The secrets of the Floating World unfold in the embrace of The Geisha with the Green Eyes. In 1850, Japan had remained veiled from the outside world for centuries, a secretive realm that held within its heart Edo. Within Edo lay Yoshiwara — "The Floating World," a center of unbridled pleasure. Deep within this enigmatic district stood the Hidden House, a sanctuary reserved for the elite, where geisha of extraordinary talent dwelled. Among them was Midori No Me, a woman of dual heritage — part Japanese, part foreigner. Born into captivity, she was trained from youth to devote herself to the wealthiest patrons in Japan, her innocence was auctioned at a tender age of thirteen. She found herself under the possession of a renowned kabuki actor before fate intervened, leading her into the hands of Edo's most formidable yakuza. This is the tale of the geisha who fled the intoxicating allure of the Floating World. This is the saga of The Geisha with the Green Eyes. For enthusiasts of Amy Tan's "The Valley of Amazement" and Arthur Golden's "Memoirs of a Geisha," "The Geisha with the Green Eyes" beckons with its sensuality, sentimentality, and captivating narrative, crafted by author India Millar. Embark on a journey through a mesmerizing historical romance unlike any other.

By 1850, Japan had been closed to the outside world for centuries. It was a secret world. A hidden world. And deep within that hidden world was the Yoshiwari in Edo (now Tokyo). Yoshiwara − "The Floating World". The centre of pleasure, for those men who could afford it. The place where hardly any demand was too strange, too bizarre, to find satisfaction. And − like a carved ivory ball where another world nestles within another world within another world − inside The Floating World was the Hidden House. The place that only a select few knew about. The place where only the very rich could satisfy their innermost desires. The place where nothing, nothing at all, was forbidden. The place where the geisha were ....special. Very special. And in the Hidden House lived Midori No Me − The Geisha with Green Eyes. Even by the standards of the Hidden House, she was unique. Half Japanese, half foreign Barbarian. Born to slavery in the Hidden House when her geisha mother ran away with her foreign Barbarian lover, she grew up knowing no other world. Trained from childhood to dedicate her life to serving the wealthy patrons of the Hidden House. Defiled at 13 when her virginity was sold to the highest bidder; a man old enough to be her grandfather. Possessed by the greatest actor in the Edo Kabuki theatre. Stolen from him by the most powerful Yakuza in Edo. Midori Ne Me. The geisha who knew only what she had been taught - how to give pleasure to men. The geisha who dared to use those skills to throw off the shackles she was born to wear. Midori No Me. The geisha who escaped from the Floating World. Midori No Me. The Geisha with Green Eyes.

Paper was once a Living thing. Do words written On it also live? For the geisha of the Hidden House, the pleasure house in the heart of Edo's notorious Floating World, writing was an escape. A way to forget about the troubles and monotony of their everyday lives and dream, even if just for a moment, of another world. Their fear and joy, pain and pleasure, happiness and sorrow bleed from the ends of the ink brush and onto the pages herein. The haikus in this collection are from the Secrets from the Hidden House novels by India Millar, which chronicle the lives of the exquisite geisha who lived in the Hidden House. INDIA MILLAR started her career in heavy industry at British Gas and ended it in the rarefied atmosphere of the British Library.

Freelance writer and long‑time Ben & Jerry’s addict Jaine Austen uncovers murderers on the mean streets of Beverly Hills, with a little help from her snarky cat, Prozac, in this witty mystery series from acclaimed TV comedy writer and novelist Laura Levine—a lighthearted treat for cat cozy fans and readers of Joanne Fluke, Miranda James, and Laura Childs. What could be more idyllic than starting a new gig with an exclusive train ride from Los Angeles to Santa Barbara? Turns out, a whole lot. Jaine must figure out how to tolerate her client—Chip Miller, aka Iron Man, a wealthy gym chain owner—who Jaine soon discovers is a tyrant and a bully with an ego as pumped as his pecs. Practically everyone on board seems to have it in for Chip—his dysfunctional family members, his beleaguered staff, even his supposed best buddy from the gym. So it’s no shocker when he’s found dead in his cabin. Unfortunately for Jaine, she’s the one who finds Chip’s body, leaving her DNA on the murder weapon, and making her a prime suspect in the police investigation. Forced to save her own caboose, can Jaine chug on through an unexpected love connection and ID the killer—or has she finally reached the end of the line?
