The Miko

The incredible saga that began with Eric Van Lustbader's The Ninja, the blockbuster bestseller that set a new standard for exotic intrigue, now continues with The Miko. A revered sensei is brutally murdered by his favorite student, the only female student in this ancient jogo in the mountaintops of Japan. The murderess is Miko, a sorceress, indescribably beautiful, overpoweringly sensual, possessing incomprehensible powers. The murder of the beloved sensei is only the beginning of a deadly mission: she plans to use her powers to destry Nicholas Linnear.
