Asuka Kunimi believed she had a normal, happy childhood until her father — a celebrated shogi prodigy — abandoned her and her ailing mother, plunging Asuka into a life of isolation and hardship. Consumed by bitterness, she channels her rage into a surprising aptitude for the ancient game of shogi, and enters its cutthroat, male-dominated world with one goal: to seek revenge. Under the guidance of a former pro who also bears a grudge, she plots to become the first female professional player and confront the father who built his success on her and her mother’s ruin. Yet as Asuka fights for dominance on the board, she discovers that ambition, identity and the cost of vengeance are far more tangled than she imagined—and that reclaiming her life may mean more than simply defeating him.
