Last Call (The Destroyer)

The new director of the CIA decides it’s out with the old and begins a housecleaning rampage, slashing programs and spending as he deems fit. To his chagrin, he discovers that a deadman’s switch has been tripped, unleashing a long-dormant network of government-sanctioned assassins on the capitals of Europe. It’s a program that will culminate in the very public execution of the Soviet premier, unless the man from CURE can protect him, and keep the fragile, cold peace intact.


ABOUT THE SERIES: Sentenced to death for a crime he didn’t commit, ex-cop Remo Williams is rescued from the electric chair and recruited by a secret government organization as an assassin, targeting criminals who are beyond the law. Remo’s trainer is a curmudgeonly old Korean named Chiun, whose mastery of the terrifyingly powerful martial art of Sinanju makes him the deadliest man alive.

The winning combination of action, humor, and mysticism has made the Destroyer one of the best-selling series of all time. With more than 150 books and over 50 million copies sold worldwide, the Destroyer has been praised by the LA Times as “flights of hilarious satire,” and gave birth to the mythology of the brash young Westerner taught by an ancient, inscrutable master.
