Asayi: An Autistic Teen's Journey to Topple a Shogun in Medieval Japan (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798990035829)

There's harrowing tension in being Asayi. But join Asayi's circle to oppose a punitive regime. Court intrigues swirl, underbelly characters from different levels of society emerge, deceptions reign, yet truth emerges at the end.

Layers of nuance unfold: the vulnerability of an autistic young woman in a merciless time period; political unrest, physical survival, secret identities, and finding one's tribe and love while facing injustices and revolts that are just as real as today's inequities and discontents.

The underdogs prevail in this remarkable medieval Japanese saga replete with true to life characters, political and personal sagas, and the enduring Asian cultural icon: the ghost.
