Last War Dance (The Destroyer) (Volume 17)
The Revolutionary Indian Party is demonstrating near the midwestern town of Wounded Elk, intent on a final showdown against the U.S. Government. Only CURE€"and a lone retired Air Force general€"know that a doomsday weapon, codename Cassandra, is concealed within a nearby monument. Remo and Chiun are needed to divert an Indian attack against the monument, divert an Indian attack from the real local Indians, divert an impossibly dedicated KGB operative, and divert annihilation from a disastrous explosion. And as always, they're needed to maintain the secrecy of their operation in the face of 24 hour media coverage and a growing trail of bodies.
ABOUT THE SERIES: Sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit, ex-cop Remo Williams is rescued from the electric chair and recruited by a secret government organization as an assassin, targeting criminals who are beyond the law. Remo's trainer is a curmudgeonly old Korean named Chiun, whose mastery of the terrifyingly powerful martial art of Sinanju makes him the deadliest man alive.
The winning combination of action, humor, and mysticism has made the Destroyer one of the best-selling series of all time. With more than 150 books and over 50 million copies sold worldwide, the Destroyer has been praised by the LA Times as "flights of hilarious satire," and gave birth to the mythology of the brash young Westerner taught by an ancient, inscrutable master.
