Flame in the Mist

(4) YA When the convoy of seventeen-year-old Hattori Mariko, daughter of a prominent samurai, is attacked en route to meet her betrothed, she escapes into the haunted forest nearby. Disguised as a peasant boy, Mariko joins the Black Clan, a ninja-like group, whom she suspects of the attack. Despite melodramatic prose and uneven world-building, this should appeal to fans of romantic YA fantasy. Glos.
