Więcej o książce

In the New Year of 1861, Japan faces a cultural upheaval as it opens its doors to the West, with foreign ships threatening the Shogun’s castle in Edo. Amidst this turmoil, a group of American missionaries, including Emily Gibson, seeking redemption, and Matthew Stark, a cold-eyed killer, arrive to spread their faith. Unbeknownst to them, their destinies are intertwined with that of Lord Genji, a young nobleman who has prophetic dreams of an outsider saving his life. Despite being seen as a dilettante and infamous for his romantic escapades with the celebrated geisha Lady Heiko, Genji possesses a unique ability passed down through generations. As the Shogun’s secret police chief plots against him and his clan, Genji must prove his worth beyond his reputation. Forced to flee to Cloud of Sparrows Castle, he joins forces with Emily and Stark, along with his uncle, Lord Shigeru, a legendary swordsman, and the enigmatic Lady Heiko. Together, they embark on a perilous journey through a dangerous landscape, preparing for a climactic battle where horror and wonder intertwine, and love confronts vengeance, as East and West collide in unimaginable ways.
