„Порода убиец“ е като танк с ракетен двигател — абсолютно брутални сцени, пропити с действие, което се движи с невероятна лекота… Майкъл Хендрикс си изкарва прехраната като наемен убиец — в известен смисъл. Убива само други наемни убийци. Срещу десет пъти цената, която плащат за главата ти, той ще се погрижи този, който идва да те убие, сам да легне в гроба.

Anthony Awards Best Novel Barry Awards Best Thriller (nominee) Macavity Awards Best First Book (nominee) Michael Hendricks is not a good man. He doesn't deserve a good life. But he is very good at his job. He's the killing kind. He knows he's a bad person, but he still has a code: he doesn't work for anyone but himself, and he never kills civilians. He hits only hitters. It's not a bad way to make a living, but it's a great way to make enemies. And now the FBI and the Mafia have Hendricks in their sights, he's about to learn just how good he really is.
Hitman with a heart of gold Michael Hendricks is back in this digital-exclusive short story. When a strip-club mogul puts out a hit on a dancer who won't give him off-the-clock attention, Hendricks takes a detour to Las Vegas to stop the job in its tracks. With tech genius Lester in his ear and a fake identity as cover, Hendricks has only one problem: he has no idea what the target looks like. Against the scorching heat of the city's desert outskirts, a case of mistaken identity nearly turns fatal, but our principled hitman has a few tricks of his own up his sleeve.
When viral video footage from a terrorist attack in San Francisco reveals that a mob informant thought dead is still alive, FBI Special Agent Charlie Thompson knows just who to contact to save her witness from certain death: Michael Hendricks. He may be a hitman, but he's not a bad guy. Teaming up with a green but determined tech whiz, Cameron, on the condition she leave him alone after the case, Hendricks reluctantly takes the job. Of course, finding a man desperate to stay hidden is challenging enough without deadly competition, let alone when that competition's shadowy corporate backer is tangled in the terrorist conspiracy playing out around them…
