About this listen

The death of a journalist from a single bullet to the heart makes for a dramatic story - but the twist in the tale is that this time, it's the man who fired the gun who's asking all the questions... The assassin, Michael Weston, knows he has carried out his assignment successfully. One mistake was enough, a long time ago, when a young girl had accidentally received the fatal bullet. Her father hired a PI named Hoffer to track him down. Every time Weston completed a job, Hoffer was not far behind. But why had the police been on the scene so quickly? Weston has to find out - even if it means coming face to face with Hoffer...

lobed it. Ian ranking writing as Jack Harvey. Great story. from start to finish I was hooked

one of my favourite books

The beginning was tight, intelligent, then it slowly became unbelievably boring. A bad sign, when I just skip bits, to find out what on earth the explanation is going to be and it was a huge, and I do mean huge, disappointment. I guess it paid the mortgage though. I always wonder with a collaboration, who wrote which bits, and more to the point, why.

Started really well
