“Get ready to duck—because this is a powerful left hook of a novel. With the same sharp, no-nonsense style that made him a top crime reporter, Robin Yocum channels the voice of Angelo Cipriani, a gun-for-hire who’s done some nasty things in his time. But nobody’s perfect, right? You’ll find yourself rooting for Angelo—and savoring this fast-paced, captivating tale.”
—Julia Keller, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of the Bell Elkins Novels
“I don’t quite know how he did it, but Robin Yocum has created, in the gangland assassin Angelo Cipriani, one of the most likable cold-blooded killers ever encountered in fiction. The Last Hitman is flat-out the best crime novel I’ve read in years.”
—Donald Ray Pollock, author of The Devil All the Time
“Confession: I have a mad crush on 69-year-old Angelo Cipriani, a made man and killer of bad and not-so-bad guys. This is a wonderful, beautifully written story, told with the surety of a gripping, brutally frank memoir. Angleo is humble, loyal, romantic, and has a secretly tender heart. The Last Hitman is the tale of a man finally becoming himself. It’s also one hell of an underworld tale, and I’m here for every riveting word of it!”
—Laura Benedict, Edgar-nominated author of The Stranger Inside
“Robin Yocum has written a magical book. The Last Hitman is compelling and compulsive reading, with a brilliantly constructed protagonist. Angelo Cipriani is the kind of character every author aspires to create, a hitman with a heart full of love, life, and vengeance.”
—Mark Pryor, author of the Hugo Marston mystery series
