In an elegant mansion a young woman named Tsuruhime lies on her deathbed, attended by her nurse. Smallpox pustules cover her face. Incense burns, to banish the evil spirits of disease. After Tsuruhime takes her last breath, the old woman watching from the doorway says, Who's going to tell the Shogun his daughter is dead? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe death of the Shogun's daughter has immediate consequences on his regime. There will be no grandchild to leave the kingdom. Faced with his own mortality and beset by troubles caused by the recent earthquake, he names as his heir Yoshisato, the seventeen-year-old son he only recently discovered was his. Until five months ago, Yoshisato was raised as the illegitimate son of Yanagisawa, the shogun's favorite advisor. Yanagisawa is also the longtime enemy of Sano Ichiro. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSano doubts that Yoshisato is really the Shogun's son, believing it's more likely a power-play by Yanagisawa. When Sano learns that Tsuruhime's death may have been a murder, he sets off on a dangerous investigation that leads to more death and destruction as he struggles to keep his pregnant wife, Reiko, and his son safe. Instead, he and his family become the accused. And this time, they may not survive the day.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLAURA JOH ROWLAND is the author of sixteen previous novels in her acclaimed series of thrillers set in feudal Japan; two of them have been named among the Best Mysteries of the Year by \u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e, while a third was declared one of the five best historical mystery novels by \u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eThe Incense Game\u003c\/i\u003e won the \u003ci\u003eRT Book Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e Reviewers' Choice Award for Best Historical Mystery.
