missingvolumeThis novella is set in an alternate Asian country. A royal woman from the North is married to the Emperor in the South. After the birth of a son, she is sent away from court to keep her from plotting against the Emperor. Her life story is told over a series of nights to a young traveling monk by the Empress’ only handmaiden. Rabbit is an unlikely royal handmaiden, but she is loyal to her Lady as she tells the story of what happened to her in the court and after she was sent away. A great story and I enjoyed how the story unfolded brought about by simple objects found in the house.
