Description

"How does a gunman retire? Frank MacLeod was the best at what he does. Thoughtful. Efficient. Ruthless. But with his health failing him, how long before he's no longer of use to his employers? A new job. A target. But something is about to go horribly wrong. And up-and-coming hitman Calum MacLean will be called upon to pick up the pieces. Most gunmen say goodbye to the world with a bang. Frank's still here. No longer in his prime, certainly. But with decades of experience at the top of his profession. Underestimating such a man could prove to be deadly" --

It has been a while since I read his last book and I'd kind of forgotten about his style of writing. So the sentences are still short in fact so short at times it tends to get in the way of the story and if not that then just annoying. Other than that the story's fine.

2nd of a trilogy about Glasgow and a hired gun...

Frank has been Jamieson's gunman almost all his life. He's got a bank account with lots of cash, but nothing to spend it on as he knows nothing is more traceable than cash. He's getting older, but still highly respected. Then he makes a mistake. He knows, and everyone else knows, including the copy

trying to turn him, that it's the end of the line. "Gunmen don’t get happy retirements. Nobody gets to walk away."

I would suggest starting with the first book in the trilogy, but it's not absolutely necessary. An intriguing series. On to the third.
