About this listen

When retiring isn't an option, it's kill or be killed.

Stacks Fischer is a killer for hire. For more than three decades, he’s loyally served the Syndicate Corporation as its most-feared and respected enforcer around the solar system. He’s buried the company’s dirty laundry six feet deep, no matter who had to be taken out to do it.

Now, Stacks has a problem - he’s losing his mind to incurable form of dementia, and unwittingly spilling corporate secrets in public.

When SynCorp decides Fischer has outlived his usefulness, they decide it's time to permanently retire him. But Stacks isn’t quite ready to go. With every one of SynCorp’s Five Factions gunning for him - and his own mind slowly rebelling - Fischer leads a pack of would-be assassins in a final, deadly chase across the solar system.

The old hit man refuses to fade quietly into oblivion at the hands of his disease or the business he's dedicated his life to. He’s choosing an Optional Retirement Plan.

Don't miss this pulse-pounding science fiction thriller filled with twists that will leave you on the edge of your seat. It's perfect for fans of Titanborn, The Expanse, and Minority Report.

A good book with a great storyline, would have been good if it could have been made into a couple of books but you never know.....

Great Book

A great story which has given me an insight into what my own grandad went through. A very well written story which moves along at a decent pace, interlaced with some very amusing comedic moments. Highly recommended for something that's a little different.

Fast Paced and well written

This fantastic book blends sci fi with noir to produce an excellent story with a main character who you know is a bad guy but you cannot help but like him. When the story switches to him coming to terms with his disease it puts him in a different light and made me wonder how I would handle something as big as that in my life, which in my eyes is a sign of excellent writing. Overall this is a fantastic story, great characters and as usual RC Bray draws the listener into the world in such a way that you get totally absorbed.

Genuinely one of the best stories I’ve read in the last ten years. Absolutely stunning, pun intended.
