The Mark of the Assassin
1 journaler for this copy...
Short synopsis of this book:
When a commercial airliner is blown out of the sky off the East Coast, the CIA scrambles to find the perpetrators. A body is found near the crash site with 3 bullets to the face: the calling card of a shadowy international assassin. Only agent Michael Osbourne has seen the markings before----on a woman he once loved.
Here are some comments from professional reviewers:
"A terrific thriller...One of the best-drawn fictional assassins since The Day of the Jackel" -----San Francisco Examiner
" A strong driving pace----its two main characters cannot be denied"---Chicago Tribune
" A fast-moving, bang-bang thriller"----Los Angeles Daily News
"Silva's second book keeps you guessing to the final page"---San Francisco Examiner
Here are my thoughts about this book:
I have read a number of Silva's books (all the previous books featured Gabriel Alllon as the protagonist). This book features Michael Osbourne as the main protagonist. I have found all Silva books to be quite entertaining. I have a number of his books in reserve that I want to read. If you find this book and read it, I hope you'll find it as entertaining as I did. Enjoy!!
