Musuko (Book Two of the Kakureta Hana series)

Bloodshed...Birthright...Betrayal. Can he ever discover the truth?

"The first and only time that I dared to call Igarashi Sakura 'Mother', she placed a hand across my mouth and pulled me close. For a long moment, she was silent, no part of her moving except for her chest and the tears that fell from her eyes. Finally, she leaned close to my ear, whispering, 'Swallow those words, Kazuhiko, for your mother is not me. She died years ago, and the moment someone hears you call me that, all of our lives shall be forfeit.'"

The young Lord Amachi Kazuhiko never questioned why his father's once-loyal general and his wife raised him. He never questioned why the last of his father's advisers was given control of the clan until he came of age and not one of his dead mother's brothers. That is until he returns from battle to find his not-mother Sakura has been captured...on the battlefield.

Setting off on a journey to help Ryuu rescue his wife awakens questions that Kazuhiko never knew existed, and he begins to seek answers. Where did he truly come from? Why did the general betray his father? How did Sakura come to be on the battlefield? And what was with the girl that looked eerily similar to him?

The truth may set him free, but it may also kill him in the meantime.
