Publisher's summary

The Assassin - the world’s most successful contract killer. Ice cool, accurate, and elusive. An anonymous professional with a unique calling card - one bullet in the head and one in the chest for each of his targets.

An ex-member of the SAS, Mike Cramer is the perfect sacrificial bait. When the FBI discover the next name on the assassin’s hit list, Cramer is set up to take his place. But Cramer’s past has caught up with him. Ex-IRA extremist Dermot Lynch blames Cramer for his lover’s death, and he’s out for revenge. As Cramer trains for the most dangerous mission in his career, Lynch hunts down his sworn enemy. And the unknown assassin silently closes in on his target. The players are in position for the final, deadly game….

Tried it twice. I have to return it.

The narrator will kill this author. Chinaman was great but this one is hard to comment on. I didn't know what was going on from the start.

Shaking My Head

Was hoping for better but.... I normally don't like to comment because writers have it hard but this could have been so much better. The narrator needs to be changed to someone who is able to do real character voices or character voices need to be attributed to each character. Maybe that alone could have done a sight better. I have the same comments as the last book #2, the pronounciations of Quanico and Uzi, very annoying...and that was just THOSE words. And did you really have to have the bad guy monologuing AND killing the main character WITH and Asian girl mourning him? You could have at least "bigged up" his character personality so he was at the least, worth mourning. I was already a little pissed that you killed the "Chinaman" in the last book, now this? SMH, Shaking My Head!
