«Hit Man» is the crime novel by Lawrence Block, published by Diagonal in paperback (416 pages, in Spanish).
Keller is a hitman who leads an orderly life, between crosswords, television and assignments that come by phone. Each job forces him to travel, kill and return home, but he increasingly doubts that this is living. The novel follows his attempts to change course, with a crime-novel tone that doesn't give up humor and irony.
The edition dates from July 2002. The cover shows a gun on red cloth and includes a quote from Fernando Martínez Laínez, from ABC Cultural.
For crime fiction readers who appreciate antiheroes and stories with dark humor.
