LIAN HEARN
Small Paperback
Lord Otori Takeo and his wife Kaede have ruled for over sixteen years. The Three Nations became a rich, peaceful and prosperous country. The sacred bird, houou, nests in Terayama and a fairytale animal, kirin, appears on the shore. Presumably Nirvana was smiling at them. But their success caught the attention of the Emperor and his general, Lord Saga Hideki, who were eyeing all the wealth of the Three Kingdoms, especially Takeo's heir, his eldest daughter, Shigeko, who was now old enough to marry. At the same time, the acts of violence and betrayal of the past do not disappear away. The defected Tribe family, Kikuta, seeks revenge. They want to ally with Takeo's sister-in-law, Arai Zenko, who can never forget or forgive the death of his biological father in a humiliating way. No one can escape the target of the Tribe forever. Takeo worries about many other things, more than anything, his twin daughters, Maya and Miki, with their strange abilities, bringing them into a world full of shadows and ghosts. And other secrets that cannot continue to be hidden tightly. Everything he has achieved with Kaede is on the line. Harsh Cry of the Heron is a stunning sequel to the 'Story of the Ruling Clan', an unforgettable epic with a vast expanse of emotional side, a classic that transcends genre, gender and generation.
