She travels on a merchant ship across the sea from Japan, slaying pirates as she goes. She expects a moment of respite when she arrives in San Francisco. Instead, she is thrown in prison. Her diplomatic mission was a set-up to get her out of the emperors way.An Army officer, also trained in the Samurai way, soon rescues her. Together, they learn of a misguided plot by Native American chief, Raven Black, to usurp and take over the seat of United States military power in California. Sen-hi vows to stop Raven Black, but he has dark magic with unprecedented reach that makes him a difficult adversary.Sen-hi traverses the epic landmarks of the Western frontier as she is pursued and hunted by Raven Black and his minions of darkness. As battles rage, Sen-hi questions whether she should go to war or find a way to peace. Will her final decision lead to victory or bloody death? It all depends on whether she can survive the spirit of evil.
