En 1861, Japón se ve forzado a abrir sus puertas a Occidente, generando un choque cultural. En el puerto de Edo, barcos extranjeros buscan oportunidades, incluyendo un grupo de misioneros americanos. Para Emily Gibson y Matthew Stark, este viaje representa una nueva vida y secretos ocultos, respectivamente. Sus destinos se cruzan con Genji, un joven samurái heredero del clan Akaoka. Su amistad con los extranjeros desata conflictos con otros clanes, llevando a Genji a defender su posición con la ayuda de sus amigos y su amante, la geisha Heiko, en medio de intrigas y traiciones.
