Nicholai Hel is the world's most wanted man. Born in Shanghai
during the chaos of World War I, he is the son of an aristocratic
Russian mother and a mysterious German father and is the protege of
a Japanese Go master. Hel survived the destruction of Hiroshima to
emerge as the world's most artful lover and its most
accomplished--and well-paid--assassin. Hel is a genius, a mystic,
and a master of language and culture, and his secret is his
determination to attain a rare kind of personal excellence, a state
of effortless perfection known only as "shibumi.
Now living in an isolated mountain fortress with his exquisite
mistress, Hel is unwillingly drawn back into the life he'd tried to
leave behind when a beautiful young stranger arrives at his door,
seeking help and refuge. It soon becomes clear that Hel is being
tracked by his most sinister enemy--a supermonolith of
international espionage known only as the Mother Company. The
battle lines are drawn: ruthless power and corruption on one side,
and on the other . . . "shibumi.
