Three Assassins by Kotaro Isaka
Three killers. One plan. No one gets out clean. When Suzuki’s wife is murdered, he infiltrates the criminal underworld to find those responsible - only to discover a trio of professional assassins, each with a signature method and a deadly philosophy. THE WHALE convinces his victims to take their own lives using just his words. THE CICADA is a talkative and deadly knife expert. THE PUSHER dispatches his targets in deadly traffic 'accidents'. Fast, funny and full of twists, Three Assassins spins revenge into a gripping and unputdownable ride. ‘Showcases Kotaro Isaka's Tarantinoesque blend of offbeat wit and stylised violence’ The Times ‘Highly entertaining... grips with plenty of twists’ Sunday Express
