Kaisho

Eric Van Lustbader

"Kaisho" is a novel by Eric Van Lustbader, part of his series about the Japanese warrior and detective, Nicholas Linn. This novel combines elements of thriller, action and mysterious conspiracies, characteristic of Lustbader's writing style.

In "Kaisho", the story focuses on Linn, who is searching for answers about his past mission. In the book, he deals with the issue of inner struggle and spiritual development, because he came into contact with the mysterious world of Japanese traditions and samurai codes. On his journey, he faces numerous threats, both physical and mental, including conspiracies that lead to shocking revelations.

Throughout the novel, van Lustbader explores themes of loyalty, honor, and the struggle between tradition and the modern world, often using the martial arts and philosophy of the East as a backdrop to the action.

The novel is deeply rooted in Japanese culture and philosophy, and "Kaisho" is a name used in the context of Japanese martial tradition, meaning something like "respect" or "instruction" – a reference to the deep spiritual quest of Linn and the characters themselves in the story.
