Henry Pride

“Why are you doing that?”
Without turning or pausing in his work, Henry said, “Because I must.”
“Who are you?” she asked in amazement.
Henry missed the deeper question and answered mechanically.
“I am Henry Pride.”

Henry Pride is a simple man with few needs. To live a solitary life with as little human contact as possible and follow a strict routine are his only requirements. His condition demands it of him. However, as an assassin such limitations are often challenging. For more than 20 years, Henry has managed to maintain the balance. Cleaning, reading, solving puzzles, and contriving ingenious accidents filled his days and Henry was content.
Men of wealth and power have put great plans into motion, plans now derailed by a choice made by a hit man, whose name they do not even know. An entire organization may collapse if one woman does not die. However, even from within there is betrayal and the key to success will be in finding the assassin, an odd man named Henry Pride.
