In This Living Body

A LIVING MUMMY? Has he been brought to Japan to be trained as an assassin; or is his mission even darker than that? Does the secretive Senkyo sect control powerful Yamazaki Industries which pays him well, but requires little? And does the beautiful Hanako suddenly appear to help or to undermine his training? Deep beneath the surface layers of the Japanese martial arts lies a mystical core that is revealed to even few Japanese. Why then would it recruit a young American, skilled in karate and Zen but only beginning to master the language? He must practice stringently and devote all his energies to his sensei's quest for a forbidden art. In this quest he will discover and master the veiled secrets of astonishing powers. From prize-winning author M. J. Sullivan, In This Living Body is a surreal journey into a secret world that challenges our ideas about Spirit, Time and Love.
