Book
The Funaji Scroll
First published 2026
Gennojō and his companions return to Osaka and attempt to secure passage by sea into the forbidden Awa domain. The agents who have followed them across Japan close in aboard vessels crossing the Kitan Strait, while the lord of Awa prepares for the possible exposure of his plans.
A storm and a struggle at sea scatter allies, enemies and evidence along the coast of Shikoku. By moving the pursuit from roads to ships, the fourth volume turns the domain’s geographical isolation into the central obstacle separating the investigators from the conspiracy’s source.
