Realistic no.  Fast paced yes.  A drama teacher's husband is killed and she barely escapes with her life.  She learns he was a hired assassin.  She also learned he researched his employers to protect himself and usually also the potential victims as he did not wish to kill innocents.He did not verify his last hit, he himself was targeted immediately afterward, so researched was this kill requested?  What he finds out, makes him even more of a target and he is ruthlessly hunted down and killed. As he is dying he directs his wife to run to a friend's house with a box, the box leads to  people and resources (includes tapes he has made for his wife on how to survive).The wife being a dramatist knows about disguises, but as others have pointed out, it is beyond belief that she learns to pick locks, defend herself and shoot and race car drive and leap from one vehicle to another and simply survive. She has help along the way some genuine and some not, but must rely on herself and her instincts.  Fast paced adventure, lots of plain killing but no stretched out gory details.  Good beach read and I liked.
