NYPD Detective Jeremy Fisk—introduced in Law & Order creator Dick Wolf’s New York Times bestselling debut The Intercept—must stop an assassin in the pay of a shadowy cartel in The Execution, a tense thriller that superbly blends suspense, politics, intrigue and high-flying action in the tradition of Vince Flynn, David Baldacci, and Robert Crais.
Ten days after the Mexican presidential election, twenty-three bodies are discovered beheaded on the United States border, each marked with a carving of a Hummingbird. Detective Cecilia Garza of the Mexican intelligence agency recognizes it: it is the signature of an assassin called Chuparosa. Garza has been pursuing the killer for years, yet knows little about him, except that he’s heading to New York—with the rest of the world.
It’s United Nations Week in Manhattan and Jeremy Fisk can’t let grief over a devastating loss keep him from safeguarding his city. Complicating matters is the startling news of a mass murder in nearby Rockaway—and the arrival of a disturbingly beautiful and assertive Mexican cop.
To have a chance at finding Chuparosa, these uneasy allies must learn to work together and fast. As they soon discover, there’s more to this threat than meets the eye—and that justice is not always blind.

Review
“[A] gripping adventure . . . Wolf has moved from strength to strength, from his early success as the creator of TV’s Law & Order to his more recent incarnation as novelist. Not to be missed!” (BookPage.com)
“A page-turning novel that reads like a compelling episode of the best television has to offer. And like his stories from Law & Order, the novel feels like it could be ripped from the headlines.” (Seattle Post-Intelligencer)
“[Wolf] is now putting his stamp in the political thriller genre challenging the likes of Brad Thor and David Baldacci . . . a master storyteller and it shows perfectly in The Execution. (Suspense Magazine)
From the Back Cover
NYPD Detective Jeremy Fisk hunts a ruthless assassin working for a cartel in the second installment of Dick Wolf's New York Times bestselling series
When a number of bodies is discovered on the U.S.-Mexico border, each carved with a bizarre hummingbird symbol, Mexican Detective Cecilia Garza recognizes the image immediately. It's the calling card of a killer called Chuparosa, a man both feared and celebrated for his cunning and brutality. Detective Garza has pursued the man for years; she knows he's merciless and she knows he's headed to New York City . . .
It's United Nations Week in Manhattan and Jeremy Fisk—an agent in the NYPD's anti-terror Intelligence Division—can't let grief over a devastating loss keep him from his duty to safeguard the city and the world's most powerful leaders. When he gets news of a mass murder in nearby Rockaway—and the arrival of a beautiful and assertive Mexican detective determined to do things her way—Fisk soon discovers that there's much more to this threat than meets the eye . . . and he will have to learn the hard way that justice is not always blind.

Reads Like A TV Script
By TMStyles
"The Execution" is prolific television writer and producer Dick Wolf's second novel, both featuring NYPD detective, Jeremy Fisk. Fisk is recovering from wounds resulting from intercepting Swedish Muslim terrorists who were sneaking into the US across the Canadian border--yes, I know it sounds screwy. He is assigned light duty including protecting diplomats during United Nations Week in New York which will include the presidents of both Mexico and the US signing a narcoterrorism treaty.
But something evil is afoot. Twenty-three headless bodies were discovered along the US/Mexico border and just as UN Week begins, more beheaded bodies are found on Rockaway Beach in Queens. A Hummingbird is found carved into these bodies, a symbol representing a depraved violent Mexican killer known only as Chuparosa. Commandante Cecelia Garza, an officer in Mexico's intelligence agency, arrives in NY to protect Mexican President Vargas while secretly hoping to find Chuparosa for personal reasons.
After some initial sparring, Fisk and Garza reluctantly team up to stop an anticipated assassination which no one else deems credible. Distrust and suspicion slowly dies between the two as potential romantic sparks begin to build; yet, there remain unspoken secrets between them that prevent romantic action. Garza has other agendas that Fisk can only speculate upon as they close in on the mysterious Chuparosa, all the while wondering who pulls his strings. The climax and its aftermath finally raised the thrill level for this reader as more than one secret and more than one killer is revealed.
I respect and enjoy Wolf's work immensely on television and I thoroughly enjoyed "The Intercept", his first novel. However, I felt this effort suffered from pacing problems and from a lack of in depth characterization. It read more like an hour long TV script that carried the reader along before realizing it was finally over. I simply did not get invested too deeply into any of the characters and the plot was slow and pedestrian until the last 50 pages when the real action and thrills were finally realized. All in all, a quick read on topics that reflect today's headlines but without the compelling elements of his first Jeremy Fisk novel.

Yes, the problem often is in the execution. Isn't it?
By enubrius
Dick Wolf is, of course, the creator of Law & Order, and all its spinoffs.
And they are, to a show, among the best TV has EVER had to offer.
And that will never change.
But, what will also never change, is a truism: There is a vast difference between writing a novel and writing a (Straight, Tele, Screen) play.
And Wolf is not alone in not being as strong in one category as he is in another.
Indeed, he is in VERY good company.
Among others, Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Tom Stoppard, and Noel Coward have written novels/stories that, at their best, aspire to mediocrity.
This is Wolf's second "Jeremy Fisk" novel after "The Intercept".
And, like its predecessor, it boasts decent characters, some very good dialogue; a plot that goes just a wee bit completely over the top; and some VERY clunky descriptive writing that, while it doesn't cause one (at least this one) to stop reading, does keep the experience from being great.
Nonetheless, it IS a decent enough "international" thriller, and not the worst way in the world to kill a few hours.

An Ok story with Ok characters
By Billz
As a fan of Dick Wolf's work, primarily Law & Order SVU, I've come to see his shows on a scale from Ok to Wow!!. This book was Ok. The main character, Jeremy Fisk, is ported over from Wolf's first novel (The Intercept). This time the book kicks off with Jeremy fighting Swedish jihadists infiltrating from Canada. (That may sound weird, but this section is one of the best written and interesting parts of the book.) As part of the NYPD Intelligence Division, Jeremy must deal with various federal agencies including Homeland Security, FBI, ICE, Marshall's Office and CIA. In addition, the UN, every foreign government, and every agency within every government has some kind of security apparatus with whom Fisk must liaise.
After the Swedish jihadists incident, Fisk (who's recuperating from the incident) is tasked by the NYPD to work with security during UN Week, an event where heads of state from all over the world converge on NYC. It's supposed to be light work, mostly desk work, but Fisk gets caught up in the drama of protecting the Mexican president who is to sign an anti-drug trafficking accord with the US president. However, Fisk gets wind of an attempt on the life of the Mexican president, dramatically announced by the discovery of several decapitated bodies on Rockaway beach (part of Queens). It has all of the hallmarks of a Mexican drug cartel execution. The victims are identified by different cartel tattoos, and Fisk comes to learn of the evil Mexican drug kingpin known as "Chuparosa." The word 'chuparosa' is a Mexican term for hummingbird (literally, 'rose sipper'), and the bad guy leaves hummingbird calling cards in his wake. Thus Fisk meets Mexican Comandante Cecilia Garza--a stunningly beautiful Mexican intelligence agent. Naturally, they get off on the wrong foot, but suffice it to say that she represents an incorruptible element of Mexican policing, and what with being a female in a male dominated profession, she's had a tough row to hoe. She's also had an immeasurable loss at the hands of kidnappers who took her mother and sister. With Fisk's recent loss of his girlfriend, there's a bit of karmatic link between the two.
Given those starting points, Fisk and Garza must fight the interagency turf wars and catch Chuparosa before he gets to El Presidente. However, no one knows what Chuparosa looks like and some even think he's a myth like Chupacabra. So not only must they stop a chimera, they have to convince their own agencies that he's a real and immediate threat. All three main characters (Fisk, Garza and Chuparoa) are interesting and well-drawn.
So why is this book, just Ok? I suppose an analogy would be following a raging river to its source. As you follow it, it becomes smaller and smaller, calms down, and eventually ends up as a brook. There's a twist at the end to be sure, but I got the feeling that it is part of a formula. If a friend asked me, I'd say, "It's Ok." Not "good" or "wow!" Likewise, I would NOT say it's 'bad' or even 'boring.' it's Ok.
