A HIT MAN WHO HAS TAKEN DOZENS OF LIVES HAS TO KILL HIS OWN DAUGHTER

When a 20-year-old American volunteer is savagely assaulted and left for dead on a windswept island off the coast of Africa, her estranged father, Bill Blake, flies to her bedside. While he tries to find the courage to terminate his daughter’s life support, the contract killer plots revenge against the men who attacked her: psycho gangbanger Johnny Zero and his crew.

Young Creole detective, Babette Cupidon, is also desperate to get Johnny Zero. He killed her partner but walks free because he pays off a police captain who sits at the center of a web of corruption. In a pulse-pounding finale, Babette puts her life at risk by forming an unlikely alliance with Bill Blake to bring Johnny Z down.

With its cinematic setting, unforgettable characters and breakneck action, THE LAST KILL is a harrowingly propulsive novel of suspense.
