En savoir plus sur le livre

When beautiful, wealthy Yukiko and low-born artist Noriyoshi are found drowned together in a <i>shinju,</i> or ritual double suicide, everyone believes the culprit was forbidden love. Everyone but newly appointed <i>yoriki</i> Sano Ichiro. Despite the official verdict and warnings from his superiors, the shogun's Most Honorable Investigator of Events, Situations, and People suspects the deaths weren't just a tragedy; they were murder. Risking his family's good name and his own life, Sano will search for a killer across every level of society determined to find answers to a mystery no one wants solved. No one but Sano... As subtle and beautiful as the culture it evokes, <i>Shinju</i> vividly re-creates a world of ornate tearooms and gaudy pleasure-palaces, cloistered mountaintop convents and deathly prisons. <b>Part love story, part mystery, <i>Shinju</i> is a tour that will dazzle and entertain all who enter its world.</b>
