It's not a bad way to make a living, but it's a great way to make enemies. And now the FBI and the mafia have Hendricks in their sights, he's about to learn just how good he really is.

Michael Hendricks ist ein Auftragskiller der ganz besonderen Art: Er tötet ausschließlich andere Auftragskiller. Er weiß, wen das organisierte Verbrechen als Nächsten aus dem Weg räumen will. Er weiß, wie und wo man das rauskriegt. Sein Geschäftsmodell: Er sucht das Opfer auf, sagt ihm gnadenlos die Wahrheit - und macht ein Angebot, das man nicht ausschlagen kann: Zahl mir zehnmal so viel wie dem Killer, der auf dich angesetzt ist, und ich blas dem Kerl das Lebenslicht aus. Bisher hat er noch nie danebengeschossen, vierzig Mal tödliche Präzision. Doch dann steht er plötzlich selbst auf der Abschussliste eines Auftragskillers.
