The Devil in Cologne

Atlas Hargrove, Book 4

De: R.B. Schow

Narrado por: James Way

A nefarious underground network in one of Germany’s most beautiful cities. A den of heathens protected by the world’s worst people...

There is a plague of crime so dark it hides in plain sight. The corruption involves the highest levels of business and government, the nation’s most prominent people, and monsters of every sort.

These people want Atlas Hargrove dead. Now one of them has found him. Is this the end for Atlas, or a brand new beginning?

When the 14-year-old son of a powerful member of the Bundesrat goes missing, a call is made, a deal is struck, and Leopold summons the team to Cologne, Germany where they will hunt for a kidnapped child and the people who took him. But if he hopes to get Atlas out of prison, he must face a very pissed-off warden: Kathleen Richardson. And then he will have to deal with a larger, more dangerous problem: the FBI.

They have reason to believe that Atlas was in Prague...

Full of suspense, gritty-dirty action, a dash of humor, and characters you love and would want to know in real life, this edge-of-your-seat vigilante justice thriller will have you listening long into the night!

The adventure and intrigue

Absolutely nothing the story was very interesting from beginning to end. I couldn't wait to read

I NEED BOOK 5!

Boo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo oo! And now I wait.

Great story.

Great story. Hopefully not the last in the series. There is a legit twist at the end and hopefully we can see what happens

Hargrove Shrugged

if you've hit book four you'll probably understand how this reader could draw a parallel between Atlas Hargroves oddessy to Ayn Rand's title defining metaphor in a handful of lines from 'Atlas Shrugged'.

"If you saw Atlas — the giant who holds the world on his shoulders,
— If you saw that he stood, blood running down his chest, his knees buckling, his arms trembling, but still trying to hold the world aloft with the last of his strength.
And the greater his effort, the heavier the world bore down upon his shoulders, what would you tell him to do?”
"You ask me what would I tell him?
Reload Atlas... reload"

To me the parallel is fitting. Not in some literary high brow book club discussion sense, where Atlas drops the weight of the heavens down on the bad guys. The Hargrove shrug is more akin to an off the ring ropes top turnbuckle atomic elbow slam that painfully and publicly obliterates those evil rat f'n sob's. And this world needs that Atlas. We really do.
Many thanks to R.B. Schow for absolutely crushing it with each installment in this series.

This had me in tears, really looking forward to next one. This series has opened my eyes to things suspected, but now real. Go Atlas!!!
Thanks for the great narration James.

Schow delivers again Atlas deliver justice!

Boy can RB Schow write some truly terrible awful no good very bad villains. Fortunately, he also created the man to deal with these vermin. Atlas Hargrove is a classic hero written in a modern and frankly bad ass way. The "Devil" in the title ranks as one of the worst vermin Atlas has ever been sent after. What's nice is that the story has evolved through the first four novels. It's not merely the same format as the first book. In between the action and villainy, we have learned more about Atlas as a character, just as we are learning more about his fellow "teammates." I'm looking forward to getting into the next book in the series.
