About the book
It should have been a simple kill
Jan van Hoek was a merciless mercenary, notorious for his role in organizing the massacre of three villages in the Republic of Cabinda-Itumba, on the west coast of Africa. He had even been awarded a medal for his brutal acts by President Cosmo Manuel. The death toll had surpassed three thousand, with men, women, and children falling victim to his atrocities. Now, he was hiding in the bustling city of New York.
For Harry Bauer, eliminating Jan seemed like a straightforward task. Armed with all the necessary information, he prepared for the mission in the comfort of his own home. The plan was simple - locate Jan, execute the kill, and return home, knowing that the world was now rid of a heinous criminal.
However, a crucial oversight had been made. When Harry arrived at the designated location, Jan was not alone. He was in the company of a mysterious woman, who quickly departed after catching a glimpse of Harry's face. This woman, as fate would have it, turned out to be Jan's daughter and a fellow employee at Afro-American Petrochemicals in New York.
A stunning yet dangerous individual, she added a new layer of complexity to the mission, leaving Harry to ponder the harsh reality - there is never a straightforward or easy kill in this dangerous world.
