Summary
The assassins of Barry Eisler’s #1 bestseller The Killer Collective are back—and this time， it’s chaos。
Assistant US Attorney Alondra Diaz hates traffickers。 And she’s determined to put one of America’s most powerful financiers， Andrew Schrader， in prison forever for his crimes against children。
But Schrader has videos implicating some of the most powerful members of the US national security state。 To eliminate Diaz， the powers that be bring in a contractor: Marvin Manus， an implacable assassin whose skills have been forged in intelligence， the military， and the hardest prisons。
Enter former Marine sniper Dox and black-ops veteran Daniel Larison with an unusual assignment: not to kill Diaz， but to keep her alive。
A lot of players are determined to acquire the videos and the blackmail power they represent。 But with Seattle sex-crimes detective Livia Lone， “natural causes” killer John Rain， and Mossad honey-trap specialist Delilah， the good guys might just have a chance。
They’re not going to play by anyone else’s rules。 They’re not going to play by any rules at all。 They want a different kind of fight。 The chaos kind。

Excellent book that lives up to the name。。。As a fan of Eisler's works， The Chaos Kind includes an "Avenger like" cast of characters: Rain and Delilah who are supposedly enjoying the retired life; Dox and Livia who have had a steamy romance， but have not seen each other in a long while; Larison who is his usual scary self， decides to show a softer side; Kanezaki who typically procures all of the gear， seems to be more invested in this op; Evie， Dash and Manus， who are a new family yet unable to e Excellent book that lives up to the name。。。As a fan of Eisler's works， The Chaos Kind includes an "Avenger like" cast of characters: Rain and Delilah who are supposedly enjoying the retired life; Dox and Livia who have had a steamy romance， but have not seen each other in a long while; Larison who is his usual scary self， decides to show a softer side; Kanezaki who typically procures all of the gear， seems to be more invested in this op; Evie， Dash and Manus， who are a new family yet unable to escape the 'hit-man' life; plus a few new characters that add dimension to the story line。 This intertwining cast of characters sets out to battle a corrupt and toxic government agency， which includes some intense and violent combat scenes， sure to enthrall the reader。 Not as much detail about martial arts as some of Eisler's previous works involving Rain and Livia， but still a page-turner。 'Chaos' at is's finest， Barry Eisler style。 **I received this as an eARC and have no financial interests or relationships to disclose。 。。。more
