I have enjoyed all the books in this series, but the last two have really been a lot of fun to read. The characters are engaging, the action is interesting and well thought out.

Looking forward to the next installment.... ( )

FreeLance assassin John Rain is looking over his shoulder. In his line of work he has made multiple very dangerous enemies. Now, because of a chance encounter, he has discovered that he has a son whom he must protect against these people. He flies to Tokyo with partner and love Delila and sharp-shooter, Doc to make sure the bad guys don’t het to his son. ( )

I totally love hanging out with John Rain and his entourage!!! Since the mid nineties, my favorite fictional character has been Ridley Pearson's "Lou Boldt". I have so many other characters that I like, but none ever surpassed Lou Boldt. Now though, Boldt shares his pedestal with John Rain. Thank you so much, Mr. Eisler!! ( )
