About this listen

An Amazon Charts, Washington Post, and Wall Street Journal bestseller.

A fast-paced, page-turning novel of betrayal, vengeance, and depraved secrets in high places from the New York Times bestselling author of the John Rain and Livia Lone series.

When a joint FBI-Seattle Police investigation of an international child pornography ring gets too close to certain powerful people, sex-crimes detective Livia Lone becomes the target of a hit that barely goes awry - a hit that had been offered to John Rain, a retired specialist in "natural causes."

Suspecting the FBI itself was behind the attack, Livia reaches out to former Marine sniper Dox. Together, they assemble an ad hoc group to identify and neutralize the threat. There’s Rain. Rain’s estranged lover, Mossad agent and honeytrap specialist Delilah. And black ops soldiers Ben Treven and Daniel Larison, along with their former commander, SpecOps legend Colonel Scot "Hort" Horton.

Moving from Japan to Seattle to DC to Paris, the group fights a series of interlocking conspiracies, each edging closer and closer to the highest levels of the US government.

With uncertain loyalties, conflicting agendas, and smoldering romantic entanglements, these operators will have a hard time forming a team. But in a match as uneven as this one, a collective of killers might be even better.

Critic reviews

“In this crackling-good thriller from bestseller Eisler, Seattle PD sex crimes detective Livia Lone, assassin John Rain, and former Marine sniper Dox form a testy alliance to combat a vile conspiracy involving corrupt and toxic government agencies…The feisty interplay among these killer elites is as irresistible as if one combined the Justice League with the Avengers, swapping out the superhero uniforms for cutting-edge weaponry and scintillating spycraft. By the satisfying conclusion, the world has been scrubbed a bit cleaner of perfidy. This is delightfully brutal fun.” (Publishers Weekly)

Didn’t take me long

Mr. Eisler’s stories are so good its kind of disappointing as I get thru them too fast. The chemistry between the characters remains the best part. Dox still deserves a standalone and hopefully someday we will get to see whos better at Judo (Rain or Livia)!!

Dear Mr. Barry Eislar.....

I’m fairly sure I’ve read every book you’ve written. I enjoyed every book of yours that I’ve read. This book was pre-ordered and sadly, finished in 1 day. I have to thank you for you attempt to educate you readers and hopefully other authors on the proper use of ‘few’ and ‘less’. I grind my teeth in unbelief when I read a book where the author and editor allow this ‘pet-peeveish’ error.
I also enjoyed the reference to the Largent cartoon. Thirty-five years ago I taught ESL in Taiwan and we, as English teachers made t-shirts with that theme. “What ELS teachers say, What our students hear.”

Anxiously awaiting your next book.

Great Author/Reader

I love Eisler’s books. They are fun and exciting. I especially like that the author reads them. I can’t imagine anyone else doing justice to the books. He did a bang up
Job with this one.

Mr. Eisler another great John Rain story!

Always enjoy listening to the stories you write. Got all of your audiobooks for John Rain. Started out by reading Clean Kill in Tokyo. Personally met you five years ago at a Target focus training class in Las Vegas. Your books about the character John Rain bring up one interesting bit of information I never heard before. The reason you get the shakes before and after a confrontation is not because you're afraid it's because of an adrenaline dump and the after effects. Never knew! Never thought about or understood the physiology. Just knew it felt really nasty.
