Table of ContentsReviewsHaas s second thriller to feature the world-weary assassin who calls himself Columbus. in the course of preparing to murder Dolezal, Columbus meets and falls in love with an attractive rare book dealer in Rome, Risina Lorenzana. Columbus considers renouncing violence, even as he keeps his true nature a secret from Risina. After a gunman takes out Ryan, Columbus realizes that it won t be so easy to retire, as he himself becomes a target. Like Jeff Lindsay s Dexter, Columbus is a thoroughly likablevillain. He operates on the wrong side of the law, with his own moralcode and his own unique sense of compassion. It s impossible not tolike the guy, even though he explicitly and repeatedly tells us not to, just as it s impossible not to like the novel itself. --David Pitt Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
