The
sixth novel in international bestselling author Tom Wood’s action-packed
thriller series featuring the enigmatic assassin Victor, following The Darkest Day, No Tomorrow, and The Game.
IT’S NOT HOW LONG YOU’LL LIVE....
Now that professional assassin Victor is indentured to British Intelligence, he is tasked with eliminating the worst of the worst. One such man is Milan Rados, a former Serbian paramilitary commander wanted for war crimes and now head of an organized criminal network in Belgrade. He has escaped justice once already, so it’s Victor's job to take the justice to him.
IT’S HOW SOON THEY’LL DIE.
Victor might be the best in the business, but with powerful friends and an entire crew to protect him, Rados is a hard man to corner and even harder to kill. To get close to his target, Victor will need more than his deadly skills. An unlikely ally can provide him with the edge he seeks, but there’s a price on Victor’s head—and a killer who won’t quit knows just how to find him....

Wonderful title.
ReplyDeleteI am sure professional assasins do exist, but what a lonely life...
A disgusting book that paints Serbs as criminals and killers. Writers like him spread hatred around the world by spreading prejudices and fabrications that suit their own government. Nasty, very nasty.
ReplyDeleteI do like Bourne style stories.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that's a bad guy I could pull for.
Interesting to have an assassin as the protagonist, Mason. It's hard to do that successfully, so that you feel something for the killer. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCool thriller.
ReplyDeleteCaptivating thriller. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI do love thrillers, and this one sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI do find myself pulling for bad guys. Serge, in Tim Dorsey's books, is one bad guy you can't help but love (I may be crazy for it!). I do like reading books by foreign authors--love seeing views from other parts of the world.
