The Mark of the Assassin
by Daniel Silva
#1 of 2 in the Michael Osbourne series

Set in London, Cairo, Amsterdam, and Washington, the story line follows CIA case agent Michael Osbourne as he attempts to locate the terrorists who shot down an airliner off the coast of Long Island. Osbourne has two main antagonists: Delaroche, a KGB-trained expert assassin ordered to kill the handful of people who know the truth, including Osbourne, and the corrupt political culture of Washington, which ominously stymies him at every turn.

There's a love story at the core of this book, as well as a brave attempt by Osbourne to reconcile a mystery in his past with a present he has not fully accepted.

Packaging: Retail cardboard box with 10 CDs, each in their own paper envelope.

Condition: I purchased this book new, so it WOULD be in great shape, but I put a big sticker on the back cover, which I then tried to remove, so now the back cover is a war zone. Everything else is tip-top. The discs all play fine and the box (other than the schmutz-pocalypse) is clean and unsquashed.
