This item did belong to a library before but book and wrapper remained in a very good condition - Has their call number sticker at the bottom of the spine. >>> In this rich new mystery, Dale Furutani brings back Matsuyama Kaze, a wandering samurai searching for the missing daughter of his murdered lord. Clues lead Kaze to the new capital of 17th-century Japan, Edo, where the girl has been sold into child prostitution. While Kaze seeks to save the child, he is himself the subject of a manhunt, believed to be a hired assassin out to kill the shogun. >>> Kaze faces off against the authorities, snipers, ninja, and thugs as he tries to complete his quest and find his master's daughter. - It's too bad Dale Furutani only wrote three of these historical Japanese mystery novels. They are the perfect combination of hard boiled detective story and bloody samurai action. (Goodreads)
