A group of teenage martial artists defend a Southern Missouri high school from an invading ninja army.
Jamie and Yoshi are late twentieth century members of the Funakoshi ninja clan who were trained by Yoshi’s uncle, Tanemura Funakoshi. When the Waruiyatsu, a sinister clan with an ancient grudge, attack Jamie’s high school and hold his classmates hostage in an effort to bring Tanemura and his two students into the open, Jamie and his clan sister are forced to attempt a rescue.
Going along are a close group of friends, each with his own interest in the fighting arts. From Dave, whose muscle-bound frame and love of a good scuffle are overshadowed by his cheerful personality and kind heart, to Buster, whose Bible is his greatest weapon, each of their friends has a loyalty to them and each other that is stronger than the Waruiyatsu can ever fathom.
This is a story of courage, friendship, and faith ....
Excerpt
The leader of Adventure ducked an attack and shoved the tip of his blade into the Warui ninja’s foot. His enemy grunted in pain as Jamie struck his sword arm with the flat of his blade, sending the other chunin’s sword flying. The teen spin-kicked his opponent across the face, bringing him to his knees. Jamie grabbed the ninja by the vest and brought the point of his ninja-to his throat.
“Do it, gai-jin,” demanded the other as he reached up and weakly removed his own mask, forcing Jamie to look him in the face. “Kill your enemy. Kill him, as our kind have always done.”
Jamie’s eyes narrowed. “I’m NOT your kind!”
The other ninja smiled bitterly, revealing bloody teeth. “The Funakoshi have blood on their hands as well. How many lives have you already taken this night?”
