About this listen

 The winter of 1578, four years prior to the Honno–ji Incident. Araki Murashige has betrayed his ally Oda Nobunaga and holed himself up in Arioka Castle—but a string of unsettling incidents within the castle walls has him at his wit’s end. The desperate warlord’s only hope for solving these mysteries is imprisoned in the castle’s dungeon: a man named Kuroda Kanbei, one of Oda’s most gifted strategists. When all the conflict and intrigue come to a close, what will these two men have gained…and lost? Award–winning author Honobu Yonezawa’s English–language debut is a page–turning blend of historical and detective fiction. Historical International Mystery & Crime Mystery

I’m writing in superlatives because this book and the narration deserve only superlatives. Yonezawa fittingly won the Naoki Prize for this and Louis Ozawa is an incredible narrator.

What an incredible book and equally amazing narration
