"I would adivse you, young man, to take care around anyone with the surname Firefax. I know not if the rumors be true that they be king killers, but they are, without any doubt, a dangerous family."
Legend tells of a city of gold on a phantom island. The wealth of that city could end the American Revolution. But the only person who knows the islands´location is the world´s deadliest assassin. And he´s not giving up than secret without a fight....
1781. New England
The world´s oldest family of hight-profile assassins, the Firefaxes, have been killing off dignitaries - and being well-compensated to do so - for centuries. The family is thrown into turmoil by their patriarch´s death and the return of their cunning, cruel prodigal, Murdoch. Murdoch is the only one left who knows where the Firefax wealth is, kept on a secret island. But Murdoch´s former protégé, now turned nemesis, Istäni, who is the leader of a British intelligence network, and Murdoch´s former colleagues from a Continental intelligence network are looking for that wealth. These spy networks are bent on tracking down the legendary treasure, whatever the cost, but may have met their match in this wily dysfunctional family of killers.

Spioner, lönnmördare och en skatt på en hemlig ö. Lägg till ett familjedrama och plötsligt har man läst en väldigt bra bok.
In english:
Spies, assassins, and a treasure on a secret island. Add a family drama and suddenly you've read a very good book.
