About This Book
Timothy Carrier, having a beer after work at his friend's tavern, enjoys drawing eccentric customers into amusing conversations. But the jittery man who sits next to him tonight has mistaken Tim for someone very different--and passes to him a manila envelope full of cash."Ten thousand now. You get the rest when she's gone."The stranger walks out, leaving a photo of the pretty woman marked for death, and her address.
