(3) 4-6 Seikei (The Ghost in the Tokaido Inn), now sixteen and a full-fledged samurai, is sent back to his hometown on an errand for his adopted father, Judge Ooka. While there, Seikei becomes caught up in a smuggling drama and murder at the puppet theater. Details of the culture and mores of early-eighteenth-century Japan are well integrated into a fast-paced, satisfying mystery.
