CONTINUATION OF THE WORLD BESTSELLER “KILLER TRAIN”. NATIONAL BESTSELLER OF JAPAN. WINNER OF THE “SHIZUOKA SHOTEN” PRIZE. At first glance, Miyake is an ordinary person with an ordinary life; He has constant stress at work, his wife puts him under his thumb and his son doesn’t really respect him. No wonder he visits his doctor so often. Except that the doctor is actually his employer. And Miyake himself is a famous assassin named Rhinoceros Beetle... Rhinoceros Beetle is one of the best at eliminating people, a jack of all trades. Nevertheless, at home he spreads a rug in front of his wife, trying (unsuccessfully) to predict her moods and desires. From time to time he wants to retire, but one person prevents him from doing so... The doctor is a curator of hired killers, one of the main dispatchers of the criminal world. A man without heart, nerves and passions. Under the guise of “patients”, he receives mercenaries in his “clinic” and distributes tasks to them, replacing the professional terms of the killers with the words “procedure”, operation”, “tumor removal”... He does not like to let the performers leave him. The rhinoceros beetle is tired of killings. The doctor says that it is possible to quit the bloody business only after several important and expensive “operations”. And they are all connected with the destruction of other professional killers. But the last such task puts both Miyake and his family in danger... THE NOVEL IS TRANSLATED FROM JAPANESE. ________________________________________________________________ "The novel... demonstrates Tarantino's combination of original wit and stylized violence." - The Times "Very entertaining and exciting...
