Eye contact across a room.
A big mistake.
An amateur’s mistake.
A blown operation and the consequences that went with it.

As an amateur … he was on his own with a family to protect. The family he’d been trying to protect all along. And now he’d blown it. He stood frozen and terrified as the target identified him. The man who would kill him and his family without a second thought.
An amateur’s mistake.
