Colin Finch wasn’t supposed to be here. He wasn’t supposed to be alive. In fact, he’d hired a professional hitman to take him out— only to change his mind at the last possible second and end up on the run, pursued by a deadly contract he had no way of escaping.
After flipping the switch on his own death, Colin thinks he’s won the game, until he realises that no one walks away from the Syndicate. As the myth of Colin Finch spreads across the underground world, he finds himself caught in a spiralling mess of lies, betrayal, and hitmen who are always one step ahead.
But Colin is no ordinary man. With his life already forfeit, he decides to make a choice that will rewrite the rules: he will take control, or die trying. As the world hunts for him, Colin must navigate a treacherous game where every ally could be a foe, every step could be his last, and every deal comes at a price.
In this darkly comic fable of survival, freedom, and the cost of living, Colin’s life becomes a twisted labyrinth of choices he didn’t make, but now must face. With every move he makes, a new contract is written, but the question remains: can he escape the myth he’s become, or will he be swallowed whole by the shadows he’s created?
*Killing Time* is an explosive, action-packed tale of a man who should be dead, but somehow isn’t. It’s about what happens when you push the reset button on your life, and how the consequences echo through every decision you make. It’s about the cost of breathing, the price of freedom, and the collateral damage of a life half-lived.
The story ends… or does it?
