Damian and Carrie Rose are assassins for hire currently recruited to create havoc on San Dominica.
Peter MacDonald is an ex-military American drop out, working in a resort on San Dominica.
One afternoon while cycling he sees Damian Rose while the first of the Machete murders is going down. Peter is now the only man alive able to identify Damian.
And while Damian and Carrie continue to create murder and mayhem, Peter is trying to get someone to take his sighting seriously.
When Peter's girlfriend is killed, authorities do take him seriously, but by then it's a case of kill or be killed. And exactly who is double crossing who?
Not Patterson at his best, but definitely not at his worst either. The story is original enough to make it interesting. And as (almost) always, Patterson is easy to read.
