Rescued, he becomes an eyewitness to a deadly struggle involving Toranaga, a feuding warlord intent on becoming SHOGUN - the supreme military dictator. Blackthorne is irresistibly drawn to the magnificent Lady Mariko, the married confidant to Toranaga, while at the same time vying to become the first-ever foreigner to be made a samurai warrior.
