Waking with enemies [paper] / Eric Jerome Dickey. Waking with enemies. New York : New American Library, 2008. 394 p. ; 21 cm. Originally published: New York : Dutton, c2007. Gideon, a career hit man, is in London, where another assassin, a mysterious man with a broken nose, is hot on his trail. Gideon's most recent target was a rapper, Big Bad Wolf. The rival rapper who hired Gideon for the hit, Sledge, was recently assassinated, and Gideon assumes he is the latest target. The nonstop narrative follows Gideon as he evades the assassin, searches for the truth about his hooker mother, continues his involvement with tough girl Arizona (who wants Gideon to kill her older sister), tries to figure out who ordered the hit on him and finds time for some explicitly chronicled fantasy sex.
