About this Series

Laura Joh Rowland’s acclaimed Sano Ichiro novels, set in seventeenth-century Japan, are riveting, richly imagined, and suspenseful. As Sano navigates a treacherous political landscape, he works to protect the people of Edo, his family, and his honor to the samurai code—the Way of the Warrior—in these compelling thrillers.

“In addition to intricate plotting, Rowland’s consistent strength throughout her series has been the authority she brings to her portraits of her idiosyncratic characters and their world. Her descriptions of the rituals, fixtures and worldview of feudal Japan never seem like mere wallpaper, but rather are elements crucial to the crimes that bedevil her characters.”—The Washington Post (on The Iris Fan)
