The Shogun's executioner has received many strange last requests from those about to lose their head, some stranger than others. A woman condemned for murder wants her locks severed by the killing blade to be given to a lost love. An old man asks that his own decapitation follow that of his prized chrysanthemum, and that his executioner grow another from its cuttings. And elsewhere, the woman who once stole the weapons of samurai policemen is asked to serve as a cop herself to use her own unique skills to help solve a puzzling murder.

A comprehensive study of the life, philosophies, fighting strategies, and works of the legendary samurai warrior who wrote The Book of Five Rings Miyamoto Musashi, who lived in Japan in the fifteenth century, was a renowned samurai warrior. He has become a martial arts icon, known not just as an undefeated dueler, but also as a master of battlefield strategy. Kenji Tokitsu turns a critical eye on Musashi's life and writings, separating fact from fiction, and giving a clear picture of the man behind the myth. Musashi's best-known work, The Book of Five Rings, provides timeless insight into the nature of conflict. Tokitsu translates and provides extensive commentary on that popular work, as well as three other short texts on strategy that were written before it, and a longer, later work entitled "The Way to Be Followed Alone." Tokitsu is a thoughtful and informed guide, putting the historical and philosophical aspects of the text into context, and illuminating the etymological nuances of particular Japanese words and phrases. As a modern martial artist and a scholar, Tokitsu provides a view of Musashi's life and ideas that is accessible and relevant to today's readers and martial arts students.

Japanese martial arts are the envy of the world. Japan has proudly gifted the world with some of the best martial arts, is home to the most legendary swordsman of the world, Miyamoto Musashi. An iconic fighter, a samurai like none other, Musashi has fought as many as 60 duels by the time he was 30 years of age, all victorious. An audacious Musashi fought his first duel when he was still a child and that too against an opponent who was an adept samurai in one of the top-most schools in Kyoto. Having fought all through his childhood and adult life, Musashi retreated to a cave to live a life of privation and isolation. It is here that he birthed the epic The Book of Five Rings. A masterpiece tome on strategic fighting and dual sword fighting techniques, it is a book that is sought after even in the modern democratic world. This is the abridged story of the legendary samurai Musashi. An enigmatic personality that walked the earth in the 1600s, inventing the technique of wielding two swords at a time, mastering the art of fighting strategically, adroit and agile, Musashi remains the unmatched samurai in the martial arts realm. Though the samurai system is obsolete today, these legendary heroes continue to live as a beacon of inspiration in young Japanese minds.

When beautiful, wealthy Yukiko and low-born artist Noriyoshi are found drowned together in a shinju, or ritual double suicide, everyone believes the culprit was forbidden love. Everyone but newly appointed yoriki 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, Shinju vividly re-creates a world of ornate tearooms and guady pleasure-palaces, cloistered mountaintop convents and dealthy prisons. Part love story, part myster, Shinju is a tour that will dazzle and entertain all who enter its world. BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Laura Joh Rowland's The Shogun's Daughter.
