Subjects: Selmier, Dean --Criminals --United States --Biography. Summary: To put it simply, this is the autobiography of a professional killer who has decided to go public. It may be the first book of its kind ever written. "Dean Selmier" is not a pseudonym. He is a stage and screen actor but , basically, he kills for a living. Selmier got in very serious trouble while serving in the armed forces. He was offered the chance to get out of a long hitch in prison if he was willing to take on a lethal assignment. As a cover, he became an actor; he knew, though, that his real assignment was to be very much offstage. He is no Jackal (he's a lousy shot) ; he kills up close. He's well paid. This is his strange, unvarnished, and true story. When asked what he feels at the critical moment, Selmier replies, "Nothing". The reader will feel otherwise. Item #155550
