The Hit

De: David Baldacci

Narrado por: Ron McLarty, Orlagh Cassidy

Master assassin Will Robie must track down a deadly rogue agent, but the attacks conceal a larger threat that could send shockwaves through the U. S. government and around the world in this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller.

Will Robie is a master of killing.

A highly skilled assassin, Robie is the man the U.S. government calls on to eliminate the worst of the worst--enemies of the state, monsters committed to harming untold numbers of innocent victims.

No one else can match Robie's talents as a hitman...no one, except Jessica Reel. A fellow assassin, equally professional and dangerous, Reel is every bit as lethal as Robie. And now, she's gone rogue, turning her gun sights on other members of their agency.

To stop one of their own, the government looks again to Will Robie. His mission: bring in Reel, dead or alive. Only a killer can catch another killer, they tell him.

But as Robie pursues Reel, he quickly finds that there is more to her betrayal than meets the eye. Her attacks on the agency conceal a larger threat, a threat that could send shockwaves through the U.S. government and around the world.

Great story

It was not clear on audible that this was an abridge version so I wasted a credit on a really short book and that just pisses me off

I was ripped off!

I'm sure the story is good it's just they sold me in abridged version and nowhere did it say it was abridged. This audio book is 4 hours shorter than the one that I thought I was getting. I don't like not getting the whole story the way the author wrote it I don't think they should sell you an abridged one unless you ask for it.

As trite as a spy thriller gets.

I don't recommend this book for anyone, even those that are into Spy thrillers.

Not bad, but a little slow and odd narration

I enjoyed the story, but it felt kind of slow at times. Also, the narration used a male narrator and a female to voice the female characters. I've never tried this before, but found it odd and didn't really care for it. The female actor would say something like "I don't know about that" and then the male actor would say "she said"... It's almost like turning a book into a movie, but having someone still say all the "he said, she said" stuff. Not that bad really - but just awkward i think. I guess i learned that i prefer the more standard narration, even if men have to voice women's voices. (That's never bothered me anyway.) In all, i'm glad i listened, and the book is worthwhile, but didn't really pull me in either.
