Bullet Train's hapless underworld operative and his handler are back in this thrilling new novel from internationally bestselling author Kotaro Isaka

In Bullet Train, Ladybug was tasked by Maria with retrieving a suitcase from a high-speed train in Japan. The job did not go according to plan, to the delight of millions of readers and movie fans around the world.

Will the unluckiest assassin in the world will find things easier this time around?

All he has to do is deliver a birthday present to a guest in a luxury Tokyo hotel. It seems the simplest assignment, but by the time he leaves the guest's room one man is dead and more will soon follow. As events spiral out of control, it becomes clear that several different killers, with various missions, disguises, and signature techniques, are all staying in the hotel at the same time. And they're all particularly interested in a young woman with a photographic memory.

Can Ladybug find out the truth of what's going on? And can he make it out alive?

In this inventive follow-up to the international bestseller Bullet Train, Kotaro Isaka demonstrates his unparalleled gift for unique characters, gripping action, and surprising twists.
