520 $aAll Bob Dillon ever really wanted was a truck of his own with a fiberglass bug on top. He's a down-on-his luck exterminator from Queens who just can't seem to get a break. After losing his job as a pest control expert, he pursues his longtime dream of owning an environmentally friendly service. The flier for his new business reads: Professional Exterminator - Bonded! Fifteen Years Field Experience! Gone Private With Lethal New Concept! No Pest Left Alive!.
520 8 $aMeanwhile, Marcel in Paris is desperately in need of an assassin for a million dollar hit. When one of Bob's fliers falls into his hands, he thinks he's found his man. He approaches Bob, who unknowingly accepts, and what happens next is a hysterical comedy of errors. Soon all the greatest international assassins are in pursuit of Bob, their mysterious new competitor.
520 8 $aNow Bob is running for his life through the wormiest sections of the Big Apple - one step ahead of a Bolivian terminator, a killer cowboy, meat-headed CIA agents, a homicidal transvestite dwarf, cabbies packing serious heat...and the world's best assassin, a soft-hearted executioner named Klaus, who may just turn out to be the best friend he's got.
