Excerpt: It would be safest, Owajima thought, to operate on the worst-case assumption that DarLowrie had learned most, if not all, of an agent\'s skills. He would need them, if he had any intention of assassinating Owajima on his home territory and then escaping.

Should he simply eliminate DarLowrie, or would it be better to capture and question him? The second, Owajima decided almost immediately. That would be more difficult, but it might be a good idea to discover the agent reckless enough to teach such skills to anyone able to pay -- and discourage ....

He was going to do it himself. He could and would ask for help from his former colleagues, the Shogun\'s secret police -- but attempted murder of an Imperial officer was an Imperial crime; they didn\'t have jurisdiction.
