SWORD & BLOSSOM 6/2007 ISBN: 0143112147 This is the true story of an extraordinary love affair that began when a young British Army officer fell for a Japanese woman in the early years of the twentieth century. In 1904, Arthur Hart-Synnot was sent to Japan to learn the language of his country's new ally. At least five generations of the Hart family had served in the British Army, and the ambitious young officer expected to keep up the tradition. Arriving in Tokyo on the eve of the Russo-Japanese War, Arthur met Masa Suzuki at the Officers' Club and was immediately smitten. Masa had grown up among shopkeepers and craftsmen in the working-class section of Tokyo. She had left school at age fourteen to work in a shop and was a dutiful Japanese daughter-when helping her mother serve meals, she would kneel at a respectful distance while her father and brothers ate. But her feelings for Arthur were so powerful that she was willing to risk her family's disapproval to be with him. Covering a forty-year period, Sword and Blossom follows Arthur and Masa's attempts to make a life together and chronicles the racial prejudice and social snobbery they encountered. Separated for years at a time, they stayed in touch through long, deeply affectionate letters that they wrote to each other in Japanese. The authors use this treasure trove of more than eight hundred letters to describe an extraordinary story of enduring love and great loss. RR@H's Novel Thoughts

Lizzie finds herself swept into the glamour of 1920's high society -- and into the heart of the family who had rejected her parents years before. She meets Henry, her grandfather and comes to see Pentire, Henry's gracious home, as her own. The calm world of Pentire is rocked when Lizzie's life is endangered by "accidents" -- her cousin Caroline also appears to be under threat. Are they both targets of some malicious enemy of Henry's? Or could the truth be much closer to home...?
