The main character, Kaze, the masterless ronin, is continuing his search for the daughter of his dead lord. The lord was on the losing side of a battle to determine who would be the next Shogun. His daughter was sold off by a vengeful lord on the winning side. Kaze has been given a duty to find her and rescue her.
In this book the fact that Kaze is a wanted criminal because he was on the losing side comes more to the front, and inhibits some of his actions.
He is caught up with a wealthy merchant who is obsessed with his wife, a crazy grandmother on a mission of sanctioned revenge, thieves who are after the merchant, and a mystery about the merchant, his wife, and his enemies.
The book is well written and has interesting information about Japan of that time. The main character is well done. Overall the book is quick, light read. (
