Parker's engrossing historical novels bring eleventh-century Japan to life in all its colorful, treacherous glory. As \u003ci\u003eBlack Arrow\u003c\/i\u003e opens, Sugawara Akitada assumes his new post as provisional governor of Echigo, a frigid province in the far north notorious for its hostility to outsiders. But the snow that threatens to completely isolate the region is the least of his problems-which include a local uprising, a series of brutal murders, and a mystery that's as old as the frozen hills and a lot more dangerous. Superbly written and rich in period detail, \u003ci\u003eBlack Arrow\u003c\/i\u003e is another bravura performance from a master of the historical thriller.","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47116398657776,"sku":"9781101042779","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781101042779_p0.jpg?v=1763684792","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781101042779","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
