Exiled in Java

di Rosa Letha (Autore)

Starise Books, 2026

Two worlds. Two exiles. One impossible love. She is the daughter of an English duke, raised in castle luxury and destined for a strategic marriage that will unite two of Britain's greatest families. Her future is written in stone—until a journey to Japan in 1899 changes everything. He is the last of his kind. A samurai's son in a Japan that has no use for samurai, wandering Tokyo's streets with only his father's sword skills and his fading honor. When he saves a beautiful foreign lady from danger, he never expects to find someone who sees beyond his poverty. Their love defies every rule of empire and society. But when faced with a future apart, they make an unthinkable choice: they will disappear. With help from an unlikely ally—a Javanese princess fighting her own battles for freedom—they flee to the Dutch East Indies, shedding their names and identities like autumn leaves. In a remote tropical village, an English noblewoman becomes someone else entirely. A samurai learns to hide his sword and his past. But building a new life means sacrificing everything they were. And in a world of colonial powers and rigid hierarchies, some secrets are dangerous to keep. From the ballrooms of Victorian England to the streets of Meiji Tokyo to the rice paddies of colonial Java, this is a sweeping tale of forbidden love, impossible choices, and the price of freedom.
