CHIP SHOT by William Lewis Baker
When a computer chip created to print the Euro-Dollar is stolen an experience assassin is assigned to retrieve it but when LA Detective Nick Boston looses a loved one to the blood-thirsty professonal the hunter becomes the hunted as volleys and serves fly across the tennis court to cover international intrigue, theft, and murder in William Lewis Bakers' CHIP SHOT.
EXCERPT:
Attachment to the Embassy granted Andre Rubikoff Diplomatic Immunity while within the borders of the United States. He could park anywhere in the district, when on business for the Embasssy and drive one of their specially licensed cars in any manner he wished, without being ticketed. This alone was enough for some people to say that Embassy Attaches got away with murder. Which in Andres' case was genuinely true.
Upon reaching his room the first thing he did was to make sure he had the name of the second person on the list. He took the list from his pocket. He read the name. The name was Suzanne Daly. The next thing Andre did was to check the wall cabinet in his room.
Andre unlocked the double door to the cabinet and saw on the second shelf, just at eye level, a polished wood grain attache' case. He removed the case, laid it on the bed and opened it. A disassembled semi-sutomatic weapon with polished wood stock lay silent in its case. Andre snapped it shut. He replaced the case to the shelf and a knock came at the door.
