Book Review: An Historical Mystery
Summary: 4 Stars
In 1693 Japan, Samurai-detective Sano Ichiro, is called in to investigate the remains of a fire in the Black Lotus temple where three people are found dead. Secretly, and against Japanese tradition at the time, Sano has an autopsy done on the three bodies only to discover that they were dead before their bodies were burnt. An orphan girl, Haru, is found near the scene but will not speak to anyone regarding the events. Against his better judgment, Sano asks his wife, Reiko, to assist him in interrogating the girl. Reiko is convinced of the Haru's innocence, despite the fact that she is a pathological liar. Investigating on her own, Reiko causes some stress on her marriage as she discovers that the Temple of the Black Lotus houses some very nasty secrets. The reader is continually on the edge of their seat, guessing what the outcome will be.
