Publisher's Synopsis
He had retired as a professional assassin, but a new breed of suit at his former employer wants him for one more assignment and they will do anything to get him to take the job, the target, Eduardo Da Silva, leader of a movement fighting for the independence of northern Angola. Mike Fraser, trying to settle into his new profession of a photojournalist, soon finds himself the target of two contracts, one issued by an arms dealer who fears he will take the job and derail a major arms deal and one by the CIA when he turns them down. Smooth talking, ruthless Hank Jacobsen, Deputy Director National Clandestine Services, believes that the Firm has gone soft and plans to rectify that when he gets the directors corner office. When Mike's chalet on his game farm is blown up he realises that he has no option but to go to the source, but will the vengeance he seeks put an end to the mayhem. From the far reaches of north-west Limpopo in South Africa, the fast paced action moves to northern Angola, Amsterdam, a showdown in Washington and a final confrontation back in north-west Limpopo.
