About this listen

Sam Capra must commit an impossible assassination - or he will lose the only person in the world who matters to him....

Sam Capra has one reason to live: to rescue his baby son from the people who abducted him. An ex-CIA agent, Sam now owns bars around the world as cover for his real mission - working undercover for a secret network as mysterious as it is powerful, while using his skills to find his child.

Now the kidnappers have offered a deadly deal: they'll surrender Sam's child...if Sam finds and murders the one man who can expose them. Teaming up with a desperate young mother whose daughter is also missing, Sam tracks his prey - and his son - across the country in a dangerous race against time, and must unravel a deadly conspiracy if he's to rescue the only person in the world that matters to him.

Great 2nd book in the Sam Capra series. I loved it!!! The action scenes are so explicit, so well written. I can actually picture in my mind everything that I’m reading. The continuance of the story is so smoothly done... it’s like the first book didn’t finish and I just kept on reading. I am in love with Sam Capra and with Kevin Collins for bringing him to life! On to book #3.

LOVED IT!

It is so thrilling that I found myself sitting in my car in the garage, after my long commute, listening to the next chapter! I am not a Jeff Abbott fan.

Fast paced and exciting

This book captured me from page 1right to the end. Kevin T. Collins did an extraordinary job with his narrative, complimenting all the suspense so well described by Jeff Abbott

Grabbing

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I honestly stopped listening to this book about three or four times. The words "I have to get back my son!" started to grate on me during the first couple of chapters. However, I gave it another chance and kept listening. Once I made it over the hump (about an hour or two in) it really picked up and became quite exciting. Mr. Collins, really disappears into each character whether it is Sam (clearly American with no discernible accent) or Milla (a woman from Moldova). I would sometimes forget it was the same person doing both voices.

It was suspenseful at times, witty and funny in odd moments. The story was predictable at times, but there are only a few options of how things can resolve in any thriller, so perhaps "predictability" is always a possibility depending how you are guessing at the next progression of the story. Overall, I am glad I purchased it and powered through some of the earlier moments that just became repetitive and didn't quite gel.

From the middle of the book on, I really did find myself excited about the next time I would be able to sneak some time in to have a listen.




Took a while to get into this one...but worth it.

I don’t usually write a review but thought I would this time. I loved the story but what ruined it for me was the narration. He he a great reader but far too dramatic. There where times where I was ready to stop listening due to the drama. I love the story, the characters but please dial back the drama.

Way too dramatic

Good story and characters. Robotic narration with zero intonation - just really, really bad. Hopefully there's someone else for the next book.

Horrible narration

If you could sum up The Last Minute in three words, what would they be?

Fantastically entertaining listen.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes. The author doesn't let up on the action or suspense.

Which character – as performed by Kevin T. Collins – was your favorite?

Sam Capra. He is Sam Capra.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes.

Any additional comments?

If you want an entertaining good book to listen to, this is it!

Thrill a Minute

AMAZING ADVENTURE

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

hard to follow the dialoque between two people when the narrator gives them the same voice

the narrator wrecks the story

Would you consider the audio edition of The Last Minute to be better than the print version?

Have not read the print. The job I have and the life I lead, I need someone to read to me while I get stuff done. I love love having some one reading to me.

What other book might you compare The Last Minute to and why?

Can not think of any. I don't compare books. I'm such an addict for books. I've listened to other Jeff Abbott books and I love Kevin T's narration. They had me at "this is audible" I love these guys. Jeff gives me what I need in a thriller.

Which scene was your favorite?

I love Mina, she is a gritty lady, just love her. Any scene she's in.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes I did,. The love of family. Sister for sister then father for son. Friend for friend.

Any additional comments?

I will listen to this one a couple more times. There are suddle remarks made that could be missed.

Has been on the wish list, forever,
