Assassin's Silence: David Slaton Series, Book 2
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read, Open EPUB eBook)
USA Today bestselling author Ward Larsen's celebrated protagonist, assassin David Slaton, returns for another breathless adventure in Assassin's Silence
Every so often, a great assassin novel comes along: Brad Meltzer's The Fifth Assassin, David Baldacci's The Hit, Daniel Silva's The Kill Artist. Now Ward Larsen brings us Assassin's Silence, featuring David Slaton, hero of Larsen's Assassin's Game and the award-winning The Perfect Assassin.
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.
The CIA assesses the two spectacles: a practiced killer leaving a trail of bodies across Europe, and a large airplane disappearing without a trace. The two affairs are increasingly seen to be intertwined. Langley realizes the killer is a man long thought to be dead, and the lost airliner has been highly modified into 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.

March 20, 2017
In Larsen’s exciting third David Slaton novel (after 2014’s Assassin’s Game), the former Mossad assassin Slaton is quietly biding his time as a stonemason in Mdina, an ancient city on the island of Malta. He’s been underground since a botched operation; even his wife, the mother of his infant son, believes he’s dead. But one of his enemies—he’s not sure which, as he has so many—eventually locates him. An assault team corners him in a restaurant, but Slaton, despite being injured, manages to kill one attacker and escape the others. The remaining hunters chase him across Europe and the Middle East. Meanwhile, at a remote airport in Brazil, members of a mysterious group overhaul a dilapidated plane and turn it into a diabolical tool of destruction. Slaton continues to pick off the members of the assault team pursuing him—and the CIA soon connects their deaths with what the agency knows about the refitted plane. Larsen keeps the suspense high as both Slaton and the CIA race to save the world from a horrific plot. Agent: Susan Gleason, Susan Gleason Literary.

Starred review from May 1, 2016
Larsen has two active series currently running, and both are terrific. This latest installment featuring former assassin David Slaton is his best yet. Slaton has gone off the grid, isolating himself from everyone he cares about to the point that several governments and even his wife believe he is dead. One day an assault team shows up while he is doing stonework, and he barely escapes. How was he found? Who wants him dead? Is his family safe? He must reestablish his skills and utilize a long-buried network of allies and enemies if he's to stay alive and find answers. Larsen's other series character, Jammer Davis, an investigator for the National Transportation Safety Board, shows up when a plane mysteriously disappears. The mix of the two characters is a Larsen fan's dream and makes for a wonderful introduction to a too-little-known author. Slaton is the perfect assassin, and this is the perfect action-adventure thriller.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2016, American Library Association.)
