David Slaton returns for the newest novel by thriller veteran Ward Larsen, with the lightning-fast pace and interesting characters we’ve come to know and love in Assassin's Edge.
In this newest Slaton adventure, three seemingly unrelated events trigger former Mossad agent David Slaton back into action, in an attempt to keep the planet from dropping into another World War. First, just off the coast of Russia, a US spy plane crashes, a Mossad agent is captured in the Middle East, and a US Naval vessel sinks between Europe and Asia. When questions are asked, the US and Israel call on Slaton to answer their questions.
In a book that seems all too realistic, Larsen toes the line between thriller and science fiction, introducing interesting weaponry and gizmos & gadgets that give Assassin’s Edge a unique, fun, and techno-thriller vibe. It is replete with the spy tradecraft that make it feel like a Silva novel, chopped up with Flynn-esque action, and in-depth knowledge around weapons and military tactics that rival Clancy. I am continually blown away by Larsen’s ability to pack so much action into one story. It’s a great military thriller novel that should be at the top of your 2022 reading list.
