What happens when a hit man suffers burnout? He's upgraded. Hollis Taylor's latest assignments are beneath his expertise-a lowlife drug dealer and a wife batterer. The days when he pitted his skills against the Mafia or KGB are gone due to cut-rate competition. The head of the secretive agency he moonlights for offers him a senior courier promotion to keep him in the fold. But a crisis the first day in his new job, and he's once more back in the hunt. Independent yet needful, hard as nails, yet sensitive, everyone looks to Hollis for answers he can't find for himself--until the final apocalyptic chapter. He's a present day Barabbas, searching for a reason to believe.
