Assassin Eighteen by John Brownlow | Waterstones

I loved the short, snappy chapters. As many of these chapters ended in cliffhangers, there was a constant feeling of suspense and excitement throughout and it was a struggle to tear myself away! The short chapters were perfect for keeping the pace and the action going. I would find myself reading in bed and doing the whole ‘just one more chapter’ thing about 6 times before I realise how much I am going to hate myself in the morning from staying up too late. Assassination Mastery: Like all of Dr. Ort-Meyer's clones, Agent 17 has excellent assassination, stealth and infiltration skills. As a result, he is the only character in the entire series who is able to perceive Agent 47 sneaking. This is a fresh adrenaline-charged, and snarkily funny spy thriller with an explosive climax * The Peterborough Telegraph *

TheCrime Fiction in Translation Dagger was sponsored this year by former CWA ChairMaxim Jakubowski in honour of his wife Dolores Jakubowski. This year the accolade goes to leading Spanish literary author Javier Cercas for Even the Darkest Night, which was translated by Anne McLean. Vanaf de eerste pagina’s zat ik gelijk in dit verhaal. Zoals elk goed verhaal, is er een aanloop en verwacht dus niet meteen omver geblazen te worden door de ene actie na de andere. En toch, ik zag het allemaal voor mij, zelfs de personages die nog volop hun karakter en verleden moesten blootgeven, kregen toch al een gezicht. Alsof ik een boek lang een super goeie serie gebinged heb. Joshua is Korean-American. He is also part of the vocal line in SEVENTEEN. He was casted by a talent agent in LA, USA while attending an event in Korea-town. He joined Pledis Entertainment in 2013. He didn’t know how to read and write Korean when he first moved to Korea from the United States. It’s a bit like James Bond without the fancy gadgets, or maybe like Jason Bourne. But I’d like to think that Seventeen can hold his own just fine in the spy environment. That said, I was never really sure I knew where things would end up. It’s such an unpredictable and dangerous lifestyle, and I couldn’t even hazard a guess as to who would survive this crazy cat-and-mouse game.

Years later, he was found by Sergei Zavorotko and the Mystery Man, when they were searching the facility sometime after Ort-Meyer's death. Wonwoo is one of the sub-rappers of SEVENTEEN. He is part of the HIP HOP team. When he was in middle, he had an interest to learn to play the guitar so he joined a music academy with his friend as a hobby. Pledis Entertainment was, coincidentally, holding an audition there and Wonwoo passed. His birthday is also on the 17th.Ich tue das Einzige, was mir einfällt. Als ich an der Küche vorbeikomme, schnappe ich mir die Kaffeekanne und werfe damit nach der Frau. Praktisch im selben Moment schleudert sie mir das Telefon entgegen. […] I enjoyed the snippets of Seventeen/Jone’s life that were peppered throughout the story. They ‘humanised’ him, adding context to the story and insight into his personality and I couldn’t help but root for him, even when I shouldn’t be!
