Sixty Is The New Assassin
WAS AN ASSASSIN’S ROLE AKIN TO A CEO’S ROLE? BOTH NEEDED SOME SUSPENSION OF MORALITY, A WILLINGNESS TO DO THINGS THAT MOST WOULD NOT, OR COULD NOT.
After retiring from active corporate life, sixty-year-old Ishmael Dollah keeps himself busy with regular runs around the city, tennis at the club and his book club meets. Life is good—a bit staid maybe, but good. That is until, one day, he hears of his beloved daughter-in-law’s rumoured affair. Suddenly Ishmael’s perfect world is turned upside down.
Never one to give in, Ishmael decides to take matters into his own hands. He’ll apply his sharp mind and ruthless boardroom tactics to plan not a hostile takeover, but a carefully orchestrated act of vengeance.
As he treads the fine line between right and wrong, blurring it to suit his needs, Ishmael realises he rather enjoys the process. Sixty Is the New Assassin is an intriguing blend of dark humour and suspense that will keep the reader hooked up to the very end.

The first in the Corporate Assassin's Series provided by the generous Radhika. Thank you.
We meet Ishmael, a retired CEO, husband and father. He is quite an entertaining character who lives a normal life and is an up and coming self taught assassin, who once in a while will interact with the reader, which I love. It changes the rhythm of the book and keeps you engaged.
I read the third book first as an ARC, so I kinda knew what was going to happen. Even so I didn't know how it was going to happen and was actually shocked. I was not prepared as I thought I would be. The element was surprise and attention to detail was still there. Well written with gradual suspense building and humour.
I am looking forward to reading the second in the series, Assassin's Are Our Greatest Assets.
