But it is not only fallen blossom that gathers in the streets and woodland of Edo city – there too a terrible villainy lies hidden.\u003cbr\u003eWhen the fearless swordswoman Mifuyu returns to her secluded lodging, her long-awaited repose is shattered: while she rests one day, a group of intruders slip into the house with violent intent. Their attack is as swift and silent as it is inexplicable – and it takes all of her skill to beat them back. Her friend and ally Daijiro soon discovers that the men were not common burglars, but mysterious ronin hunting a ghost from the house’s past. What starts as a puzzling intrusion soon draws him and his father into a tangle of shifting identities, forgotten residents, and shadowy figures whose motives dissolve like mist in the morning light. . .\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Man in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003ethe Mist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, the brilliant third instalment in Shotaro Ikenami’s masterful \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eSamurai Detectives\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e series, mystery, swordplay, and human drama entwine to illuminate the secrets of one the most bewitching periods in Japanese history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48103683817623,"sku":"9781405975803","price":699.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781405975803.webp?v=1786008525","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-samurai-detectives-9781405975803","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
