โฆ Synopsis
The job went off like a dream score, every move just as Parker had planned it, and the take was bigger than any of them had imagined. Now they could all lie in the sun and take it easy for a year or so. But suddenly the big cross was on, pulled by some bold and mysterious thief. First he killed Parker's girl. Then he took Parker's money. Then he tried to take Parker's life. Parker went ice-cold. No one dared cross him. No one. Yet someone had served warning that he meant to see Parker dead -- dead and without the price of a decent funeral in his pocket. Had some professional gone off the deep end? Or worse, was Parker dealing with a brilliant amateur? Former title: The Seventh.
