Satori by Don Winslow
Fascinating spycraft.
The CIA wants Nicholas Hel to assume the identity of a French arms merchant and kill the Soviet Union’s Commissioner to China. In return, they will release him from the prison where he’s been held for three years and give him money and a new passport. His aristocratic Russian mother and surrogate Japanese father have taught him seven languages, rare assassin skills and the ability to pass easily as a citizen of multiple cultures. Fascinating spycraft.
