Blood on the Torii Gate: Part One

About this ebook
Mother ran quickly toward Lisa, streaming flames like crimson and yellow banners from head to toe. She actually smiled at Lisa before throwing her through the picture window.
Lisa barely survives. Little does she know, this is only the beginning.
Investigators are unable to link the explosion killing Abby Thomas, Nori and Ling Iwasaki to the brutal murder the same night of Dr. Wayne Thomas, Lisa’s father.
Introverted Lisa, of American descent, is now being raised by the modest Japanese Iwasakis, who lost their only two daughters in the house fire. They mourn their losses, in the face of unrelenting attacks on the family and their friends. As the investigation continues, Lisa, a devout Shintoist, receives messages and guidance from her Kami. They reveal her life’s purpose, why she must battle to stay alive.
After another murder and two more attempts on Lisa’s life, the family is moved to an undisclosed location under the joint protection of the U.S. Criminal Investigation Unit and the Japanese Witness Protection Program. Navy Seal Team Leader and Criminal Investigator Ric Ant teams up with street-smart Detective Takeamine to infiltrate this case involving assassins and the undead.
“They have special powers and live forever. They said you’d never be able to catch them.”
The most harrowing attack of all transforms Lisa from a shy, sheltered girl to a fearless woman with an iron resolve. She risks all to avenge her murdered family and protect her new family from a century-old curse she knows nothing about.
Blood on the Torii Gate, Part Two will reveal the ultimate destinies of all involved.
