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. What if the client is the person that turns out to be his target? What if his boss (Dot) is growing increasingly senile and accidentally accepts contracts from two different targets, on each other? Who does he terminate first? Keller also has to face the fact that his personal life isn’t terribly interesting. He goes to see a therapist to sort out his issues, but that doesn’t end well. He gets a dog, and also meets a woman and starts dating her. He starts collecting stamps. Will he find a middle ground?

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. Disinclined to mess in his own backyard, he usually gets on a plane, locates the designated target, does his homework, “closes the sale” and flies home again. And if there’s a bit of a lag between the doneness of the deed and the departure time of his jet, he and his well worn stamp catalog will visit the stamp stores in whatever city he’s in to see if he can improve his collection.

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. But that doesn’t mean you wouldn’t want to spend some time with Keller, despite his line of work. He is an intelligent, ordinary guy who just happens to be capable of extraordinary, often instantaneous, violence. It’s his job. He is careful, though, and tries not to kill innocent bystanders. But is anybody really innocent, he wonders at one point. As for bystanders, sometimes they cannot be avoided. The military has a name for bystander deaths: collateral damage. So too in crime.

Keller has an unpleasant job to do. He does it very well but does not particularly enjoy killing people. Keller does evil work but is actually a nice, apparently normal guy who readers can’t help but root for. Keller is now looking forward to retirement with his beloved stamp collecting hobby when he reluctantly agrees to “the last job.” You know trouble will ensue when something is the last job. And it does. But Keller is always careful where he leaves his prints. Then an assassination occurs and Keller wonders, “If you wanted to frame someone for murder, why not pick a murderer? Hire him to kill some nonentity, and time it so that he’s in the right place at the right time, and then frame him for the real killing, the important killing.” Shades of our collective paranoia.

A man named Nicholas Edwards lives in New Orleans renovating houses, doing honest work and making decent money at it. Between his family and his stamp collection, all his spare time is happily accounted for. Sometimes it’s hard to remember that he used to kill people for a living.
But when the nation’s economy tanks, taking the construction business with it, all it takes is one phone call to drag him back into the game. It may say Nicholas Edwards on his driver’s license and credit cards, but he’s back to being the man he always was: Keller.
