Keller is a new kind of hero for a new, uncertain age. He's cool. Reliable. A real pro: the hit man's hit man. While Keller might be a crack assassin, he's also prone to doubts and loneliness, just like everybody else. Which is why readers love to cheer for him-even when he's killing a complete stranger in cold blood. Hit Parade, the third novel featuring the fascinating Keller, displays all the hallmarks that distinguish Block's award-winning fiction: the intelligence, the clever plotting, the humor, the tricky twists and ironic turns, the darkness and emotional complexity-and above all else, the humanity.
