About this listen
Special Agent Adam Locke quits DEA and joins his brother's artificial intelligence company so he can care for his dying girlfriend, but when his brother is killed in a suspicious accident, Adam discovers life-saving technology can be also deadly.
Being a special agent meant everything to Adam, but when his girlfriend is diagnosed with cancer, he resigns to be closer to home. He takes a job at his brother's AI start-up and works for an eccentric billionaire on Cuttyhunk Island, a tiny community near Cape Cod.
Forever Technology promises artificial intelligence will extend life, but after a scientist falls off a cliff and Adam's brother dies in an explosion, Adam believes someone is killing to protect the priceless innovation.
The clock is ticking as Adam fights to use the technology to save his girlfriend and to prove his brother was murdered before the killer can escape with the world's most valuable scientific discovery.
The Forever Game examines the philosophical issues that arise when artificial intelligence can cure disease, download minds, and offer eternal life. It explores the nature of consciousness and what it means to be human.

Colonel David Gath is an aging astronaut on his last expedition to the International Space Station. He was no one’s first choice; he was a replacement of a replacement.

Story
We live in a world where identity often feels like a performance, where the pressure to conform and meet expectations can strip us of our true selves. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been caught in that web, feeling the weight of what society wanted me to be. I had the career, the success, the outward image of someone who had it all together. But deep down, I knew something was missing. I was living a life built on what others thought I should be, instead of who I really was.

Critic reviews
"The Forever Game by Jeffrey James Higgins is a tautly-plotted thriller bursting with both action and depth. Higgins himself has 'been there and done that,' and this experience reveals itself on every page. I’ve no doubt readers will be hungry for more adventures from Adam Locke." –Mark Greaney #1 NYT Bestselling Author of THE CHAOS AGENT, a GRAY MAN NOVEL

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent.

Had Me OnTh Edge MOST of the Time!
Action-packed story told by an awesome voice actor who didn't "read" the story, he "TOLD" the story.
The story was really good! It was action packed and will make you really think. I thoroughly enjoyed this audio book!

Fun, intriguing, suspenseful. Excellent narration
This is my first listen of this genre of book and honestly it got me hooked. Loved listening to this book and the variety of acting, voices etc made it clear to tell who was speaking, along with making it feel like you were there in each scene. All the way to feeling emotion of characters. Making you love, dispise and even feel sad at times. I really enjoyed this listen and highly recommend this to anyone interested in the genre or even thinking of trying something new like me!
