As Breathing by Marcus Sakey
Sammy’s the planner, good with electronics, surveillance, computers. Billy Dexter is the point man, the finisher. For years they were the most sought-after hit team in the country.

Until Dex stopped killing.

But when the woman he loves is in trouble, Dex discovers that murder is an easy habit to return to—for him, it’s as natural as breathing.

A short story from the author of THE BLADE ITSELF and GOOD PEOPLE.
