Former classics professor Bertrand McAbee,
now turned private investigator, has a history of unwarily
stepping into nasty cases. Th is is one of those as he comes up
against a former Marine, Alex Love, who is two things at once:
an expert sniper and supposedly dead. In the intervening years
since the Gulf War, Love has been addicted to assassinating
individuals of ill-repute. As if fate had ordained it these
two very unlike men, McAbee and Love, meet in a contest
where justice and revenge stand in opposition. Only one can
survive.
