Timothy Carrier, having a beer after work at his friend’s
tavern, enjoys drawing eccentric customers into amusing
conversations. But the jittery man who sits next to him
tonight has mistaken Tim for someone very different—and
passes to him a manila envelope full of cash.
“Ten thousand now. You get the rest when she’s gone.”
The stranger walks out, leaving a photo of the pretty woman
marked for death, and her address. But things are about to
get worse. In minutes another stranger sits next to Tim.
This one is a cold-blooded killer who believes Tim is the
man who has hired him.
Thinking fast, Tim says, “I’ve had a change of heart. You
get ten thousand—for doing nothing. Call it a no-kill fee.”
He keeps the photo and gives the money to the hired killer.
And when Tim secretly follows the man out of the tavern, he
gets a further shock: the hired killer is a cop.
Suddenly, Tim Carrier, an ordinary guy, is at the center of
a mystery of extraordinary proportions, the one man who can
save an innocent life and stop a killer far more powerful
than any cop…and as relentless as evil incarnate. But first
Tim must discover within himself the capacity for
selflessness, endurance, and courage that can turn even an
ordinary man into a hero, inner resources that will
transform his idea of who he is and what it takes to be
The Good Guy.
