She tricks her brother, Kenshin, and betrothed, Raiden, into thinking she was being held by the Black Clan against her will, playing the part of the dutiful bride-to-be to infiltrate the emperor's ranks and uncover the truth behind the betrayal that almost left her dead. Pretending to be consumed with her upcoming nuptials, Mariko uncovers a political scheme that threatens the very safety of the empire. -- adapted from amazon.com
