About this listen

In the post-COVID near future, mysterious explosions cripple Japan's power infrastructure. Tokyo's lights go dark, and bullet trains grind to a halt. Brad Oaks and wife, Amaya Mori, put family plans on hold to answer a call for help from Japan's new prime minister. What power can Japan's first woman prime minister wield - even in her own family? What good can come from a nationwide power outage? Russia, China, and America have high stakes in solutions to these puzzles.

Another Good International Thriller

4.5 out of 5 stars

Blind Trust - noun - a financial arrangement in which a person in public office gives the administration of private business interests to an independent trust in order to prevent conflict of interest. Under the trust, the owner does not know how the assets are managed.

So, knowing that, going into this, I knew that things were going to get dicey. I wasn't sure what to expect with how interesting and twisty-turny Feist's first book, Night Rain, Tokyo was. We have some of the same players here, but they are thrust into a different situation. Along with flashbacks and new scenes that remind them of what they went through in the last story.

Blind Trust was one of those books that felt like it could have been much heavier and it would have lost my attention. I can tell that Feist has a history with a lot of the topics because he's able to go into great detail about something without going overboard. He's able to explain pipelines and what/why they're used in a way that I go "oh, okay" instead of "why do I care". The same goes for the markets and the different business aspects of these stories.  Feist is able to write them in a way that doesn't bog down the story too much, but I understand them enough to know why they were mentioned.

Overall, I thought that Blind Trust was missing some of the thriller aspects that Night Rain, Tokyo had, but it seemed to replace them with deeper looks into our main characters and I'm okay with that trade off. Michael Kramer does a great job narrating this, giving life to this story and allowing me to feel like I was really there with the characters.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
