Synopsis

USA Today bestselling author Ward Larsen's globe-trotting, hard-hitting assassin, David Slaton, returns for another breathless adventure in Assassin's Strike!

In a Syrian palace, the presidents of Russia and Iran undertake a clandestine meeting. No staff or advisors are permitted in the room. No records are kept. By necessity, however, there are two witnesses: the interpreters. The Russian, Ludmilla Kravchuk, returns to her hotel room burdened by what she has heard. When her Iranian counterpart is murdered before her eyes, Kravchuk fears she is next and goes into hiding in Syria.

The CIA gets word of the defection. Desperate to uncover the purpose of the meeting, they task their newest off-the-books operator—legendary assassin David Slaton—to undertake a daring rescue. Deep inside Syria’s war-torn borders, what Slaton finds is a plot that will tear the Middle East apart. And one that only he can stop.

“Highly reminiscent of Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne series.” —David Hagberg, New York Times bestselling author

Goodreads review by Sarah on May 31, 2020

Assassin Strike was a fast pace in your face thriller! David Slaton is back and is ready to start “work” with his latest employer. I really enjoyed the study of what happens when the shadow world has been your life for an extended period of time, and then you stop? We get to delve into that in this......more

4.5 Stars I really wish Goodreads allowed 1/2 stars. There are so many times when 4 stars just isn't enough, but I try to be so careful with my 5 star ratings (that's completely for my own purposes) that it just makes things difficult. Anyway, I have been a fan of the David Slaton series for a while......more
