Killing Time
About this ebook
Originally published in THRILLER 2 (2009),
edited by #1 New York Times bestselling author Clive Cussler.
In this Thriller Short, bestselling author Jon Land brings his trademark suspense to the fore.
Fallon is a seasoned assassin who's both a sociopath and a hero. He's assumed the identity of a small-town middle-school English teacher in a last-ditch attempt to escape the clutches of his former employer, who's determined to exact revenge against him. When his past catches up to him, the situation escalates and Fallon finds himself—and his students—in danger. He must do what he does best.
Kill.
