Above average crime novel about unstable hitman working for the organization. When he goes to town on a job to kill retired gangster, he encounters waitress in a diner and falls in love with her and casing the place finds where target lives together with his bodyguard. Hitman pretends to be travelling salesman, but bodyguard see through him and attempt to kill him, but he get killed instead. Unfortunately, he fucks up the job with the gangster, believing he killed him, only later to find out that he's still alive, although in a coma, as he is informed at the meeting of the organization. His colleague Sandy and boss Meyer tells him that waitress is potential risk, and in his split personality decides to cling to poor girl, killing Sandy and giving his blood money to waitress to get out of town. Unfortunately, that is the end for him, as soon three killers closes on him and kill him. Very cold novel, with almost no human emotion in all characters, but at the same time somehow poetic.
