Chaos

De: Iris Johansen

Narrado por: Elisabeth Rodgers

In this high-stakes thriller, a #1 New York Times bestselling author introduces CIA agent Alisa Flynn, who is willing to go rogue if it means catching the most heartless band of criminals she's ever encountered.

When CIA agent Alisa Flynn flaunts the rules by breaking into a mansion in the middle of the night, she skillfully circumvents alarms and outwits guards only to find herself standing in billionaire Gabe Korgan's study . . . busted by Korgan himself. This could cost her her job unless, in a split second, she can turn the tables and try to convince him to join her on the most important mission of her life.

In a ripped-from-the-headlines plot, schoolgirls in Africa have been kidnapped, and Alisa knows that Korgan has the courage, financial means, and high-tech weaponry to help rescue them. With so many innocent lives hanging in the balance, what she doesn't reveal is that one of those schoolgirls is like a little sister to her. But when the truth gets out, the stakes grow even higher.

Calling in additional assistance from renowned horse whisperer Margaret Douglas, Alisa and Gabe lay their plans, only to see them descend into chaos as the line between right and wrong wavers before them like a mirage. Every path is strewn with pitfalls, each likely to get them—or the hostages—killed. But with the help of a brave team and a horse with the heart of a warrior, they might just get out of this alive.

Chaos review

Author

Iris Johansen is my favorite author. Have read almost all of her books. Lov them

Not For Me

I generally enjoy Johansen's books and love the Eve Duncan series. But the main character of this book, Alisa, was ridiculous. She was way to insecure, indecisive and whiney to be the kick ass CIA agent she was supposed to be. The story seem to drag on forever and I had to force myself to finish. I like the character of Margaret and would have enjoyed more Margaret and Sasha and less Alisa. The narrator is the same as Eve Duncan series and she does the characters the exact same way. I also find the BLAM BLAM BOOM narration for gunshots very tedious. The male characters were typical but well written and performed.

good story

The story is good, the Characters are well drawn. Some of the storyline is a little hard to stomachs but still I enjoyed it.

A good read

started off confusing and not sure when I figured it out but I enjoyed the book. glad I held on!

Terrific Story

I liked this new person Alisa and I like reading stories with Margaret Douglas in them hope to here more of her soon. I also think Alisa would make a good addition.

Interesting

It was a good story to a point. Got a little off track and lost at one point. Otherwise it held my interest. Performance was great

All the parts of a good story

I thought the narrator did a very good job differentiating between characters. Love mystery, romance and horses. I enjoy watching the movie in my head as I listen.
