Publisher's summary

In order to save the country he loves, Dylan Kane must first betray it.

Three top secret research scientists are presumed dead in a boating accident, but the kidnapping of their families the same day raises questions the FBI and local police can't answer, leaving them waiting for a ransom demand that will never come.

Central Intelligence Agency analyst Chris Leroux stumbles upon the story, and finds a phone conversation that was never supposed to happen. When he reports it to his boss, the national clandestine services chief, he is uncharacteristically reprimanded for conducting an unauthorized investigation and told to leave it to the FBI.

But he can't let it go.

For he knows something the FBI doesn't.

One of the scientists is alive.

Leroux makes a call to his childhood friend, CIA Special Agent Dylan Kane, leading to a race across the globe to stop a conspiracy reaching the highest levels of political and corporate America, that if not stopped, could lead to war with an enemy armed with a weapon far worse than anything in the American arsenal, with the potential to not only destroy the world, but consume it.

Total entertainment

I have a audible library of 600+titles and finished 98% of them. By chance this is the first book I have read by this author and I rate it in the top 5 ever for overall entertainment and the presentation was excellent. i rarely rate books because I am hearing impaired and my view of a book is often skewed by tone and clarity of the presenter but this book, author and presenter has everything

Excellent Spy and Suspense Novel!

This was my first from this author (came across it in the Audible Plus section) and I could tell within the first 10 minutes they really enjoyed his writing style. He was descriptive without being overly wordy. The character buildup and storyline were both on point, and there were lots of suspenseful moments throughout. I also appreciated that there was a lot of action packed moments without throwing in curse words, which was refreshing.

The narrator was excellent as well. He utilized several different accents flawlessly, which definitely helped to keep me engrossed in the storyline. His pacing was perfect.

Overall 10/10, and I’m excited to go and find more books by this author right away!
