An IF game for the Adrift System (written with Adrift 4.00 R46)

Game Description
----------------
Some people are happy working in an office, some become taxi cab drivers and some people will even teach. You are none of those; you are a 'lone-wolf gunmen who likes to maintain a low profile' or professional killer.

You are in your mid-40's with all the usual respectable trappings such as a nice house, good job, wife and two children. Considered to be a soft-spoken intellectual, in your spare time you have a passion for reading and your favourite pastime is cultivating shrubs and flowers. 

You have always prided yourself on an ability to get the job done and to give value for money.  In fact you have a very good reputation of getting the job done, no matter how complicated or difficult. Years of military training and discipline have honed the skills needed to execute a hit efficiently and dispassionately. So when the next piece of work comes in you quickly accept, especially when you have seen the fee.

A sheet of paper has just arrived with the target details; one poor soul is about to get taken out.


Useful Commands
---------------
Some useful commands to help you in your mission - 
look on, behind or under an object.
get all from object,  look to redescribe a location,
ask character about object, get object from character
give object to character, get all from object, kill character with object
kill man, kill man with gun, throw knife at tramp
shoot man, shoot man with gun

You can either 'talk to character' or 'ask character about something'. 

If you get stuck just type 'hints' or use the built-in walkthru.
