The Gentle Assassin - by Ryan David Jahn (Paperback)

About the Book

In 1963 a couple are brutally killed in their own home. The only survivor is the baby taken that night. Twenty-six years later, in Louisville, Kentucky, Andrew Combs confronts the man who cold-bloodedly murdered his mother. Consumed by his need for revenge, Andrew sets in motion a violent chain of events that can only end in someone's death. Andrew's father, Harry Combs, former assassin and man on the run, discovers his past has finally caught up with him. His son thinks he knows the truth, but the real story is far darker. As shadowy figures threaten Harry's new life, Harry and Andrew must work together to save themselves, and each other.
