Animal lover, stamp collector, consummate pro, he dispatches his victims--an overpaid baseball player, a nosy therapist, a troublesome housewife--with a cool efficiency they would appreciate if they weren't already dead. Block has more than 50 books under his belt, but none are more endearing--or subversive--than his Keller novels. In a world gone mad, the hit man with a heart of gold may be the only one who still knows right from wrong. You find yourself thinking, "So he kills people. Is that...

The only way to attain objectivity in foreign policy is to eliminate the oil factor. Americans need to make huge lifestyle changes (sell - or junk - the Hummer, and tighten your belt) while we develop oil alternatives. Otherwise, we will have only ourselves to blame for the huge number of young lives that will be sacrificed in the name of a killer oil habit we couldn't break.
