Psychic Detective Yakumo (心霊探偵 八雲, Shinrei Tantei Yakumo?) is a novel by Manabu Kaminaga published in Nihon Bungeisha with illustrations by Katoh Akatsuki and later in Kadokawa Bunko with cover illustrations by Yasushi Suzuki. The book has been adapted into two manga series, a live-action drama series and a stage play.

After stopping to help a man lying in the street, Hijikata Makoto (a reporter and daughter of the chief of police), is possessed by the man's spirit once he passes away. The next day Haruka is asked by a girl to investigate the death of a schoolgirl named Ayaka. While Yakumo is asked by Gotou to investigate the possession of Hijikata as a plea from the chief.

While investigating the death of the schoolgirl Ayaka, Haruka saw the ghost of the schoolgirl and fell into the river while trying to communicate with the soul. She was saved by 2 policemen and taken to a clinic to recover. Coincidentally, Gotou and Yakumo were also at the clinic to ask Dr Kinoshita some questions about their investigation.

Dr Kinoshita revealed that he was the doctor that delivered Yakumo and asked after his mother. Yakumo revealed his mother tried to kill him 10 years ago when he was a child. A policeman (possibly Gotou) managed to scare her off and she fled from the scene. She has been missing since that night. During the attack, Yakumo snapped the red pendant from his mother's neck.

Yakumo pleaded with Dr Kinoshita to let him know his mother's reaction when she saw her newborn son with a red left eye. Dr Kinoshita revealed that she was scared out of her mind. This lead Yakumo to believe he was an unwanted child. Haruka overheard the entire conversation about Yakumo's mother as she was standing outside the door.

Ayaka is the daughter of Dr Kinoshita who died during a typhoon and drown in the river. The doctor was also close to Dr Andou Takashi (the ghost possessing Hijikata Makoto). Gotou and Yakumo revealed that they connect Dr Kinoshita to Andou from a photo in Andou's belongings. There was also 2 keys in his belongings. One led to a locker with a bag full of money. Gotou and Yakumo managed to track the 2nd key to a storeroom near a dam. They found a missing girl Hashimoto Rumi along with belongings of 2 murdered young girls. The police believed that Dr Andou was the murderer of the 2 girls.
