An Honorable Assassin

Assassin Nick Mason can never be free from responsibilities or his past; his latest job proves it. To keep his young daughter and ex-wife from meeting a gruesome death, he’s forced to go to Jakarta to kill a criminal known as the Crocodile. What should be a simple task goes awry, and now he’s forced to work with people he can’t trust in an unfamiliar city. Mason is not the only one who wants to see the Crocodile dead. Martin Sauvage works for Interpol and blames the Crocodile for murdering his wife and daughter in a Paris bombing. No matter the cost, Sauvage’s vendetta will succeed, even if an American assassin gets in the way. While Sauvage plots, Mason learns that doing the right thing will worsen the situation and overall mission. Can Mason be successful and honorable at the same time? It’s great to see Hamilton and Nick Mason back in action, and the frenetic pace and the double-crosses never stop. Having a character with such a notorious backstory and someone a reader roots for is challenging, but Hamilton is a great writer and nails it. When will Nick Mason be on TV or film? This needs to happen!
