A world of bloodshed is the only one Saitō Tsuru has lived in.

After the Saitō clan's loss of power, her father sends her, and her brother to the Fujiwara clan, with hope of shelter from the brutal murders and ploys from feudal lords hungry for control.

It feels like the home she's never had, until an assassination attempt is made on the daimyō, with evidence of the perpetrator pointing to her brother.

With a death penalty above Kansuke's head, Tsuru works with Ryūnosuke, the charming heir of the Fujiwara, in a desperate attempt to prove her beloved brother's innocence. He points her to the one thing that may very well secure his freedom; a cursed village, rumoured to have old ties to the Fujiwara.

However, as the lines between loyalty and betrayal begin to intersect, dark long-buried tensions are beginning to rise again. Tsuru must unravel herself from the web of lies, and choose who she can trust - before her enemies outwit her and tear apart all she's ever worked for.

                                                ***

    A fantasy novel set against the chaotic backdrop of the late 16th century Sengoku Period in Japan, it centres around one girl's desire for identity, strength, and her discovery of what strength truly is among times of disputes and politics, and a struggle for power.

Mercy & Fire oleh daughteroftMH

Adrenaline pumped in my veins as I pressed myself against the large tree trunk, hoping the darkness would conceal me from my impending doom. My heart hammered against my ribs and cold sweat gathered at my palms and chest. His armor clanked and clinked, scraping against itself as he grew closer and closer... Then silence. "Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey. "Found you." *** Roselena is satisfied with helping her father run his printing business in her childhood village, but in the face of kingdom rising against kingdom, she finds herself thrown into a world of political tensions, magical beings, and the plot of a God. She struggles to define who she is, what she believes, and who she can trust. Worst of all, she seems to have been snared by a cruel King who can't seem to leave her alone.
