Paul Moses has peacefully retired - until his former employers deem him too dangerous to stay alive. The CIA has forgotten his training... but Moses still remembers. When a group of assassins disrupts his isolation, the veteran agent returns to action, spreading death around him, while those responsible for the return of a ruthless killer sit safely in their offices. At least that's their intention. But Moses has different plans...

Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner join forces to tell the bloody action story that inspired the film of the same name starring Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, and Helen Mirren.

"Ellis' top works are character-driven thrillers with high ideals and a tough attitude."
