The Blonde Assassin is not one but two people, called the Murto twins in 007 First Light. Niko and Tero Murto are the assassin duo from Tampere, Finland. They are highly adept at unarmed combat, improvisation, and social infiltration.
After defusing the first bomb under the hotel in Slovakia during the “All The Time in The World” mission, Bond finally meets the twins. After the mission ends, Moneypenny briefs more about them and tells that the twins work with the Golden Mask in 007 First Light.
