Publisher's summary

"Atmospheric and taut, A Dangerous Breed is a winner." (Allison Brennan, New York Times best-selling author)

Van Shaw’s past and present collide when an ingenious blackmailer pushes him to the brink in this electrifying fifth novel in Glen Erik Hamilton’s gritty and emotionally powerful thriller series.

An invitation addressed to his long-dead mother sparks Van Shaw’s curiosity about the woman he barely knew. As he digs into young Moira Shaw's past, he uncovers startling details about her life, including her relationship to a boy named Sean Burke - a boy Moira may have been seeing when she became pregnant. Could this Burke be the biological father who abandoned Van before he was born? Although Van knows all too well that some doors shouldn’t be opened, he decides to investigate the man - only to discover that Burke has an even darker family history than Van's own.

But Van’s got more immediate problems. His friend Hollis is in a jam, and helping him out accidentally steers Van into the path of a master extortionist named Bilal Nath. Nath demands that the talented thief mastermind a daring heist targeting a Seattle biotechnology firm, or the blackmailer will destroy the lives of people Van loves. Will Van be forced to steal a viral weapon with the potential to kill thousands?

With Bilal Nath coercing him into a possible act of domestic terrorism, Van turns to his formidable crew of lawbreaking friends - including Hollis, Big Will Willard, and Willard's sly and seductive niece Elana - for help. Yet even this team may not be enough. To outwit a brilliant sociopath, Van might just need a cold-blooded killer...a criminal whose blood may run through his own veins.

Great story, but bring back R. C. Bray

This entry in the series was great, just like all the others. Everything keeps you hooked, the characters, the settings, and the story. The only thing that kept it from being a 5* Book was the narration. Stephen Mendel was OK, but he does not draw you in like R. C. Bray. The author really needs to bring him back for the next book.

Good but....

I've listened to them all, until this one. It's just not the same 😞 When listening to books, versus reading them, you get to know the characters in a different way. To have a character you've come to know from Ireland speaking in *this* book without the accent he'd spoken with previously makes this like an entirety different book. It was like "who's Hollis??" It made it not familiar, not comfortable & those are strong reasons to continue coming back. Let me know when you re-record with the original narrator, I'll finish the rest of the book. (djl919)

I definitely missed our regular narrator

The story was excellent as usual, however I sure do miss our narrator R C Bray. Why the change.

I miss the Irish accent

The story is good but the narrator lacks the storytelling to make it great.

the story was good. The narration was not so good.

after listening to the previous three other books I was very disappointed that they had a different person reading the story. I was disappointed in that they did not do the actions for any of the Irish characters especially.
