      Joe Flood, un Américain tranquille, a servi au Vietnam et mène une vie ordinaire avec sa petite amie tout en étant tueur professionnel. Sa carrière, fondée sur l'élimination de cibles qu'il juge méritantes, ne le dérange pas, mais des douleurs abdominales l'incitent à consulter un médecin. Ce dernier lui annonce qu'il souffre de leucémie et qu'il n'a plus que quelques mois à vivre. Refusant de mourir lentement à l'hôpital, Joe décide de lancer un contrat de six millions de dollars sur sa propre tête. Les meilleurs assassins du monde se disputent l'honneur de l'éliminer : un expert en pic à glace, un Cajun lanceur de couteaux, des jumeaux de la mafia sicilienne, une femme fatale, et un maître en arts martiaux, parmi d'autres. Joe se sent flatté par cette attention jusqu'à ce que son médecin l'appelle pour lui annoncer une erreur : il n'est pas condamné et a encore de belles années devant lui. Cependant, annuler un contrat de ce type s'avère impossible. Cette comédie noire, pleine de suspense, évoque des éléments de Pulp Fiction et est servie par un style sec et percutant. Le Times de Londres la décrit comme un divertissement à prendre au sérieux.

      The bestselling start of the original Walking Dead series, now in mass market! In Robert Kirkman's Walking Dead universe, there is no greater villain than The Governor. The despot who runs the walled-off town of Woodbury, he has his own sick sense of justice: whether it's forcing prisoners to battle zombies in an arena for the townspeople's amusement, or chopping off the appendages of those who cross him. The Governor was voted "Villain of the Year" by Wizard magazine the year he debuted, and his story arc was the most controversial in the history of the Walking Dead comic book series. Now, for the first time, fans of The Walking Dead will discover The Governor's origins and just how he became the man he is, and what drove him to such extremes.
