The Killer's Game

Written by Jay Bonansinga

Narrated by Robert Forster

Joe Flood is a principled hit man who only accepts contracts on people who deserve to be killed. But now that his doctor has told him he has only a few months to live, Joe would like to call the shots himself for once— literally. He puts out a contract on his own life— with a six-million-dollar reward— and all of his finest competitors take up the challenge. But the next news Joe gets is bad: The lab has made an error, and he is in perfect health. As any good hit man knows, there's no way to call off a contest like this one. In a dark comedy of deadly errors, Joe and his stalkers set out on a breakneck, kill-or-be-killed romp that bristles with suspense.
