    About this audiobook

    One of history's most amazing armies is born, and its soldiers wear silk robes.

    Lady Mochizuki Chiyome is mired in grief. Recently widowed by Japan's endless civil war, she has become tired of mourning, tired of wearing the white robes that are the traditional Japanese garb of grief. On the road, she encounters two young women who open her eyes to a whole new purpose in life - and a new way to end Japan's century of bloodshed.

    An Author's Republic audio production.
