New Espionage Thriller “Ka’n: The Assassin” by Jo Kaplan Unveils a High-Stakes Global Conspiracy

TOMAH, WI, UNITED STATES, March 6, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- An Action-Packed Spy Novel Exploring War, Intelligence, and Geopolitics in the 21st Century

Jo Kaplan’s latest novel, “Ka’n: The Assassin”, is an electrifying espionage thriller that takes readers deep into the shadows of global intelligence, warfare, and political intrigue. This gripping narrative is a masterful blend of history, conspiracy, and high-stakes action, set against the backdrop of U.S. foreign policy post-Iraq War, China’s rise in global politics, and the hidden world of mind control and advanced military technology.

The novel follows an Italian ex-mercenary fighter who, after retiring to a quiet life, is drawn back into the world of espionage when an investigation for a Swiss intelligence firm unravels a dangerous conspiracy. As he travels through exotic locations—including old Europe, Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War, and secret military bases—the protagonist is forced to confront painful memories of his past and a covert war that threatens to reshape the world order.

A thrilling excerpt from the book gives readers a glimpse into the heart-pounding suspense:
"The ambulance was traveling at high speed towards the airport. The team leader pulled out documents—everything necessary for transporting a seriously ill patient on an air ambulance. He turned to Scarlatti, wrapped in blankets and smelling of iodine, and said: ‘Now we’ll take you to the airport. You’ll be boarded onto a private plane to Athens. The crew won’t ask questions. You’ll get a new passport and a ticket to Milan. Then, someone will contact you. Try to be seen as little as possible.’"
