The mysterious assassin known only as Victor is locked in an uneasy alliance with the CIA. And he has a list: Three names, three victims. Worst of all, Victor is given just two days to take down his targets, forcing him to compromise his usual extreme care. With each name Victor crosses off his list, the game grows far more complex - and far more lethal. A conspiracy begins to unwind and suddenly this perfect assassin becomes the perfect target.

Forget James Bond. Forget Jason Bourne. Forget Jack Bauer. Meet Victor. He's an assassin - a man with no past and no surname. But when a Paris job goes spectacularly wrong, Victor finds himself running for his life across four continents, accompanied by a woman too beautiful to trust, pursued by enemies too powerful to escape.

A hitman must be anonymous, amoral... and alone. Victor is the face in the crowd you don't see, a perfect assassin with nothing to live for. But when an old friend turns to him for help, he finds he can't refuse. For once his objective isn't to kill but to protect. Hunted through the streets of London by ruthless enemies, Victor needs to be more than just a bodyguard...but his every move leads danger closer to the very person he's vowed to defend. Published in the US as No Tomorrow.

Victor is the perfect killer. He has no past. He will stop at nothing. And he can find you anywhere. In sweltering Algiers, ultra-efficient hitman Victor executes a fellow assassin. But when the CIA comes calling, Victor must pose as his victim to identify the dead man's next mark--a mission that takes him across Europe to the bloody streets of Rome. Working alongside a group of vicious mercenaries, Victor faces an impossible choice: to do what's right, or to sacrifice the only thing he cares about: his life.

He is darkness. She wants him dead. In a city starved of light, she might just succeed. She moves like a shadow; she kills silently: Raven. This elegant assassin has been on the run for years. This time, though, she has picked the wrong target. The hitman known only as "Victor" is as paranoid as he is merciless and is no stranger to being hunted. He tracks his would-be killer across the globe, aiming not only to neutralise the threat but to discover who wants him dead.

Vertrauen ist ein Fehler, der sonst nur anderen passiert... jetzt muss er dafür büßen. Als Victor für einen Mord verhaftet wird, den er ausnahmsweise nicht begangen hat, muss er fliehen, damit seine wahren Absichten verborgen bleiben. Doch irgendjemand will Victor unbedingt hinter Gittern sehen. So landet er in einem LowSecurity Gefängnis, umgeben von Polizisten, die keine Ahnung haben, welches Monster sie eingefangen haben! Und auch den anderen Insassen ist nicht klar: Sie befinden sich in einem Käfig mit dem kaltblütigsten Auftragsmörder der Staaten.

Ein Mann kommt in eine Stadt. Unscheinbar. Schweigsam. Nach einem Job taucht der Auftragsmörder Victor in einem kleinen Motel in Kanada jenseits der Grenze unter. Ein paar Tage, dann wird er wie ein Geist verschwinden – doch eine Begegnung ändert alles. Victor lernt eine Mutter und ihren Sohn kennen, die ihn an seine schmerzvolle Kindheit erinnern … und als die beiden plötzlich wie vom Erdboden verschluckt sind, scheint nur ihn das zu interessieren.

MERCY HAS A COST. TIME FOR VICTOR TO PAY. Assassin-for-hire Victor is in Bucharest, Romania, to kill two targets meeting to exchange stolen intelligence his client wants back. It should be a simple task—until he realizes the second of his targets is a former ally. Even for a man of Victor's...

They want an eye for an eye. He'll fight until the last drop is spilled. The incredible latest novel in the most visceral, action-packed series around sees the assassin Victor fighting enemies on all sides, with no allies in sight. To make amends for past mistakes, the enigmatic assassin known...

Ma ora una sorella ha un'arma che potrebbe finalmente vincere la guerra.

Sie sind Schwestern, und sie bekämpfen einander mit allen Mitteln. Denn beide wollen sich das Imperium ihres verstorbenen Vaters sichern, eines Drogenbosses in Guatemala City. Der blutige Streit dauert bereits Jahre, und die amerikanische Drug Enforcement Administration versucht von heimischem Territorium aus vergebens, den Drogenkrieg zu beenden. Die Fehde fordert immer neue Todesopfer, zudem hat sich nun eine der Schwestern eine ganz besondere Waffe in diesem Kampf gesichert: Victor.

Ci vuole un uomo crudele per dare la caccia al male. E se Victor l'Assassino un tempo aveva una bussola morale, quell'uomo è ormai morto e sepolto insieme alle sue numerose vittime. Eppure ci sono individui talmente crudeli che, per eliminarli, persino lui accetterebbe di mettere a rischio la propria vita per ragioni diverse dal denaro. È questo il caso di Milan Rados, ex comandante paramilitare serbo sfuggito al processo all'Aia e ora a capo di una rete criminale a Belgrado.

Victor è un assassino abile, spietato, una faccia che scompare tra la folla senza lasciare indizi. Rintracciato da un vecchio contatto che gli chiede di proteggere la figlia Gisele, accetta l'incarico in nome della vecchia amicizia che lo lega a Eleanor, la madre della ragazza. Gisele è a Londra e, stando alle poche notizie che si hanno di lei, è diventata l'obiettivo dei nemici di suo padre.

Victor ha un talento naturale per l'omicidio. Sicario abile e spietato si trova costretto a lavorare per conto di un misterioso agente della CIA: tre sconosciuti, tre colpi. Ma il lavoro non è veloce e pulito come avrebbe voluto. Man mano che il killer elimina le sue vittime, si rende conto che il gioco si fa sempre più complesso, intricato e letale. Nel suo mestiere non è sempre facile tracciare una linea netta tra nemici e alleati, ma Victor si accorge di essere nel mezzo di una guerra segreta.

Victor sembra non avere passato. È risoluto, schivo, non si ferma davanti a niente, il che fa di lui un killer perfetto da assoldare. La sua prossima missione è raggiungere il sicario olandese Felix Kooi ad Algeri ed eliminarlo. Una volta portato a termine il suo compito, potrà tornarsene alla propria esistenza solitaria nella gelida Islanda. Ma la CIA, uno dei suoi principali committenti, ha altri piani: dovrà fingersi la sua stessa vittima e risalire a colui che ha assoldato Felix Kooi.

Victor ist der perfekte Auftragsmörder. Er ist das anonyme Gesicht in der Menge, der Mann, den man nicht wahrnimmt - bis es zu spät ist. Doch nun bittet ihn ein alter Bekannter um Hilfe, und zum ersten Mal besteht Victors Auftrag nicht darin, jemanden zu töten, sondern zu beschützen: die junge Giselle, Stieftochter einer russischen Unterweltgröße. Von seinen Verfolgern gnadenlos durch ganz London gejagt, muss Victor alles riskieren. Und jeder seiner Schritte lockt die Gefahr näher an Giselle, deren Leben er um jeden Preis schützen muss...

Raven ist Profikillerin. Lautlos wie ein Schatten eliminiert sie ihre Opfer, bevor diese ihre Anwesenheit auch nur erahnen. Doch diesmal könnte sie das falsche Ziel im Auge haben: Victor. Ein Killer wie sie. Ein Profi so paranoid wie rücksichtslos und perfekt darin, jeden Verfolger auszuschalten. Er spürt Raven rund um den Globus nach, nicht nur, um die Gefahr zu beseitigen, sondern um herauszufinden, wer ihr den Auftrag zu seiner Ermordung gab. In New York treffen die beiden schließlich aufeinander - ausgerechnet, als dort ein Blackout die Stadt ins Chaos stürzt. Inmitten von Plünderungen und Gewalt kommt es zwischen Raven und Victor zu einem Katz-und-Maus-Spiel, das Manhattan nie mehr vergessen wird.
