Bøker i André Warner, Manhunter-serien

A PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER THAT FOLLOWS AN UNCONVENTIONAL HITMAN WHO'S TRAPPED IN THE KILLING ARENA. Racked by guilt over the accidental killing of a young Italian girl, contract killer André Warner has effectively retired himself from his 'profession'. But when a contract in Tangier to assassinate an Arab drug trafficker lures him out of retirement and self-pity, he encounters an attractive American widow, Clair Power, and her precocious sixteen-year-old daughter, Liza. As he embarks on a fling that brings him into conflict with a mysterious Dutchman-who also seems to have eyes for Clair-it appears that his budding romance is destined to fail. Even more so when Clair disappears, and Warner is landed with the role of de facto guardian to Liza. In an attempt to track down his latest love interest, Warner crosses a line that brings him into conflict with the local police and sees him returning to Andorra with a distraught Liza in tow. And when the enigmatic Dutchman pitches up in Andorra and begins to take an interest in Liza, too...Warner is forced to get possessive the only way he knows-retirement be damned.

COMPELLING AND DARK, THIS PSYCHOLOGICAL CRIME THRILLER TRAILS A RELENTLESS HITMAN FACING EXTRAORDINARY OBSTACLES. André Warner is a former operative of the British Secret Service turned contract killer with over forty jobs under his belt. So, an approach from Robert Heider-an American racketeer, whose elder brother, Jeff, was assassinated two years previously-seems routine enough. Robert is resolved to avenge his brother's death, but despite exhaustive enquiries, he has been unable to identify the assassin and is willing to pay Warner a million-dollar fee to find and execute the man responsible. This kind of assignment is Warner's meat and drink. He enjoys killing bad guys...and only bad guys. This time, though, there's a fly in the ointment. Flying to Las Vegas to interview Jeff's stunning widow and glean information from her, Warner has seduction on his side. But making inquiries is only the beginning, and in a desperate attempt to find a fall guy for the killing, Warner's moral code of conduct is stretched to the max. As the enormity of each challenge becomes apparent, Warner's mission becomes more complicated by the minute. And when the net around him tightens, he realizes he has two choices-fight and die...or run and die.
