About this listen

Mr. & Mrs. Smith meets political thriller in this heart-pounding series debut about two undercover flames whose new mission risks exposing their true identities to the world…and, worse, each other.

Caspian Anderson is a translator for the United Nations—or so he’s led everyone to believe. No one suspects that mild-mannered Caspian, with his baggy clothes and sensible car, is actually an elite assassin for the US government. And that’s just how he wants it.

For ten years, Caspian has worked under the code name Elias for Onyx, a black program deep within the Department of Homeland Security. His latest mission takes him to Switzerland to kill a target tied to a human trafficking ring. There, Caspian stumbles onto a web of conspiracies involving high-level political figures.

Meanwhile, Caspian’s girlfriend is starting to pull away, and he wonders whether she may have secrets of her own. The truth is, Liesel Bergmann’s a spy. But neither knows the truth about the other…yet. As their covert operations converge, trust becomes paramount. Can they work together to bring down the enemy with their lives—and hearts—still intact?

A BREATH OF FRESH AIR TO THE GENRE

Simon is a wonderful writer. I have enjoyed his work for a long time now. This entry into a new series breathes new life into the thriller genre! The plot twists are refreshing and not predictable, as so many of our favorites in the genre have become after the last two decades. Caspian is young, energetic, lethally talented, and with this entry he promises to be around for years to come. Simon, I anxiously await July 8th...

I Really Liked the Two Mai. Characters

I liked the unassuming facade of Casper. His craftiness and his penchant to be able to blend. An assassin with a heart.

Good Spy Thriller

The narrator was very good and kept my interest going. However, the twists and turns with all of the alternate spy names for the characters really taxed me. I had to go to the Kindle version of the book to gain a full comprehension of the storyline.

Twists and turns everywhere

Narrator did a great job with accents, and the pacing of dialogue was very satisfying. The storyline was all kinds of gross and interesting entertainment. Elias was very likable.

Ludicrous story

A bunch of cartoon characters shooting each other in Europe and the US. With lengthy interludes for them to show off their martial arts skills.

None of the characters are interesting and nothing in the plot is either.
