About this listen
FROM FORMER GREEN BERET AND USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR JASON KASPER
For David Rivers and his team, the mission was supposed to be simple—retrieve a defecting militia leader and deliver him to CIA interrogators.
But nothing is simple in Yemen, where vast swaths of terrain are controlled by Houthi and Al Qaeda fighters. When they locate the asset, the team discovers why he has been deemed critical to their intelligence effort.
The defector has direct knowledge of the team’s top target: Erik Weisz, the shadowy figurehead behind the most catastrophic terrorist attacks since 9/11. And as it turns out, Weisz is currently in Yemen, traveling through Houthi territory with heavy security.
As David’s crew prepares for a follow-on operation to remove Weisz once and for all, they discover a web of contradictions. A sudden order to stand down leaves the unit questioning the motives of their CIA handler. With suspicious leadership and a deadly conspiracy looming, the team boards a military aircraft to infiltrate the most dangerous corners of a war-torn desert. David is convinced it will be their bloodiest mission yet—and within hours of being inserted deep into the badlands of Yemen, he and his team realize they are pawns in an exceedingly deadly game of chess.

Please don't start this series
- By Arresting1 on 02-21-25
By: Logan Ryles
However, The American Mercenary series is far superior to this one - it’s actually more of a fantasy series disguised as a.. whatever you call this stuff.
I really wish Rivers would have become the handler. The potential there is enormous.
Instead, he’s a lap dog for the CIA, running meaningless missions for nags who treat his team highly disrespectfully.
Trying to imagine killers permitting any level of disrespect, or micromanaging is.. impossible really. There would not be a second time.
This series, while interesting, is boring, and far more naive (propagandistic) than the American Mercenary series. The whole “terrorism” thing is for children.
Rivers as the handler, instead of a dog for the CIA. If that were the case, the CIA would be answering to him, one way or the other.
As the handler, he could still kill bad guys all the time. Much more effectively. With more guys. No rules. More money. I mean, why is he not the handler?
Plus, you could have the development of Langley into her full potential as the inheritor..
Rivers literally nuked a criminal syndicate in the last series. Now he’s being nagged and henpecked by bureaucrats.
I really miss the potential thrown away after the Mercenary series. Now it’s just the same mindless CIA nonsense.
That said, I still find the stories entertaining. If also maddening. Having your boss stalk you to a grocery store to meet you without your permission is another thing that should not end well for them.
I actually miss the original handler too. Loved that guy. You can at least respect a boss like that guy..

While this book is not a stand alone book, I think that the series itself is at a point where someone new could drop in and not be too lost with the things that are going on. With that being said, what makes this series so captivating and intriguing are the relationships that have developed over the last 6 books. Relationships between David and his team, between the CIA and its contractors (specifically those in charge of Project Longwing) and in this book, we are introduced to a new element when there is a surprise group thrown in to the mix.
This series revolves around a team of 5 men. Ex-Military men who have been in combat in some form or another for most of their lives. Men who have gone through the ringer together and who have had to depend on each other continually to survive. Mr. Kasper talks a lot about the "warrior caste" and how that defines David's psyche and his sense of self. This book actually goes into much more detail about this than before and we get more insight into each member of the team and how they have been affected by the situations they have been thrown into during the last few years. The team has had to learn to survive not only when they are on missions, but together, they've had to navigate an employer who seems to think they are disposable. Not a great situation to be in.
The plot of this book continues the over arching storyline from the last several books as the team is continuing the search for the HVT - terrorist Erik Weisz. This time, the trail leads to Yemen. Personally, I found that whole setting extremely interesting as Mr. Kasper does a really good job of describing the political atmosphere of Yemen and I can honestly say that I had no idea how extremely complicated that entire country is. That doesn't even take into account the descriptions of the Houthi's - a terrorist organization that has been in the news recently with all of the attacks on the US that have been occurring in that part of the Middle East. So, the mission setting was extremely dangerous, BEFORE things got complicated.
Without going into spoilers, I'll just say that the team finds themselves in quite a mess, without necessarily having any reliable back up. The action starts from the very beginning of the book and does not let up until the very last page. Everything that I have liked about this series seemed to be taken up a level. Mr. Kasper's expertise in this genre, the realism of the storyline, the amazing constant development of the characters, and the real life dilemma of doing the "right thing" when WHAT the right thing is....is debatable. There was action, drama, suspense, intrigue and ultimately.....betrayal. It felt like the team had gotten to a breaking point, yet you just knew that the strength of their bonds were what was going to get them through an almost unsurvivable situation.
So, definitely another winner. This storyline may have reached somewhat of a conclusion, but at the same time it feels like it also may have just opened up a can of worms, or as David says, "it was like stepping on a pregnant spider". The next book or two is going to get very interesting and I am looking forward to seeing where things go from here.
Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC. The opinions above are mine and mine alone.
Another Winner!
