Assassin's silence

"When it comes to disappearing, David Slaton has few equals. Police in three countries have written off trying to find him. His old employer, Mossad, keeps no forwarding address. Even his wife and son are convinced he is dead. So when an assault team strikes, Slaton is taken by surprise. He kills one man and manages to escape. Half a world away, in the baleful heat of the Amazon, an obscure air cargo company purchases a derelict airliner. Teams of mechanics work feverishly to make the craft airworthy. On the first flight, the jet plunges toward the ocean. From a distance, the CIA assesses two spectacles: a practiced killer leaving a trail of bodies across Europe and a large airplane disappearing without a trace. As Langley digs deeper, the two affairs are increasingly seen to be intertwined. They realize the killer is a man long thought to be dead. More alarming, the lost airliner has been highly modified, and in the wrong hands. It could become a tool of unimaginable terror. When their worst fears are realized, Langley must trust the one man who can save them: David Slaton, the perfect assassin." -- from publisher.
