Excerpt

1979. Donald Lavoie, a fearsome hitman, works under the orders of Claude Dubois, the mob boss of southwest Montreal. The assassin takes under his wing young rookie Serge Rivard, a hotheaded petty thief who soon compromises him in a dirty double murder. Thanks to the lawyers dearly paid by the Dubois clan, Donald escapes justice, but that’s only part of the story for Detective Sergeant Roger Burns, who tries to convince Lavoie to become an informer. 

To test his killer’s devotion, Dubois asks him to eliminate someone close to him. When he disobeys this order, Donald joins forces with other criminals to plan a bank robbery to finance his exile to the South. Hunted by the Dubois clan on one side and Burns’ investigators on the other, Donald finds himself caught in a tightening vise.
