As a hit man from the time he was very young, money, women, and danger have always ruled Gideon’s life; but for the first time, the job is taking its toll. Neither Gideon nor the city of Buenos Aires has recovered from the mayhem caused during Gideon’s last job. But before the dust has settled and the bodies have been buried, Gideon calls in backup—including the lovely Hawks, with whom Gideon has heated memories—to launch his biggest act of revenge yet...one he believes will destroy his adversary, Midnight, once and for all.
Yet Midnight and his second-in-command, the beautiful and ruthless Señorita Raven, are launching their own revenge, assembling a team of mercenaries the likes of which the world has never seen… and Gideon isn’t their only target. Gideon will need all of his skills if he is to save not only his team, but his family as well.
Dickey’s new novel stirs up a whirlwind of sex and violence that spans the globe...and leaves no moral boundary uncrossed.

In the fifth installment of the Gideon series, the eponymous assassin plots a second revenge against his childhood enemy--if Midnight doesn't get his revenge first.Bitter, scarred, and missing an eye, the mercenary known in Spanish as Medianoche is still very much alive and staying in a hotel in Buenos Aires, where he dreams of killing Gideon many years after the boy shot him in the face. Flashbacks to Medianoche's first encounters with Gideon's mother, a beguiling French prostitute, in Montego Bay explain a few details that Gideon missed about his connection to the man who used to frequent his mother's bedroom while he was trying to sleep. Although there are a few unsavory scenes of underage prostitution and childhood trauma (the least disturbing of which is an improper use of Nyquil), the women and children harmed in this story fight back twice as hard, making it fun to root for the -fathead cereal-eating Nyquil drinking sonofawhore- who maims the crass old man and grows up to finish the job. More sex, violence, and coarse language ensue as Gideon and his crew take on Medianoche and the rest of the Four Horsemen--plus horsewoman Senorita Raven--to try to settle the score. Recaps from Gideon's past ensure that readers who are new to the series will be able to follow the plot, but fans will be able to spot more details from previous books. The awkward circumstances that brought the protagonists together make them compelling rivals in this tale of obsession and betrayal.COPYRIGHT(2017) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
