Publisher's summary

"Never give in."

Ever since he woke up in a terrorist torture chamber - with a year of his life erased from his mind - Charlie West has been on the run. He has one desperate hope of getting his life back: track down the mysterious agent named Waterman. But in fact, reaching Waterman - and recovering the secrets lost in his own memory - will only increase his danger. Because a team of ruthless killers is rapidly closing in on him, determined to stop him from finding the answers. And the truth of the matter is more incredible...and more deadly...than he could ever imagine.

The series gets better and better with each book.

I'm a huge fan of Klavans work. that makes me bias, maybe... that said I love this series of the message and the story is entertaining. I can imagine being Charlie's age and imagining this type of situation. well not this situation, because I'm not a talented writer like Andrew. I am merely a talented audiobook consumer. lol.

Book #3, not #2

Just a cautionary note for listeners wanting to start this series, "The Truth of the Matter" is actually the third book in the "Homelanders" series, not the second as it's listed as.

Book #2 is titled "The Long Way Home" but it isn't available on Audible yet.

Book #1 is titled "The Last Thing I Remember" and IS on Audible.

Great series

I’ve really enjoyed each of Klavan’s books in this series as well as his “When Christmas Comes” series. Other than one thing he continues to misname, and it’s only a few ppl that would notice or care, I thoroughly enjoy his writing.

You won't be sorry

The narrator is awesome. The story unfolds in such a way that you are on the edge of your seat. You'll be so surprised at what happens.

outstanding!!

I loved these books when I found them in High school and I've actually got all 4 paper back editions in my home. I just got the audio to allow me to continue hearing the stories while I work as a busy father.

Great Book, Good Storyline!

I got sucked into these books after listening to book 1 with my son. I just finished book 3 and he is just starting book 2. I have really enjoyed ALL of them.

They have a really wholesome and positive storyline wrapped into the suspense. The narrator is good... highly recommend for teenagers AND adults.

onto the 4th book....
