A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Pick
By the internationally bestselling author of Bullet Train, the high-octane new thriller, set in Tokyo's criminal underworld, pits an ordinary man against a group of talented and very unusual assassins

Three Assassins is the high-stakes, high-style, and utterly propulsive follow-up to Kotaro Isaka's international bestseller, Bullet Train, a Crime Reads "Most Anticipated Book of 2021."

Suzuki is an ordinary man until his wife is murdered. To get answers and his revenge, Suzuki abandons his law-abiding lifestyle and takes a low-level job with a front company operated by the crime gang Maiden, who are responsible for his wife's death. Before long, Suzuki finds himself caught up in a network of quirky and highly effective assassins:

The Cicada is a knife expert.
The Pusher nudges people into oncoming traffic.
The Whale whispers bleak aphorisms to his victims until they take their own lives. 

Intense and electrifying, Three Assassins delivers a wild ride through the criminal underworld of Tokyo, populated by contract killers who are almost superhumanly good at their jobs.
