The target must be a truly bad person, because he will not go after innocents. ![]() Ever since leaving the military, he’s been making a living as a killer for hire, making a name for himself as being the best in the business because he always delivers. The eponymous protagonist of Billy Summers is a former sniper in the Marines and a veteran of the second Iraq War. Admittedly it wasn’t a complete miss, but personally speaking, it was also far from anything I would call a hit. In any case, I became too overconfident, and in hindsight I probably should have passed on this one. Maybe it’s because I had a rather good run with the last few King novels I read, or the fact that the synopsis to this one sounded a bit different from what I was expecting. With Billy Summers though, I broke with that trend. Stephen King books can be hit or miss with me, which is why I don’t often pick them up right at release, preferring to hang back to see what other reviews are saying before I take the plunge myself.
