Grass for his Pillow ( Editura: Picador, Autor: Lian Hearn ISBN 0-330-41273-6 )

Takeo, heir to the great Otori clan, has pledged his life to the secret Tribe. his supernatural skills of virtual invisibility and acute hearing make him their most deadly assassin. But he must deny the solemn oath of vengeance he made, his adopted birthright of wealth, land and power- his love for Kaede. If he does not devote himself entirely to the brutal ways of the Tride, they will kill him. Whichever path the chooses, it will lead to hardship and sacrifice in the bitter winter of the high mountains, and test him to the limits of his being.
Kaede, heiress to vast lands, is now the valuable pawn of ruthless warlords. She must use her intelligence, beauty and cunning to assert her place in a world of all-powerful men - who must never suspect the dangerous secret she hides.
