Resumen del Editor

She does Britain's dirty work, but this time she needs help. Beatrix Rose, meet John Milton....

Beatrix Rose has a knack for making the British government's problems go away. When the assassin is sent to Venezuela to track down a missing scientist, she meets a contact who knows the lay of the land: none other than John Milton.

As the state-sanctioned assassin and the special forces soldier team up in South America, they'll do more than capture a missing scientist. They'll discover a secret that will change Beatrix's life forever....

Phoenix is a short story that unites two landmark thriller characters in a single tale. If you like ruthless assassins, fast-moving plots and Jack Reacher-style action, then you'll love USA Today best-selling author Mark Dawson's latest short.

Predictable but good

This is a really good short story. Lots of action, excellent characters and a great narrator. Love these little diamonds in the rough.

Fully Fleshed Out Story Preferred

Though the narrator was very good, the story itself was too short and left too many questions unanswered. I'd read the mixed reviews on Dawson's characters so I've been slow to really get into his writing. I think this is the second novella...first one was about Milton. I like that there's lots of action and a strong female lead with a heart. However, the choice to give no "real" details about whether "Phoenix" is a what or a who has the feel of a serial comic book or TV series. The saying "always leave them wanting" seems to be the author's Rule of Thumb, yet because these are rightfully compared to a Jack Reacher style character, it's truly not necessary. Fully fleshing out the story would actually benefit this particular concept. People like me will continue to read because we like the characters. I think I'll wait until I can get the entire series for 1 credit. Now that would be exciting!

great story. An entertaining and enjoyable novella

most enjoyable , only wish was longer. But a great story front start to finish.

Phoenix

I just didn't get into this story . .I believe it had a lot to do with the narration. the problem was it was so bland.

Interesting plot with action and surprise but felt the end lacked the info that gives a mission to the plot.

In the end what was the research about Why was the scientist picked up. Was the child a product of the research ?

Great short story

“Phoenix” by Mark Dawson features a British sanctioned assassin who quietly makes political problems go away. I do love a female assassin story!

Beatrix Rose is sent to Venezuela to find a missing scientist. There, she partners with another assassin, John Milton.

Short story even shorter, in her search for the missing scientists, she finds a secret that will alter Beatrix’s life.

This is a fast-moving story, only 2 hours. It’s perfect for a long drive. I listened to the audible production narrated by Jane Slavin.

Good Origin Story

This was a pretty good story that ends up explaining something key in the Beatrix Rose series. The only problem I had was at times during conversations between Beatrix and others, it was difficult to distinguish who was who (meaning I was unsure who was speaking). Overall, a very solid story and effort by Dawson and Slavin.

Outstanding

So well done wish it was a full book. Good story, excellent narration. More please

Good story

Narrator sometimes hard to hear otherwise good. I always think these stories are too short !

Interesting but too short!

The author spent some well spent time on character development. A little slow in the beginning because of it, but it gave you insight into the lives of the characters. The escape from the armory had great action! Very well written.
