Now, one of the greatest difficulties of the profession is advertising.

No one can hire a hitman if they don’t know where to find him.  But, if there’s one thing a hitman can’t afford, it’s to be found by just anyone.  Over the years, many solutions have been proposed for this particular problem.  Clubs, job fairs, personals ads and dead-drop mailboxes.  The advent of the internet eased things considerably, but brought its own set of security risks.

This is not one of those.  

It is not even one of those stories which simply finds itself told, for no better reason than that it exists.  No, this story is one which must be dragged, kicking and screaming and biting and pissing all over your trouser legs, out of the darkness and forced into the light of day, leaving everyone involved – reader and writer and story itself – feeling dirty and violated.

It is not a good story.

It will not be well written.  Absolutely refuses, in fact.

But here it is, all the same.

You have been warned.
