Revenge of the Bakeneko

<p>A dice game in the hands of Takana Gozen is anything but a matter of chance. Takana covets golden <em>ry��</em> coins almost as much as she hates <em>yakuza</em> and she is a master at manipulating both as she hosts backroom gambling events to pay off her deadbeat father's debt. She's spent the last eight years wandering the <em>Nikk�� Kaid��</em> highway living the life of a homeless vagabond-stealing cheating and killing-all in the never-ending pursuit of coin.</p><p>Instigated by the lowliest of prostitutes in the brothel Takana's mother runs a series of brutal deadly events break Takana out of debt and she earns the power to oppose the very structures that bound her. The found family she collects along the way looks to her for leadership and together they form their own <em>yakuza </em>clan-the most prosperous and feared in all of Eastern Japan: The Bakeneko Clan.</p><p>Takana has trained her whole life to survive deadly encounters but the risks that come with being a clan head come in more forms than <em>katana</em> and <em>kunai</em>. Protection love compassion friendship and sacrifice will all be necessary if she is to survive her new life-a life that proves to be more dangerous and unfulfilling than the old one.</p>
