Kazunomiya: Prisoner of Heaven, Japan 1858
Kazunomiya lives an extremely sheltered life. However, when a Japanese general signs a treaty with the white-faced men from America, uncertainty and turmoil erupt in the kingdom.
"This is probably my favorite out of the Royal Diaries series. I love Japanese culture and history and this book gives a beautifully written story that gives a bit of insight into both. I especially loved the characterization of Kazunomiya and how it depicts the struggles she negates as she grows up in the Japanese Imperial Court."
