The Ronin Inheritance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798184211565)

A village burned. A name erased from the records. An inheritance that cannot be surrendered.

When the shogunate's soldiers ride into Ashibara, they are looking for something specific. They find it under his uncle's floorboards. By the time Kenji understands what it is - a clan seal, officially extinguished, the bloodline declared ended eighteen years ago - his uncle is dead and the soldiers are already north.

He has eleven days.

Eleven days before the prisoner his uncle died protecting is transferred beyond reach. Eleven days to cross a country that is watching for him, find a mentor the records say doesn't exist, learn a discipline he's never been taught, and walk into a fortress that has never fallen.

The Ronin Inheritance is a feudal Japan reimagining of an epic myth - patient, precise, and deeply human. It is a story about what gets passed down and what gets hidden. About the difference between a legacy wielded and a legacy kept. About a young man who discovers that the most dangerous thing his father ever did was survive.

The ki is not magic. The battles are not won by the strongest. And the seal in his pocket is not a weapon.

It is a question.
