The game is assassination and Nick Carter is the target!

But suddenly there is no time, because the bullets start flying and Nick receives a warning note. He is a marked man, wanted by two assassins. One to carry out a personal vendetta, and the other to rid the field of its top agent, Nick Carter!

Reviews

[Berk E · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was an okay book. It was not as developed is could have been though. There could have been more action too. There was lots of discription on unimportant stuff and little discription on the life and death stuff. There was a good plot but wasn't really described very well.
