A Hitman's Solitude Before the Shot

Koralnik, an undercover elite hitman has gone a bit stir-crazy in the eight years since he was recruited to serve on a super-secret European anti-terrorist squad. After 9/11, he and four other sharpshooters were tapped to go deep undercover, awaiting missions of vital national security. But the phone never rang, and now he spends his days leaving messages on his own answering machine and fantasizing about bumping off his more obnoxious neighbors. Entering his life out of the blue, poor Rosa couldn’t possibly know about Koralnik’s itchy trigger finger when she targeted him for her latest con. Pretending to be an African aid worker, she accidentally rear-ends his car in a parking lot and invites herself over for a date. (CoolConnections)
