Peccadillo - A Katla Novel (Amsterdam Assassin Series Book 2)
by Martyn V. Halm
Assassin Katla's legitimate business is the target of a hostile takeover...
Still recuperating from injuries sustained in Reprobate, freelance assassin Katla Sieltjes, expert in disguising homicide, has to take up arms against the Kau Hong, a Chinese Triad attempting a hostile takeover of her legitimate business. When not just her own life is at stake, but her lover and his friends are targeted, Katla has to wage a guerrilla war against the Kau Hong. The situation becomes increasingly complex when a Hong Kong sniper arrives and teams up with a mute enforcer from the competitive 14K Triad. Amsterdam might prove too small for Katla to play hide and seek when her enemies are skilled in search and destroy.
Peccadillo is the second novel in the Amsterdam Assassin Series. With authentic details and fast-paced action, featuring an uncompromising heroine and a supporting cast of unusual characters, Peccadillo gives a rare glimpse in the local Dutch culture, information on the famous Dutch capital, the Chinese Triads, computer hacking, sniping, clairvoyance, circumventing car alarms, martial arts, the psychology of social engineering, and the brutal effectiveness of disciplined violence.
