Publisher Description
John isn't your typical middle aged man. A former member of the French Foreign Legion, he slowly grooms himself into one of the world's most lethal assassins, one that was available to the highest bidder for virtually any job. It didn't matter if his services were paid for by corrupt governments, underworld mobs or even terrorist organizations; if you have the money and need someone eliminated, John was the assassin to hire . He is the messenger.
Yet during his most recent job, John is haunted by flashbacks of his childhood, his training, and is forced to reflect if this is really the kind of life he wants to have. To make matters worse, John learns that his current client plans to kill him at the end of the job rather than pay him his standard fee. What should have been a walk in the park for a professional assassin suddenly turns into a fight for his life.
In the middle of a country that he isn't too familiar with, John is forced to do something he rarely likes; ask others for help. This is a tough task for a man who prefers to work alone but necessary if he wants to make it out of Africa with his reputation and his life. Tormented by his past and doubts about his future, John starts to question everything he'd been doing for the past decade and whether or not he wants to keep killing for hire or walk away while he still can.
