I enjoyed this action packed adventure

This turns into an amazing ear-catching story. I read the synopsis and was intrigued. Then once I started I kept waiting and waiting I was thinking I missed something. I wasn’t it’s just there is a long lead up to what the synopsis is talking about. I got very involved in their lives and dealing with the politic of their job in the meantime. After “the incident” it becomes very fast paced and a lot of action as I watch these characters vie for their lives.

Overall I enjoyed the story immensely and the characters are really lively. I did listen to this on audio. Bill Burrows did a good job with the voices. In Chapter 10 it seemed multiple lines were repeated.

fast paced with lots of action

I went into this book with an open mind...and so glad that I did! While the first chapter was a bit slow (yes, it was laying the groundwork), it soon took off. Geologist Frank Smiley works for Bayside Oil Company, most specifically, assigned to the offshore drilling rigs. His most recent invention will pair well with his former colleague and friend, university professor, Scott Ross. Ross's invention can accurately predict earthquakes. As a matter of fact, Ross predicted an earthquake that destroyed a new housing development that incurred fatalities. Now someone has framed Ross for murder and wants to silence both Ross and Smiley. Will Frank Smiley be able to get to the bottom of the attempts on his life and expose high level corruption?
Very engaging story that is well written, with perfectly paired narration. I look forward to more from this new-to-me author and narrator duo.
I accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Liked it a lot

Fast paced, depth to the key characters, some elements of whodunnit, and with a few modern life messages. An interesting story line combined with a good fit narrator made this a great listen.

A great thriller

This story was a lot of fun. It had lots of twist and turns throughout. I enjoyed the buildup and the story. The action throughout was fun as well. I would recommend this book.

Story and narration great.

FYI, I enjoyed the story, but the recording was occasionally popping and cracking. There were was one point where it was hung up and kept repeating it's self. I know it was not my device as I had listen to recordings before and after without a problem.
However, the story was fascinating and hope there is a follow up. The narrator was a perfect choice for the book.

New Author

Hidden Faults
: Jon M. Decker Sr

This is a thriller/ suspense that pits science and politics against each other. The listener will have to try and guess who are the good guys and the bad guys. This

was an enjoyable listen.

The narration was well done. The characters were well portrayed. Bill Burrows gave a good performance.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Fascinating Premise

Excellent story for first time author Jon M. Decker Sr. He had to do tons of research, especially regarding Frank and his knowledge of geology. Before I forget another reviewer also mentioned this, in chapter 10 and again in chapter 12, several times statements were repeated, maybe the editors can update future books and fix that little annoying problem, I don't know how hard that would be, but don't let this small problem deter you from getting this most excellent story. The characters were very believable and the storyline flowed very nicely, and there was just the right amount of humor in this story,,,I would recommend this story to everybody. The narrating done by Bill Burrows was spot on, I received this audiobook in a promo and this is my honest unbiased review.
