Loo and her father, rugged hit man Hawley, have an unbreakable bond. It‘s them against the world (quite literally in several cases). This father-daughter relationship is the beating heart of the novel. Hawley has bullet holes covering his body, and how each one enters is a backstory, uncovering bits of his past in chapters alternating with the present action. The chapters that took place in the past were like short stories.
