The Ennin Mysteries: Collected Stories 16-20

'Absolutely engaging... There is so much mystery here...' Joanna Daneman #1 HALL OF FAME AMAZON REVIEWER

THE RIVER-DANCER

A Shinto river-dancer lies dead, stabbed through the heart. Her lover - a wealthy merchant - is quickly charged with her murder, a bloodstained knife having been found concealed on his property...

Yet Ennin is determined to prove this man's innocence - in the face of almost overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

But just who, then, is the killer...?

THE TOUCH OF DEATH

A mysterious martial arts dojo - the 'Hall in the Sea of Waving Pines' - has become notorious for the sudden, inexplicable deaths of those young students it has previously expelled.

Ennin travels to the Hall in the Sea of Waving Pines to investigate - and there discovers a Chinese martial arts technique that is as ancient as it is deadly...

WABI-SABI

Ennin retells a classic Zen story from medieval Japan.

THE MAD DOG SICKNESS

A powerful daimyo is sick with a mysterious illness, which leaves him deeply afraid of water.

Ennin is asked to try and discover just what this strange sickness is - and whether there is any connection with the daimyo's recent, secretive trip to China...

THE RAIN PLAYER

One of Japan's most famous swordsmen has been found dead - but no one can say how he died...

A genius musician has built an instrument that can be played by the rain...

There is no relation between these two facts, surely...
