In The Incense Game, Laura Joh Rowland's powerful and evocative thriller, Sano Ichiro and his wife strive to solve the case in a world that is crumbling around them. An RT Book Review Magazine Reviewers' Choice Award Winner In the wake of a terrifying earthquake, Sano races to solve a crime that could bring down the shogun's regime Japan, 1703. A devastating earthquake has left the city of Edo in shambles-even the shogun's carefully regulated court is teetering on the brink of chaos. This is no time for a murder investigation. But when Sano discovers the bodies of two young sisters buried beneath the rubble, he suspects that incense poisoning, not the earthquake, killed them. Worse yet, their father, a powerful nobleman, threatens to topple the vulnerable regime unless Sano agrees to track down his daughters' killer. With the help of his wife, Reiko, and his chief retainer, Hirata, Sano begins a secret investigation that jeopardizes his whole family. And with Hirata mysteriously neglecting his duties and an old foe plotting to overthrow Sano and the shogun himself, the shockwaves from the earthquake are only the beginning.
