It would appear Eisler writes classy but brutal spy novels. The assassin John Rain has moved from Tokyo for business reasons: to make it harder for his enemies to get to him.
Therefore, they get to his hacker friend the old fashioned way. With a prostitute paid to turn his head.
As well as Japanese politicians that don't like him, the CIA still doesn't either. A supposed operation to help reformer politicians deal with Japan's endemic corruption is anything but. Gangsters and spooks and political leaders would rather the graft gravy train continue and a massive collapse happen hopefully after they are out of it than pain now that gets in the way of their profiteering.
Another woman in the picture, too, along with the old flame, plus a lot more expensive aged single malts along with branching out into less sexist killing as he and his fed cop friend look to gain revenge for deaths of colleagues.
