Japón, finales del siglo XVI. El país deja atrás la Era de los Estados en Guerra y se adentra en un titubeante periodo de paz. Entre las víctimas del largo conflicto se halla Seizo Ikeda, único superviviente del clan regente de la provincia de Izumo, huérfano a los nueve años tras el exterminio de su casa. Hostigado por los asesinos de su familia y condenado al destierro y al olvido, inicia un largo peregrinaje al amparo de Kenzaburo Arima, último samurái con vida del ejército de su padre, convertido ahora en su mentor. En el otro extremo del país, Ekei Inafune, un médico repudiado por aplicar las artes aprendidas entre los bárbaros llegados de Occidente, se ve implicado en una conjura urdida a la sombra de los clanes más poderosos del país. Una conspiración capaz de acabar con el frágil periodo de calma que da comienzo. Una novela cruda y bella, cargada de matices, que nos hace viajar a través de un Japón devastado por más de dos siglos de guerra, entre cuyas cenizas, sin embargo, florecen los más hermosos cerezos.
