About this listen

When ex-Navy SEAL Nick Foley travels to China to find purpose and escape the demons of his past, he instead stumbles into a conspiracy his Special Forces training never prepared him for. A mysterious and deadly outbreak ravages a remote area of western China, and Nick finds himself the lead suspect in a bioterrorism investigation being conducted by China's elite Snow Leopard counter-terrorism unit.

To clear his name and avoid prosecution, he must team up with beautiful Chinese CDC microbiologist Dr. Dazhong "Dash" Chen to find who is really behind the attack. As their investigation proceeds, their budding friendship is tested by nationalistic loyalties and suspicion.

In a race against time, Nick and Dash must risk everything to stop a mad man before he unleashes the world's next super-weapon in Beijing.

Suspense thriller or contempory science fiction?

Beijing Red kept me interested if barely so. The Nick Foley (and Dash) series has potential, but it was not fully realized in this novel. Oh, its good novel but it could be better.

The novel is set in western China where ex-Navy Seal Nick Foley is working for an NGO that is seeking to help improve the lives poor Uyghurs. An outbreak of a 100% fatal "disease" occurs and is likely a terrorist act. The actual nature of the "disease" is what leads me to classify the novel as contemporary science fiction.

There is lots of action and suspense in Beijing Red. Actor McLeod Andrews does a fine job of narration.

Interesting timing...

...a nanotech weapon, we'll see if this doesn't come true, implementation via jab, not aerosol.

Loved this story

Great main character and I loved MacLeod Andrews’ narration. Very expressive. In fact that’s how I found this series, I had listened to another few audiobooks he did. He’s top notch. The story really kept me going.

Great book with real shockers and suspense

Okay this book was great! The narrator or narrators were great too. It really felt like I was listening to different characters and not just someone trying to create a new voice. This book has layers and shockers. It kept you engaged and listening. I found myself talking to the characters. Like what? It was him? Or Dash please don’t say.. what??? It was that engaging. For those who don’t like curse words…The cursing is to a minimal too. Present at appropriate moments but not overwhelming. I had to stop listening to another book because the cursing was overwhelming.
