About this listen
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Break Line by James Brabazon, read by Jason O'Mara.
'BREATHLESS, COMPLEX AND SERIOUSLY HARDCORE' LEE CHILD
Officially Max McLean doesn't exist.
Sniper. Spy. Assassin. His job is top secret, deadly... and often Max is the only thing keeping his country safe.
Fortunately, he's bloody good at it.
But Max is growing tired of unquestioned loyalty to his political masters. And when his latest job takes him deep into West African jungle, where a remote village has been quarantined after a sinister virus takes hold, it's time for answers.
As the mission darkens further than he ever thought possible, Max faces a perilous, breath-taking quest for the truth, that will call into question everything that he once believed in, and leave the fate of humanity itself in his hands . . .
The Break Line drips with authenticity, menace and first-hand knowledge of the frontline. Smart and packed with jaw-dropping plot twists, this is a thriller like no other.
_______________

Story
When it comes to killing terrorists, British intelligence has always had one man they could rely on: Max McLean. As an assassin, he's never missed, but Max has made one miscalculation, and now, he has to pay the price. His handlers send him to Sierra Leone on a seemingly one-way mission. What he finds is a horror from beyond his nightmares. Rebel forces are loose in the jungle, and someone or something is slaughtering innocent villagers. It's his job to root out the monster behind these abominations, but he soon discovers he may be the most disposable piece in this operation.

It’s not all bad, though. Perry McGown makes his living off those bloody, stinking battlefields. He works on a crew that reclaims all the spent shell casings. But if anyone found out that he was a deserter from the war, he’d be executed for heresy.
