Resumen del Editor

For years, the former CIA operator had been hiding in plain sight.

Now a kill squad has him in their cross-hairs.

To the townspeople of Blayne, Utah, population 202, Nick Mercer was just a friendly thirty-something woodworker living in a small cabin at the end of a dirt road. But Nick also kept a fully stocked bug-out bag complete with a take-down sniper rifle, assorted passports and a pouch full of uncut diamonds hidden in the wall near his back door along with concealed surveillance cameras spread around his property.

After a document forger is captured by authorities in Indonesia, Mercer’s aliases are eventually leaked to a powerful diamond broker with ties to Mercer’s past with the CIA in West Africa—a man who is willing to stop at nothing to hunt down the former agent.

When a crew of private contractors disguised as FBI agents arrives in Blayne, Mercer discovers his primary escape route along the highway in southeastern Utah is cut off. Now, he must evade on foot through miles of rugged canyons.

With seasoned assassins and a CIA grab team closing in, Nick Mercer must rekindle old survival skills to outrun them…and his past.

For fans of Last of the Breed and Rambo: First Blood

This fast-paced survival-thriller is a stand-alone story that is connected with characters from the Search And Destroy Series.

Decent, but a little abrupt.

I enjoyed the book and it is worth your time if you have enjoyed such books as Last of The Breed. It did feel a little short, but overall well done!

I would have appreciated double the length and more of an in depth storyline with character development along the way, rather than relying on spy-backstabbing-spy as plot twists.

Engaging thriller

This was a very fun read. I’m looking forward to the next book in this very engaging story.

is there an AK 74?

almost immediately the narrator stated an AK 74 was being used. I believe it should be 47. my initial disappointment was soon changed as the story unfolded. Great book looking for others by this author

Your standard spy thriller

Shakespeare said that brevity is the soul of wit, and I think the author applied that lesson here, but I believe that the book could have been just a little better had he not taken it quite as much to heart. The story at a high level is fine; it's a fairly generic thriller. I feel the author could have developed his primary and secondary characters better. It would have been nice to have seen them more fleshed out, and I believe it would have added a little opportunity for readers to connect with the characters.

Unfortunately, I think the narrator was the best part of the whole experience. I believe he did a fine job narrating what he was given.

The book was okay. That said, I'm not sure I'm likely to spend more money on them unless I happen to catch them on sale.
