Nicholai Hel is the most deadly assassin in the world. Half German, half Russian, bought up by a Japanese general; mystic, philosopher, master of the senses, a man of Shibumi. When Hannah Stern escapes as the only survivor from a fake 'Black September' raid staged by the CIA she runs to Hel for help since her uncle saved Hel's life many years ago. Diamond is the man who has to find them, with the help of Fat Boy, controlled, like everyone else - the politicians, the military, and the CIA - by the sinister organization known as the Mother Company. Has an Interquel by Don Winslow, titled Satori, chronicling the events between Hel's imprisonment and his rise as a professional assassin.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })One of Trevanian's many novels, and a spiritual successor to The Eiger Sanction.

| Shibumi / int_4eaa9b84 | comment |
Author Tract: Just like The Eiger Sanction before, Trevanian's fondness for criticizing society reappears here: from sociology to various drivers compensating for something to Americanism. It is done with enough humor that it does not come off as a rant. | |

| Shibumi / int_7d7c8e54 | comment |
Being Watched: Protagonist Nicholai Hel is capable of sensing when someone is watching him. It is not really telepathy and he isn't wholly sure how he gained that ability, but he speculates it is a result of his senses being sharpened to cope with the lack of external stimulus after spending several years in solitary confinement. Considering he has several other Charles Atlas Superpowers, it's probably not as strange for him. | |
