Henry Kals era il miglior cecchino dell'esercito, preciso e letale, ma la guerra gli ha lasciato addosso solo insonnia, bottiglie vuote e ricordi che non smettono di sanguinare. Jago Torres, invece, non ha mai avuto bisogno di una guerra per diventare un mostro. È un sicario leggendario, spietato, imprevedibile, incapace di provare rimorso e non sbaglia mai un colpo. Ma dentro la sua testa ci sono voci che sussurrano senza tregua, lo tengono sveglio e lo spingono sempre più vicino alla follia. Quando i due si vedono per la prima volta il loro incontro dovrebbe finire in un massacro ma qualcosa cambia: Henry e Jago riconoscono subito qualcosa l'uno nell'altro: la stessa oscurità, la stessa dipendenza dalla violenza, lo stesso bisogno disperato di non sentirsi soli. Così cambiano le regole del loro lavoro. Ma mentre sangue, ossessione e desiderio iniziano a confondersi, il pericolo è più vicino di quanto pensano perché in un mondo costruito su bugie, violenza e tradimenti, amare qualcuno può essere l'errore più letale di tutti.

She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.
