Akira Satou is no ordinary man. Under the alias “Fable,” he’s spent years moving stealthily through the shadows of the Japanese underworld. Few can match his lethal efficiency and calm precision. When targets need eliminating without a trace, international kingpins know to call on Fable. But after his latest mission pushes his body count too high, even those hidden puppet masters decide it’s time for a change.
Fable’s boss tells him to disappear for a year, shedding his notorious identity. In Osaka, Akira will pose as an everyday citizen under police watch. Any slip that reveals his real work means death for him and his partner, Yoko. It’s an unthinkable task for a man so talented at ending lives. Can someone trained since childhood to thrive in danger truly blend in as plain old Akira? And will the streets of Osaka remain quiet if this “killer whale” swims their waters unchecked?...
