Flame In The Mist

Beskrivelse

Mariko, daughter of a respected samurai family and a skilled alchemist, faces a future shaped by tradition rather than choice. When a deadly ambush threatens her life, she must take matters into her own hands by going undercover to uncover the truth behind the attack.

A daring journey of disguise, danger, and unexpected love.

At just seventeen, Mariko’s fate seems sealed-she is promised to Minamoto Raiden, the emperor’s favorite consort’s son, in a political marriage designed to boost her family’s status. Despite her sharp intellect and alchemical talents that rival her brother Kenshin’s, her role as a daughter limits her freedom.

While traveling to the imperial city of Inako, Mariko narrowly escapes an ambush by the Black Clan, a ruthless gang hired to kill her before she reaches the palace. Determined to survive and find out who is behind the attack, she disguises herself as a peasant boy and infiltrates the Black Clan.

Inside the gang, Mariko discovers a place where her skills are valued and respected for the first time. Along the way, she also finds herself falling in love, a feeling that challenges everything she has ever believed about her family, her destiny, and what she truly wants.
