| In THE LOST ASSASSIN, by Brent Ferguson, a young Esther Harel loses her father in the 1972 Olympic Massacre and vows to bring to justice every single terrorist associated with the slaughter. Now working as a Mossad agent, her mission is nearly complete. Only Jamal Al-Gashey remains and, after narrowly missing him in Europe, Esther tracks him to Los Angeles, where she ultimately finds herself caught in the middle of an international terrorist plot to assassinate two world leaders. Working with Geoff Castle, an LA police officer who has extensive knowledge of the Russian Mafiya in America, Esther uncovers a complicated web connecting the Munich terrorist to the modern-day Russian Mafiya...and also begins to realize all that she has sacrificed in her quest for vengeance—a family of her own, someone who could bring to her the same feeling of being loved and being safe that her father gave to her. His death created a hole in her life and, rather than filling it, she’d chosen to dig deeper. For Geoff, working with Esther provides a chance for vengeance of his own, against the mobsters responsible for the death of his fiancé, and a chance to find a new beginning.... This fast-paced thriller has it all—gun battles and car chases; Arab terrorists and the Russian Mafiya; desire and romance; loyalty and betrayal; justice and revenge. Amongst all this, Esther and Geoff race to stop the assassinations of the century.... |
