What to expect

Seventeen is a hitman, the best in the world, so-called because there were sixteen before him, stretching back through the decades. Every government organization in the world wants his services and every other high-level hitman has placed a target on his back. Because to be the best, you have to beat the best.

When Seventeen is ordered to find and kill his predecessor, the hit goes wrong and hunter turns to hunted. An ultraviolent duel develops between two assassins at the height of their powers, but when they fight themselves to a standstill, the real target of the hit emerges, and they must join forces to defeat their joint enemy - and in the process prevent an unjustified war that could kill hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians.

Seventeen is the first in a series that is action-packed, smart and driven by a fresh, sharp voice that will stick with you long after listening.
