The Tengu's Jewels (Shinoda Monogatari)

By Paula O'Keefe

The youkai haven of Shinoda Forest is at peace, but under the calm surface of summer dark currents are stirring. The wounds of war, both outer and inner, are slow to heal, and old enemies plan and dream of revenge. The Fox Queen sets out on a pilgrimage, leaving her daughter Benihane and grandson Komori to care for the Forest, only to plunge them into a crisis that will test their strength and wisdom to the limit. A treasure is stolen; the Tengu Queen suspects one of her own, and enlists the assassin-spy Shao - half human, half cat youkai, and Komori's beloved- as her agent. But unknown to either of them, the search will lead into Shao's own past. What will Shao find? Will his love for Komori pass an unexpected test? Has the dragon samurai Tsuki drifted too far away from his humanity to return? And what manner of creatures live in the strange, shining Other Ousakah?
