a member of the household, identifying herself as Sagano Saki. But Ryo does not have a sister. During his conversation with Saki, Ryo realizes that he has been transported to a world he was not born in. As Ryo and Saki look at the differences between the world he was in and the world Saki is in and search for clues to what happened to him.
