The first in a series of Japanese TV movies about a police detective who has adopted the dress and mannerisms of famous American TV detective Columbo, based on a series of novels by popular mystery author Yasuo Uchida. One day, Detective Takemura Iwao, also known as Shinano's Columbo, becomes the first person to discover a dismembered murder case.
