ASSASSIN
About this ebook
The Donahues again lead readers along the Italian Riviera into a labyrinth of mystery and suspense with their latest novel. While you stroll through the world of palatial villas, penthouses, luxurious yachts, and exotic cars, Marin and John are running from a ruthless killer.
Florence, Italy. A billionaire’s face turns ashen as he reads the card handed to him by a stranger. It’s the announcement of his own death sentence—to be carried out immediately.
The wealthy, who bend the rules to their advantage, need to look over their shoulders—their corruption has not gone unnoticed. For their crimes, they are being tried in absentia and sentenced to execution—and not through their own manipulated courts. The Equal Justice League is coming for them.
Criminologist Marin Ryan and computer guru John Hunter are enjoying the sun, serenity, and a fast Ferrari on the Mediterranean Coast. A CIA friend asks John to look over an odd website that appears for one day and disappears the next. Each new upload carries a message of a new public execution of an international billionaire. The documents on the website detail the crimes of the corrupt individual. This apparent benign involvement in the case puts the couple at serious risk.
Reader Review: “If you love international intrigue, this is the book for you.”
Reader Review: “. . .surprise ending you must read.”
