[From back cover] A young woman is determined to be a warrior. But fate has other plans... Dangling from cliffs, scaling walls, surviving alone in the forest - becoming a ninja is grueling, but it's all Chiyome's ever dreamed of. Her dream suddenly ends, however, when she's married off to the nephew of a fierce warlord. It's not until a tragic event occurs that she sees a chance to fulfill her destiny. This tale of espionage, war, and intrigue in 16th century Japan is based on the true story of Machizuki Chiyome and her all-female spy network. An exhilarating journey through villages castles, and battlefields, Shadow Warrior vividly depicts the rigors of ninja training, the struggles of daily life, and the thrill of accomplishing a secret mission.
