About this listen

When the president of the United States is blackmailed into releasing five detainees from Guantanamo Bay, a sadistic assassin with a vendetta years in the making is reactivated. Suddenly, the people closest to counterterrorism operative Scot Harvath are being targeted and he realizes that somehow, somewhere he has left the wrong person alive.

With his life plunged into absolute peril, and the president ordering him to stay out of the investigation, Harvath must mount his own covert plan for revenge - and in so doing will uncover shattering revelations about the organizations and the nation he has spent his life serving.

Take another thrill ride with superagent Scot Harvath.©2007 Brad Thor (P)2011 Simon & Schuster

Another winner.

This was a very exciting story which concluded the cliff hanger from book 5. Can't wait to finish the whole series.

Really great series. Can’t wait for the next book!

This book series has a great cast of characters and keeps you guessing. The overall storylines in the books are intertwined and well written. Harvath is a character to be respected and you hope we have real patriots like him in this world.

Great read

I’ve always wondered if that commandment would ever be disrespected. At first I thought that a member of the first family would be kidnapped but it was the children. Excellent story, it kept me at the edge of my seat as all Brad’s novels do. Excellent!

Better Brad Thor listen

With failing eye sight, the audio is the answer and this book is an easy, pleasurable entertainment. Enjoyed the narration, the pace and better continuity than some of his work. Plot is entertaining while unrealistic . . . but then this is fiction. No regret about downloading this one!

Tons of Twists

Loved it from beginning to end. Without ruining it the main plot is much different than were use to seeing.

The best Brad Thor I've Listened to

I loved the Vince Flynn character Mitch Rapp and waited for each new book. Now that this won't happen again I was amazed with this story because it had a similar flavor. Not a copy cat but a new direction it seemed for Thor. WOW! I got totally wound up in this one and hope it will come again. Scot Harvath had a new dimension for me and I'm just waiting for the next. Of course George Guidall enhanced the story so great combo.
