Another great book by about Sano Ichiro by Laura Joh Rowland. This is number two in the series, and it held up to be just as good as the first, Shinju. I absolutely love reading fiction books that incorporate Japanese history. What really intrigued me though, is that while reading this book, I found out that the author is not even Japanese. She has Chinese and Korean ancestry; I find that really funny that she wouldn't write about one of those cultures, and is so knowledgable about the history of the Japanese because a lot of the characters she uses are actually real people!
