Ninja Kamui

Joe Logan is a quiet man in rural America until the past he buried finds him with surgical cruelty. He is not really Joe, he is Higan, a former ninja who escaped his clan, broke its rules, and tried to live as if the old life could not reach him. It does. Assassins sent by the reformed clan ambush him, and they do not come to warn or negotiate. They come to erase the betrayal by killing the people he chose over the code, his wife Mari and their son Ren, and they do it under the direct will of Yamaji, the leader now steering the clan’s violence. What survives in Joe is not peace, it is skill, rage, and memory, and Higan turns back into what he tried to stop being. He begins hunting the organization that made him, moving through a conflict that is not only blades in the dark but also modern weaponry and corporate interests. An FBI investigation pulls agents into the wake of the murders, and the pursuit starts to overlap with the deeper machinery behind the killings, including a partnership that links the ninja world to advanced tech built by the company AUZA. Higan’s revenge becomes a war against a system that mixes tradition with engineered power, and every step forward forces him to decide what kind of justice is possible when the enemy is not just a single killer but the entire structure that trained him, owned him, and then decided his family was an acceptable price.
