Описание: Sano Ichiro, Most Honorable Investigator of Events, Situations, and People is faced with his most challenging case when he investigates the death of Senior
Elder Makino, the shogun's most trusted adviser. There is only one puzzling clue-a torn, perfumed sleeve of a kimono. Under the watchful eyes of the shogun's cousin, Lord Matsudaira,
and the shogun's second-in-command, Chamberlain Yanagisaw, Sano moves with caution.
For each is eager to implicate the other in Makino's death. But Sano must
determine whether the death was indeed murder, and if so, whether it was motivated by politics, love, or sex. When a second violent death occurs, Sano is faced with several
suspects, each with a compelling motive.
Was it Agemaki, Makino's stone-faced second wife; Okitsu, his beautiful young concubine; Koheiji, his handsome male houseguest;
or Tamura, his faithful retainer? Or was it a political assassination? With the help of his wife, Reiko, Sano must solve the murder as he discovers just how intertwined desire and danger
really are...

Описание: Someone has set fire to a cottage on the premises of the prestigious Black Lotus Temple in 1691, Japan, killing three sect members. Veteran samurai -
detective Sano Ichiro, the Most Honourable Investigator of Events, Situations and People, is uncharacteristically quick to blame a delinquent orphan-girl found fleeing the scene. But his
young wife, Reiko, has different ideas.
After hearing rumours of ill doings within the sect, and using information privy only to a woman of the samurai class, Reiko finds that
newcomers to the Black Lotus are mysteriously disappearing almost as quickly as the sect can convert them. Unfortunately for the orphan and all who have disappeared in the name of
the Black Lotus, no one will believe Reiko. If only she can convince her husband before he condemns an innocent to burn at the stake...This is the latest in a smashingly-received and
best-selling series starring Sano Ichiro.
Now, since the introduction of his winsomely take-charge wife, the series, set in the luscious finery of the samurai court of medieval
Japan, has won an enormous following.
