A fox shapeshifter sworn to hide a mysterious scroll.
A secret assassin under orders to kill to obtain it.
One thousand years ago, the great Kami Dragon was summoned
to grant a single, terrible wish—and the Empire of Iwagoto
was thrown into an age of darkness and chaos. Now, for
whoever holds the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers, a new wish
will be granted. A new age is about to dawn.
Raised by monks in the isolated Silent Winds temple, Yumeko
has trained all her life to hide her true nature. Half
kitsune, half human, Yumeko has a skill with illusion that
is matched only by her penchant for mischief. Until the day
her home is burned to the ground, her adoptive family is
brutally slain and she is forced to flee with the temple’s
greatest treasure—one part of the ancient scroll.
Mysterious samurai Kage Tatsumi of the Shadow Clan is under
orders to retrieve the scroll at any cost. When chance
brings them together, an uneasy alliance is formed, offering
Yumeko her best hope for survival. Knowing he seeks what she
has hidden away, Yumeko begins the deception of a lifetime.
With an army of demons at her heels, and the unlikeliest of
allies at her side, Yumeko knows that her secrets are more
than a matter of life or death. They are the key to the fate
of the world itself.
