X's For Eyes by Laird Barron
Brothers Macbeth and Drederick Tooms should have it easy as privileged scions of a wealthy and esteemed business family. But life is never simple when you're heirs to the Sword Enterprises empire, an org that takes The Prince as a playbook and whose boss wants 'Death, the destroyer of worlds' as its logo. Then there's those brutal winters at Mountain Leopard, the school for assassins in the Himalayas, plus the fact their dad's a supervillain and Uncle likes to murder kin for fun. Oh, and a wormhole-bound probe summoning an alien deity. Now a sinister cult and fierce rival corporation are after the boys, certain they possess hidden knowledge and willing to kill innocent lives to get it. Tooms boys are in for a wild summer holiday, courting peril of the corporate and mythical variety.
