Shiro dying is a crime and I hate this book because I loved him so much. "Hold my glasses" and then he kicked butt. This book went in one ear and out the other and I forgot it as soon as I was done reading it. I liked Michael and Molly and Shiro, but nothing about this book stuck. I might have to re-read this. I actually forgot that he is tracking down the thieves that stole the Shroud of Turin to give to Marcone which is a main plot thread.
The duel reminded me of John Wick's duel but not as good. Even had Asian dude as a second lol. Shiro was nearly exactly like Caine but with less character development and not as cool but that's what i pictured in my head.
Until listening to a review of this book, Nicodemus completely slipped my mind. He wears a noose as a necktie that Judas hung him with. It's interesting to hear this after the fact because I literally don't remember this character at all. I will have to re-listen to this.
