Max Austin, the (new) KGB assassin, is called back to his home in Minsk by his sister. His mother, from whom he is estranged, has but a couple weeks to live from cancer. Returning home, he senses something wrong just in time to avoid being blown up by a truck bomb that kills his brother-in-law, mother, and father, a high-ranking KGB spy.

I guess I have nothing against revenge books, and it's true Max is an assassin, but it's always unsettling to have the protagonist indulge in the kind of violence, torture, and mayhem he despises but then rationalizes in his own actions.

An entertaining read, good for plane, train or (horrors) bus trips. The price was right on Kindle Unlimited.… (plus d'informations)
