The Dragon King's Palace by Rowland
I read this while traveling in Japan in December, 2007. It's a mystery novel set in late 17th century Japan. It's a decent mystery novel, but it probably helps if you are a foreigner with a certain fondness for Japan (like myself). I'd be interested to know what people from Japan think about this story. I don't want to say too much about the plot. The wife of the shogun gets kidnapped together with the wife of the shogun's chief investigator, who now has every reason to investigate. Of course, this is not an easy task as everyone is conspiring against everyone and his/her brother ;)
