 | The Last Assassin(2006)(Extremis) (The fifth book in the John Rain series) A novel by Barry Eisler |
Barry Awards Best Novel (nominee)
Previously published as The Last Assassin
Even for an average citizen, a love triangle is dangerous business. For assassin John Rain - "one of the most compelling lead characters in the genre" (USA Today) - it's going to be downright deadly.
When Rain learns that his former lover, Midori, has been raising their child in New York, Rain senses a chance for reconciliation, perhaps even for redemption.
But Midori and the child are being watched by Rain's enemies, and Rain's sudden appearance puts them in terrible danger. To save them, Rain is forced to use the same deadly talents he had been hoping to leave behind. With the help of Tatsu, his one-time nemesis in the Japanese FBI; and Dox, the former Marine sniper whose good ol' boy persona masks a killer as deadly as Rain himself, Rain races against time to bring his enemies into the open and eliminate them forever.
Extremis was previously published as The Last Assassin, the fifth in the bestselling John Rain assassin series.
Genre: Thriller
