Attorney Ben Corbin travels to Norway to settle a dispute between Karl and Gunnar Bjornsen, feuding brothers on the verge of developing a revolutionary neural stimulant that could turn first responders into superheroes. But more than just the fate of their pharmaceutical empire is at stake.

What starts as a sibling rivalry takes a deadly turn as Gunnar flees with the secret formula and Karl finds himself in the crosshairs of a bribery investigation. As Ben navigates a web of intrigue involving the Russian mob, embezzled funds, and black-market deals, he and his legal team are targeted for violent reprisals. Whoever is behind the attacks, it quickly becomes clear that no one and nothing - including the miracle drug itself - is as it seems.

Will lust for profit and unbridled ambition drive Cain to slay Abel - or will the intrepid lawyer trying to save them from destroying each other pay the ultimate price?

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed both books. The narrator does a fabulous job, especially considering all of the languages!

Great book

Wonderful story line with great plot twists. A good Christian based book doesn’t have to be dull and this one is definitely not.

Very intricate movement between characters

Wonderful book! It is a stand alone novel, but the characters were introduced in the previous book. Certain elements carried over so reading or listening to the previous story would help understanding this one, especially with Sergei and Elana’s story.

I loved hearing a bit about the Norwegian sagas and Norway. The reader did not distinguish much between the accents, however, so this one was not as well preformed as the last, but it was still a very good listen.

The book is about addictions to substances, work, and approval. Acker examines the psychology of this not in too much depth, but the pathology is definitely there. The characters are challenged to look at their motivations for doing the things they do, the habits they have formed, the groves they have dug for themselves which make it hard to change direction.

The book is also about two brothers at war with each other. Forgiveness is a central theme, not just between the brother, but the theme is also central to the characters as a whole. Adoptive parents must forgive and love troubled teens. Husband and wife must speak and hear truth from each other without becoming resentful. Elana must receive forgiveness and forgive herself. This a a well-crafted story with various layers.

The plot is exciting with a few twists that I did not see coming. The writing is engaging and intelligent. Faith is discussed in terms of reality, in light of how people actually behave, not just what they quote.

Both men and women will enjoy the work, especially fans of Crichton, Patterson and the like. 4.6 stars

This is Book 2 of the Dead Man's Rule series. I plan to listen to Novel 1 soon. This novel is about the legal fight between two Norwegian brothers over control of a pharmaceutical company they built together. Christopher Lane's narration is superb. Some listeners may object to the religious content of this novel, but it is certainly not overwhelming. Highly recommended!!

Incredibly fascinating legal thriller!

Great read!

I loved this book. It made a wonderful two week stay at Lake Tahoe even more fun because I could enjoy this book too, just the kind of book I love best. We get to see Big Pharma at work, the huge problems with FDA drug reviews, corporate false accounting, biotech advances that also threaten, and some great litigation scenes, all in one book. The plot is enhanced with lore and myth from Norway. Through it all, and what I think I loved best, you have characters who understand what love and family are, and who choose those values in extremely difficult circumstances, and when most people would falter. Great book.

Christopher Lane was outstanding with the delivery of the story

Great Addition To The Series

The story was just "ok" for me. It was a very very slow ramp up to a very "yeah ok" ending for me. Only a few "high points" of interest for me in the story, but mostly it felt kind of "plodding along" until the end which was just a bit "too long of a trip".

The narration wasn't bad but I had difficultly differentiating all the characters at times. He's really good at the accents, but the voices were very close in character to me.

I know this got lots of great reviews and it was good enough to stick with until the end. It just didn't live up to my expectations.

Who was who now?
