Orphaned at the tender age of six, Kane grew up in a remote Buddhist monastery high in the Japanese Alps.
From the beginning, he understood that he was different from the other boys because of his unusually large frame and stature, which made him a target of their torment.
The monastery was strict and the high priest monks were experts in the martial art of ninjitsu, with rigorous daily training for the boys, eventually developing Kane into a prodigy.
During a sparring match, organized by one of his rivals Kane accidentally slays his opponent and flees the monastery once and for all, but with a mob of relentless ninjas hot on his trail.
As the hunt begins, Kane's life will change forever as he starts to gradually reshape into his true identity and power, transforming into the demonic Shadow Bear.

'There Once Was a Girl' is an undeniably compelling story. Townsend so skillfully portrays Josie’s inner life that her often-questionable choices are entirely believable.
Readers will be eager to learn how she makes it to the other side of them."
‘Undeniably Compelling Story’
BlueInk Reviews
The unconventional and slightly eccentric nature of 'Cant See Around Corners' appealed to my penchant for dark tales and complex characters. Josie's skill in crafting phenomenal scenes left me in awe.
I was impressed by the adept handling of pacing, as the story effortlessly maintained my undivided attention from beginning to end.
'Can't See Around Corners' was an intense, tragic, family saga with a pinch of supernatural elements thrown into it. The book had this hypnotic effect and the writing was just beautiful.
The story was very out of the box and quite funky. The plot was fast-paced and it had enough drama to keep us guessing.
A lot of allegories were used to convey that money doesn't make a person good and character is what really matters at the end of the day. Money also makes people too greedy and do unthinkable things."
