Path of the Assassin
Volume 12: Three Foot Battle
As the clans of sixteenth century Japan battle for supremacy, the allied forces of warlords Oda Nobunaga and Togugawa Ieyasu close in on the Asakura clan's main fortress. But awaiting Oda is an assassins's bullet that could shatter the Oda-Tokugawa alliance and shift the tide of war. Ieyasu's loyal ninja, Hattori Hanzō will kill the hidden gunman if he can, but even Hanzō may not be able to stop a shooting from beyond the grave!
From the legendary creators of Lone Wolf and Cub, Path of the Assassin blends martial action, courtly intrigue, and bold eroticism within the historical context of sixteenth-century feudal Japan.
