Resumen del Editor

Sam Capra returns as he embarks on a one-man mission to find his brother from the New York Times best-selling author, Jeff Abbott, in this "fast-paced, high-octane" read (Publishers Weekly).

Two brothers. One dead, executed by extremists on a grainy video. The other forged into a top undercover agent. But now, Sam Capra has reason to believe that his brother, Danny, may be alive. And if Danny has been living a secret life these past years, where has he been - and what has he become?

Sam's desperate search for his brother leads him into a modern heart of darkness: The Russian elite inner circle, a group of ruthless ex-KGB billionaires who owe fealty to Russia's corrupt president, Morozov. One of these men wants Morozov dead. And Danny will be the one to kill him - on American soil.

To save his brother - and to save the world from certain war - Sam, along with his mysterious partner, Mila, must stop Danny from killing Morozov. The mission will take Sam from the slums of Pakistan to the hipster galleries of Brooklyn to the Caribbean playgrounds of the superrich. And as Sam untangles the secret past locked in his brother's heart, he may be forced to make a choice between his brother - and the greater good...

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Thriller Award-winner Abbott draws on Shakespeare's King Lear for his outstanding fourth Sam Capra novel...Abbott injects enough of Sam's back story to make his intricate plot believable, judiciously spices his tale with tasteful but usually interrupted romance, and convincingly makes Sam a genuine contemporary 'chevalier." ( Publishers Weekly)

"Exciting and imaginative, full of action and intrigue. Abbott's writing raises the pulse, taking readers on a wild adventure." ( Free-Lance Star)

Good pacing, will there be more?

A bit different than the previous stories. The pacing was good and plot twists entertaining. Although the story was more grounded in reality, so enjoyed.

The narrator was good.

Wonderful story!

The story was very good and was narrated in a griping and thrilling spy story.

Worth the listen

Good story & worth the listen. Kept my interest throughout the book. Some parts were a little predictable but still good.

real good book

I would have done 4.5 on story if I could. the story was great except at one point where things got a little to complicated with too many people lying to one another at the same time. Was a little too outrageous. But the author turned it back around and it started getting really good again. It was just in one chapter. If you like espionage stories this one is more than worth the credit.

The First Order

The Sam Capra Series never ceases to keep me on the edge of my seat. I am looking forward to the next.volume.

my good book review

Good book
and I do not have a 20 word review to give it's a good book

Thrilling

A thrilling continuation of Sam's story. I was hoping Danny would live. I hope Melia I'd in the next story.

I'm a little pissed off...

Okay, so I just discovered Sam Capra, which meant that I got to binge listen.... and I did. I listened to the whole series in one good binge... and then the next title is not out! So I am a little pissed...

By why do I give this series such a good review: First the narrator, I always know who is talking. The narrator has chosen voices and accents for each character, and I am never wondering who is talking. That is not an easy task.

I like all the characters. They are all flawed, and I never quite know what is really going on behind the scenes, so there is a limited viewpoint, which I like.

I like the set up for the main character. It's just a fun, easy, and interesting listen.

But start at the beginning of the series.

Can't wait for the next installment!

Fantastic addition to the Same Capra story! Kevin T Collins is a superb voice actor.

Best in Series (so far…)

I absolutely love the non-stop, ‘twisty-turny’ action and intrigue of this series, and I can’t wait to read the next one! The narrator is great as well - I have no clue if it sounds authentic to native speakers, but I especially love when he narrates with a Russian accent.
