Would you like to be whisked away to Japan, wherever you are?

It’s the year 1784 and the shōgun rules with an iron fist . . . except within the walled pleasure quarter of Yoshiwara. Inside the Great Gate, samurai law does not apply, and it’s women who pull the strings

—James Ziskin, Anthony, Barry, and Macavity Award-winning author of the Ellie Stone mysteries
