Billy Summers

Billy Summers is an ex-Marine sniper who has become a highly-skilled killer for hire, but with one personal rule: he only accepts jobs to kill truly bad people. He's ready to retire from the life of an assassin, but is offered a final, extremely lucrative job: a $2 million contract to kill a fellow hitman, Joel Allen, who is about to be extradited and may give up valuable information to police. The job requires Billy to go deep undercover for an extended period in a small Southeastern town called Red Bluff, posing as a writer named David Lockridge to observe the courthouse from his rented office. While waiting for the target's arraignment, Billy truly begins to write his own life story. Though he is an expert at vanishing after a hit, he grows increasingly suspicious about the details of the job and his mysterious employers. What could possibly go wrong? How about everything. This novel is a spectacular thriller and part war story, exploring themes of luck, fate, and a complex antihero with one last shot at redemption.
