Sano Ichiro, the formidable hero of Laura Joh Rowland's series of ancient Japan, does it again. This time he not only has to investigate the death of a high official, he has to do it under the guard of the two factions who are in the midst of a civil war. The Perfumed Sleeve not only gives glimpses of the history of Japan, it also keeps the reader guessing as to who was responsible for the murder and has a surprise ending as to how it was done. Good reading as all of Ms. Rowland's books are.
