The Breaker

De: Nick Petrie

Narrado por: Stephen Mendel

"Nonstop action at a machine gun pace. If you aren't reading Nick Petrie, now is the time to start."--C.J. Box

Peter Ash tangles with dangerous enemies and terrifying technology in the newest thriller from bestselling author Nick Petrie.

A man wanted by two governments, Peter Ash has found a simple, low-profile life in Milwaukee, living with his girlfriend June and renovating old buildings with his friend Lewis. Staying out of trouble is the key to preserving this fragile peace . . . but when Peter spots a suspicious armed man walking into a crowded market, he knows he can't stand by and do nothing.

Peter does interrupt a crime, but it wasn't at all what he'd expected. The young gunman appeared to have one target and one mission--but when he escapes, and his victim vanishes before police arrive, it seems there is more to the encounter than meets the eye. Peter's hunch is proven correct when a powerful associate from his past appears with an interest in the crime, and an irresistible offer: if he and June solve this mystery, Peter's record will be scrubbed clean.

While Peter and Lewis trace the gunman, reporter June digs into the victim of the incident, a man whose face rings a bell in her memory. As their parallel investigations draw together, they're thrust into the path of a ruthless tech thief, an eerily cheerful assassin, a brilliant and troubled inventor, and a revolutionary technology that could wreak devastation in the wrong hands. But for Peter, even more is at stake: this investigation is his only path to a life free from the threat of prosecution or prison. Before the end, he'll have to fight harder than ever before to ensure that freedom doesn't come at too high a cost. . . .

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Nonstop action at a machine gun pace.”—C.J. Box

"Another outstanding offering in the celebrated Peter Ash series, with Nick Petrie's trademark complex and fascinating characters inhabiting a tightly woven story that will keep thriller lovers riveted. The hype about Nick Petrie is real- he's just that damn good!"—Mark Greaney

“What seems simple and predictable turns complex and surprising in this thriller, the sixth in the Peter Ash series. The swiftly paced, action-dominated plot rushes headlong from its outset...Brisk, terse, and diverting.”—Kirkus Reviews

"Petrie excels at propulsive pacing while keeping his characters compelling, daring, and, best of all, morally courageous."—Minneapolis Star Tribune

“[A] grand-scale actioner.”—Booklist

"[A]drenaline-laden plot…Petrie continues to show his affinity with melding action and character in The Breaker."—South Florida Sun-Sentinel

Awful narration

Narrator was mechanical and hard to listen to. Story was really good but narrator detracted from the experience

Best Yet

This is the best one yet. I started to get sad it was coming to end and had to slow my pace down. Can’t wait for the next one.

Great Series

Peter Ash books never disappoint. We’ll written and we’ll narrated in audio books. Great reads

Great narration

I have really enjoyed this author but I do not like the use of G** D***and this book seems to use it even more than the other books and that’s saying something. If there was one thing in this book I would change that would be it!

Distracting pronunciation

I liked the story. I liked the characters. I really like this series. Found some of the narration distracting. Since when has a semi truck been a "semee"?

Strong story, stilted narration.

If you like the other Nick Petrie/Peter Ash novels, you’ll probably like this. However the narration is quite stilted which reduces the audio experience.

A great read!

Imagine Dean Koontz and Lee Child sharing a brain. Nick Petrie weaves a story with all the suspense and thrill of a Koontz novel while packing in the kind of action that keeps the pages turning. The military jargon, dark humor and language may not be kid friendly, but it strikes an authentic note for those who have served in the military. Absolutely worth the read and worth every penny.

Great series

As you read to reach one of the series, it gets better and better. Highly suggest reading his books.

Great story and naration

Loved it . Highly recommend as part of the series . Great storyline and strong narration. Can’t wait to read next in the series

Thank you! Great Milwaukee locations!

Thank you for basing this book in mke! I read and listen to many authors. I stumbled on you and realized I knew all of the locations you used in your story! Such a good story, seemed plausible, and realistic, at least to me. I enjoyed the characters in this story and love the friendship between Peter and Lewis. The narrator is great to listen to too. He does a great job! Can’t wait for the next book!!
