THE SIX SAMURAI OF THE WEST (Book 4)
Japan is in the later part of the feudal era and America is in the decline of the gold rush period. Unbeknownst to Daimyo Nakabiashi, his entire feudal estate was traded away by a high ranking samurai retainer for the deed to a gold mine in America. When hearing this news, the Shogun orders Daimyo Nakabiashi to go to America to sell the mine. To add to the problem, Nakabiashi and his samurai only speak Japanese. The scheming Shogun's solution is to send a multilingual geisha to accompany Nakabiashi and his five samurai retainers to America.
Will their delicate geisha interpreter be a liability or an asset?
KAWAHARA LIVES (Book 5)
Having worked his way up from a lower class son of a samurai to the level of daimyo, the Japanese civil war has ruined everything. Accused for crimes he did not commit, the disgraced Daimyo Kawahara has lost his province, family, wealth and status. Luckily he was able to escape Japan with his life. As an outlaw without a plan, who speaks no English, Kawahara accidentally ends up in Jasper City, a lawless upstart town on the west coast of America.
Should he use his skills for monetary gain? Or should he use restraint, and adhere to the idealistic moral code of a samurai that he has always known? To survive in Jasper City, he might not have a choice.
THE GEISHA RETURNS (Book 6)
The feudal era has ended. New reforms and modernization have swept through Japan. The massive change has made the long established daimyo, the wealthy families, and yakuza gangs compete with one another for position and influence in the fledgling government. Unrevealed to the participants, subversive elements are at work to reverse the new reforms.
Will the old ways overcome the new?
