Download Daughter of the Sword: A Novel of the Fated Blades AudioBook Free
Mariko Oshiro is not your average Tokyo cop. As the one feminine detective in the city's most elite police unit, she has to fight for each ounce of value, especially from her new manager. While she wishes to track down a rumored cocaine shipment, he offers her the least promising case possible. However the case - the attempted fraud of a vintage samurai sword - demonstrates more dangerous than anyone on the make could have thought. Who owns the sword, Teacher Yasuo Yamada, says it was constructed by the renowned Grasp Inazuma, a sword smith whose blades are rumored to have magical qualities. The man trying to steal it already possesses another Inazuma - one whose lethal power eventually comes to control all who wield it. Or so says Yamada, and though he has studied swords and swordsmanship all his life, Mariko isn't convinced. But Mariko's skepticism rarely matters. Her investigation has put her on the collision course with a curse centuries old and as bloodthirsty as ever. She is only the latest in an extended line of warriors and soldiers to confront this power, and even the sword she learns to wield could turn against her.
