Product Description:
'Riveting...Crackling...It really moves.'
WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD
They were orphans, Chris and Saul--raised in a Philadelphia school for boys, bonded by friendship, and devoted to a mysterious man called Eliot. He visited them and brought them candy. He treated them like sons. He trained them to be assassins. Now he is trying desperately to have them killed.
Spanning the globe, here is an astonishing novel of fierce loyalty and violent betrayal, of murders planned and coolly executed, of revenge bitterly, urgently desired.

Several years after reading this book, I remember many passages and the story as it is active, sublime in the art of action thriller. What a class! David Morrell is a great writer of thrillers adding a clear thoroughness to psychological characters.
What a giant!

I read this book in the mid 80's, then again in the mid 90's, so I guess it's time to read again. I have read a lot of Mr. Morrell's books, and think this is his best. It is fast paced, and has vivid imagery. He is a master at hooking you.
Rated by buyers -
Suspenseful, fast paced and well written. You are drawn in from the beginning and actually like these two "brothers" even though they are trained assassins. The history of how Chris and Sean became brothers was at sometimes sad but showed how their unbreakable bond started early in life. A must read!

I wonder whether the miniseries will be converted to DVD?
I will be the very first one to buy the DVD.
Rated by buyers -
This Novel should stand proudly subsequent to any all time greats. It currently stands proudly on my bookshelf in between The Godfather and Kane&Abel. If you haven't read this yet I strongly recommend it. If you're into high action oriented novels with twists and turns and novels that chronicles the protagonist's life as a child and how he became the way he is (Assassins) then this is a must.
Trust me. You won't regret it.
