Getting Even — Bill Wetterman

Eddie Kellerman is in a position with no positive choices. Granted, the result of his own actions. He accepted an offer of allegiance. Now his name makes the strongest men tremble. He wields power in Cleveland Ohio and beyond its borders. He murders without conscience. But the arrow is now aimed at him. A hit on a government informant has been offered to him. He turned it down and was told he could not refuse. The plan is faulty. If he carries out his orders, he'll most likely be killed. Even if he succeeds, his enemies will hunt him down and murder him. The time has come to get even, before everything he's earned crumbles away. Getting even is like a chess game, and his opponents has launched a brutal attack. Eddie has one winning move, and he must make the move now.
