Description
Sudden Death Overtime chronicles the murderous path of an elite hit man and the avenging pursuit of a Philadelphia newspaper reporter. In 1969, the newsman's assignments take him to tear-gassed anti-war demonstrations, inner-city gang fights, and humorous scoops on local arrests. The story unfolds over three decades, following the newsman as he navigates his personal life amidst his professional pursuits. Alongside his colleagues, including a hippie with a unique approach to life and a paranoid loose cannon, the newsman searches for one-night stands and seeks out stories in bars. As the country transforms around him, the hit man's pursuit finally comes to an end in 1999. This fast-paced narrative combines elements of mystery, humor, and sexuality, drawing readers into its gripping world with richly drawn characters.
