About this listen

Long Way Home is an action-packed new thriller from bestselling author J. B. Turner and the follow-up to the electric No Way Back.

When Jack McNeal threw Henry Graff’s body in the reservoir, he thought he had closed the book on Graff and his nefarious associates. But when Graff’s body is exhumed from the water, McNeal’s troubles really begin. Plagued by flashbacks and nightmares from his murderous past and unable to move on from the tragic deaths of his wife and young son, McNeal is on the verge of a breakdown.

On the hunt for the mysterious “Woodcutter,” the man at the center of this whole conspiracy, McNeal uncovers a web of political intrigue that goes all the way to the White House. But the conspirators don’t want McNeal digging.

As he and his family are targeted by the same shadowy security consultancy that was responsible for his wife’s death, McNeal will stop at nothing to bring those responsible to justice, even if that means becoming the bad guy he swore he would never be.

Flat and slow (compared to the first part)

It seems like Jack McNeil has changed a LOT since the first book. Nothing really happens, everyone is after him, nobody believes him, stuff like that. Somehow he remembers he has a lot of money, starts giving it away, but he already lost his whole family.

P.S. What happened with Peter? Nobody believes he killed himself, but neither does the "operator" talk about him. This was kinda a hole in the story for me :/

Intense World-Building

Excellent narration of this story about murders, revenge, harassment and strange/strained partnerships. Intense world-building but I enjoyed it! Feels like an ending with possibilities of a whole new beginning.

Good second part to the series

The book continues almost exactly from where the first one left off; more of a continuation of the story than a second book with the same characters.

The narration is excellent. The author's choices in this story just left me sad. It's not that it's poorly written, I just didn't get a sense of redemption. If a third in the series is written, I'll read it though.

Emotionally Charged

I enjoyed this J.B.Turner 2nd book in this series. My heart went out to McNeil’s painful losses and could understand the desire for vengeance. It was clear that eliminating these people did not take away his grief. Neither did it satisfy his desire for retribution. Very well done and a great narrator.

I'm Conflicted

I like the Jack McNeal character. But while I understand why he's made the choices he has, I'm still conflicted about them. In this particular novel, book 2 in the series, he's facing severe consequences for his bold moves.

This series is very well written, with rich, genuine characterizations and a break-neck pace. It's also a bit unique because of who Jack is (an officer of the NYPD Internal Affairs division), and because of the actions he takes. Even with my conflicted attitude, I'm still thoroughly involved in Jack's dilemma. I'm in this to the finish and hoping for the best for Jack.

Fans of thrillers, suspense, LEO reads, political thrillers, and even spy craft stories will enjoy this series. While this book could stand on its own, I recommend starting with the first book to truly understand who and what Jack McNeal is.

Setting up a new series

There was too much philosophy and forced story line. In the end I can see the setup for a new series. I like the characters and will try the next book.
