Shibumi is a bestselling novel written by Trevanian, an American author. The novel was first published in 1979 and quickly became a cult classic. Shibumi is a complex and richly detailed spy thriller that follows the story of Nicholai Hel, a master assassin and martial arts expert who is half-Japanese and half-Russian. Nicholai is a man of great intelligence and skill, but he is also deeply troubled by his past and the events that have shaped him into the person he is today.
The novel takes place in the world of espionage and global politics, as Nicholai is engaged in a deadly game of cat and mouse with various intelligence agencies and criminal organizations. Along the way, he meets and falls in love with a beautiful French woman named Madame de Lusignan, and together they must fend off a series of deadly attacks from their enemies.
Although Shibumi is a work of fiction, it draws heavily on real-world events and political issues of the time, including the Cold War, the espionage activities of the CIA and KGB, and the rise of terrorism. It is also notable for its intricate plot, well-drawn characters, and vivid descriptions of martial arts and other elements of Japanese culture.
Trevanian, whose real name was Rodney William Whitaker, was a prolific author who wrote several other successful novels in addition to Shibumi. He died in 2005.
