Summary: | Like many of the greatest noir thrillers, Jacques Tardi's latest offering begins with a classic set-up: Martin Terrier, the hired killer, needs just one more big job so that he can turn in his guns, return to his native village to find and marry his childhood sweetheart - and retire. But nothing goes as planned and his last job turns out to be a set-up that results in a bloody shootout. Soon he's on the run from the authorities, his treacherous ex-bosses and the members of a crime syndicate still seeking revenge for a hit on one of their own. |
