A young girl bucks convention in fourteenth century Japan. When a crooked minister frames her father and steals her home, is Tokoyo prepared to sacrifice all to save him?

Tokoyo's samurai father trains her in martial arts. When he's away, she escapes to the sea to dive with the Ama-a society of females who search the deep waters for food and treasure. With them, Tokoyo finds the friendship and adventure she craves.

When her father is banished to a remote island, she undertakes a desperate journey, filled with thieves and monsters. She'll have to rely on all she's learned from both her father and the Ama. Will her skills and tenacity save her or end in death?

Tokoyo the Samurai's Daughter is the thrilling first installment of the Adventurous Girls series of middle-grade books based on world folk tales. If your young reader loves action, adventure, and far away places, don't miss this "thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended" book. (Historical Novels Review)
