Close Range (2010)
“Would it stop a bullet?
Both front doors on the BMW clicked open, and two guys unpeeled themselves from their seats. They certainly looked like hit men, both over six feet, built like rugby players on steroids. Jake took a step back, cursing himself for being so reckless.
Suddenly a screech of tyres made him spin round. A car had blocked the near end of the alley. The Lexus. The door popped and the driver emerged.
‘Chi siete?’ Who are you?
He was trapped.
‘I’m Jake. Jake Bastin. English. Ingles...e. Capsice?‘ The men closed in on him from both sides. Jake gripped the metal lid, wondering if he could take one down and give himself time to get back out to the road. Stuff the bike.
The driver of the Lexus reached inside his black jacket.
He’s got a gun.
Jake lunged at him, driving the dustbin lid into his chest. The man fell backwards heavily and Jake charged towards the Lexus blocking the alley entrance. He was about to leap over the bonnet when the door on the far side opened.
Oh, Christ … Another one.MoreLess
