From the inside flap

Nick Burke has spent his civilian life on hold. In the Madison Avenue ad agency where he frequently works marathon hours, he's known for his irreverent wisecracks, his lightning copy, his consumption of pretty girls who don't ask questions, and his tendency to vanish on weekends to a beach house where he never brings guest. When Nick Burke was twenty three, he shot a soldier he never meant to kill. When Nick is forty two, he has a reunion with his closest friend, Joel Kelsey. Over steak and bourbon in a Manhattan hotel room, after they've raked over the past they shared in the Cold War army and continued their long standing argument about the meaning of what happened to Nick in Germany, Kelsey asks Nick to kill again this time in cold blood, for the best reason, his country.
