Assassins Anonymous

De: Rob Hart

Narrado por: Neill Thorne

“The best kind of thriller. . . . Suspenseful, sentimental, and ultimately redemptive, Assassins Anonymous is a can’t-miss novel.”—S. A. Cosby, author of All the Sinners Bleed

In this clever, surprising, thriller, the world’s most lethal assassin gives up the violent life only to find himself under siege by mysterious assailants. It’s a kill-or-be-killed situation, but the first option is off the table. What’s a reformed hit man to do?

Mark was the most dangerous killer-for-hire in the world. But after learning the hard way that his life’s work made him more monster than man, he left all of that behind, and joined a twelve-step group for reformed killers.

When Mark is viciously attacked by an unknown assailant, he is forced on the run. From New York to Singapore to London, he chases after clues while dodging attacks and trying to solve the puzzle of who’s after him. All without killing anyone. Or getting killed himself. For an assassin, Mark learns, nonviolence is a real hassle.

Reseñas de la Crítica

A firstCLUE Book of the Week

“Absolutely wonderful! From concept to execution (so to speak!) Assassins Anonymous sets the standard for smart, compelling, nonstop crime fiction—all told in the resonant voice of a natural born storyteller. I read Hart’s book in one sitting and I am positive you will too. Bravo!”—Jeffery Deaver, author of Hunting Time

“Rob Hart’s Assassins Anonymous isn’t just a great, brutal, action-packed hitman story—it’s a simmering character study that digs deep into what it’s like to struggle with addiction. Few books can balance being a thrilling page-turner and heartfelt personal saga, but Hart makes it look easy.”—Alex Segura, author of Secret Identity

“Hart’s latest wears its myriad cinematic influences on its sleeve. Escalating stakes and precisely choreographed action sequences keep the pages turning… Bombastic whiz-bang fun.”—Kirkus Reviews

Fun and memorable characters

Liked the concept, good balance of inner demons and fun dialogue. Faithful and irreverent at the same time.

Unexpectedly delightful

I would call this a thriller with a healthy dose of wry humor.

I knew virtually nothing about this book when I started it and immediately was captivated. I couldn’t stop listening.

Great story!! Twists and turns! If you love international crime/spies stories then you should read this book

Funny, fast-paced! Definitely a sit in the driveway book! A fun adventure around the world, figuring out who has double (triple?) crossed whom. If you love a swashbuckling hero who is human at the core, you will enjoy this story. Can’t wait to read book 2!

good story, wasn't a fan of the narrator

the story was good but the tense and anxious narrator is not needed to tell the story.

A good story

a difference in the way of telling. The story fit the setting and mood on the reflection of things past.

the readers voice

it was a good book. maybe a sequel would be ok. I'd listen to it

There is humanity in all of us.

Jason Statham? lol And olives really do belong on pizza! Seriously, I found this book really engaging and quite a fun read.

Awful narration

The narrator was overly dramatic. Sounded like a bad radio dj. Story was moderately fun.

AMAZING 👍🏽

Story was pretty good. Performance was good but when there was action it wasn’t fast. But when he was the pale horse. He sold it to the fullest.

That people actually make a living with these bizarre assignations.

Started not to purchase as killing for killings sake just isn’t my normal cup of tea! But it was an ok plot in the end.
