John Rain flees to Brazil but is pulled back into CIA affairs and finds competition for his scheduled hit. He takes out the hit man and runs into an Israeli agent trying to get arms information out of his target. He backs off to give her time and fends off six Saudi attackers. He enlists the help of another CIA agent and together they thwart the missile sale but lose out on the $5 mission payoff.

Another interesting plot.

Inicio cheio de ritmo, cenas de pancaria non stop...
Mas depois a acçao vai perdendo fulgor, daí nao ter dado as 5*.
Apesar de não perceber nada de judo e artes marciais, este gajo dá-lhe bem :) Gosto deste John Rain, é pena nao haver mais livros editados em português :( lá vou ter de recorrer ao bookdepository...
4.5*

#3 in the John Rain series. 2005 Barry Award for Best Novel. Rain Storm is AKA: Choke Point [2005]. John Rain is a half-America, half-Japanese Viet Nam veteran living in Tokyo as a freelance assassin.

John Rain retires from the assassin business and moves to Sao Paulo. Eventually he moves to Rio and reunites with Naomi, which allows the CIA, in the person of ex-marine sniper Dox, to find him. He is pressured to accept a contract on Algerian arms dealer Belghazi, accompanied by the beautiful and mysterious Delilah, currently operating in Hong Kong and Macau.

One of the last superior Rain stories.

This was one of the last great Rain stories before the storyline started losing its focus and awesomeness. Rain is a fantastic character and the subsequent stories in this line we simply not up to par with this and earlier Rain stories.
