Can one girl stop a killer?
The future of Japan hangs in the balance, and it’s up to a girl who likes to climb to save the day
Two armies have descended on the Full Moon, Lady Chiyome’s school for young shrine maidens (and assassins), and the war that has torn Japan apart for over a century threatens to destroy the school’s fragile peace.
In this thrilling sequel to Risuko: A Kunoichi Tale, Risuko must face warlords, samurai, angry cooks, a monster in the hills, the truth about her father, a spy among the kunoichi…
And a murderer.
Someone kills a Takeda lieutenant, staging it to look like suicide. Can Risuko figure out who would do such thing?
And can she keep it from happening again?
Praise for Risuko (Seasons of the Sword #1):
Risuko is an artfully crafted novel that evokes a heavy sense of place and enchantment…Risuko’s development and evolution are fascinating to watch in this powerful and relentless coming-of-age adventure. - Foreword Reviews
