Really enjoyed this story. It was an authentically written Japanese story. It has ghosts, thieves, samurais, and kabuki actors. Fast paced, and engaging, I am definitely interested in checking out the rest of the series. It reminded me a lot of 'The Tale of the Otori' series.

Started this a while ago and never picked it up again. Too busy with new releases. I am excited to get through it this time though. It's a short read, and it has an interesting synopsis. The writing style is also very authentically Japanese ghost story.
