This is the story of Eli Dagan a former field agent for the Mossad who turned out to be the best contract killer around. He is meticulous and very alert although he is starting to change his habits and make decisions he would not have done years ago. Instead of taking contracts on the dark web for a mission he compromises his anonymity by meeting in person. Eli is hired by Odessa mafia boss Anton Gortov for two missions....
This is a riveting thriller that takes us bit by bit through a professional killer’s routine at a relentlessly fast pace. It is jam packed with crosses and double crosses. It is definitely an edge of your seat story that takes us from Israel to Russia and to Brooklyn. The story is a mix of relentless action; psychological suspense all wrapped up in an emotional drama ...what a roller-coaster ride. Mr. Rubinstein is no doubt a master at misdirection.
His prose captures the brutally life of a paid killer in a twisty plot that never slows down. Eli is sharply drawn, a sleek killer and a man tormented by his past. This is one thriller so intense and so captivating that I hated to put it aside.
Well-done and well-said
