Hit Parade

It is a truism of noir fiction that the bad guys are often more fun than the good. This certainly holds true for Keller. Keller is the type of reserved, good-natured, nondescript fellow you might find yourself sitting next to during a business flight to Detroit. He'll tell you about his stamp collection, but will not talk much about his business because his business is murdering people for a fee.

Hit List

He's a passionate stamp collector who likes art and dogs and who shows up for jury duty when he's called. He lives in Manhattan and, when packages of approval stamps come from dealers all over the country, he goes through the stamps in a couple of days, selects the ones he wants and returns the ones he doesn't along with a check for those he's selected and a handwritten note for the dealer. What's difficult to reconcile is what Keller does for a living. He's a hit man. Less euphemistically: he kills people for money.

Hit Man

Keller is a normal guy, likes to do the crossword puzzle, watch television and lead a pretty normal lifestyle. Until his phone rings, and a woman known as Dot sends him off to various locations to kill certain people. The speed and method depend on how fast the client wants the job done. Keller isn't a sadist, he doesn't get any particular enjoyment out of ending these people's lives, but he doesn't have many other skills that can earn him such a lucrative living. He also faces several conundrums.
