The Killing Hands (2009)
“All I can hear is beep…beep…beep. As my eyes open fully I make sense of the noise—heart monitor. I’m in hospital.“She’s awake.”I move my head to the voice. Petrov.“Agent Petrov.” My voice is raspy and dry. Weak. I suddenly recall that I was shot. “I was shot.”“Yes.” He moves closer.“Sorry about that.”I freeze. It’s the voice. Miki. I instinctively reach under the pillow for my gun, but it’s not there. I’m not at home now. I turn my head to the other side of the room and Marcus from my kung fu c...lass stands next to Agent Joe De Luca. And then I realize—Marcus and Miki are one and the same person.“He’s the one who shot me.” I shake my head, wondering when I’ll wake up from this nightmare. Or maybe I’m dead.“Agent Sophie Anderson, meet Special Agent Dan Young from the DEA.”“Agent? DEA?”“Hi.” He grins. “Sorry about shooting you. I went for your shoulder. It was the best I could do under the circumstances.”“DEA?” I repeat, still trying to get around the concept that Marcus from kung fu is really a DEA agent called Dan Young, who is obviously undercover in the Yakuza.MoreLess
