Resumen del Editor

Dive into The Instructor, former Army intelligence officer T. R. Hendricks' fast paced, action-packed debut thriller that's Jack Reacher meets Survivorman, the first novel in the Derek Harrington series!

“Packed with action, tension, and humanity, The Instructor delivers.”—Mark Greaney, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Burner, a Gray Man Novel

Derek Harrington, retired Marine Force Recon and SERE instructor, is barely scraping by teaching the basics of wilderness survival. His fledgling bushcraft school is on the cusp of going out of business and expenses are piling up fast. His only true mission these days? To get his ailing father into a full care facility and to support his ex-wife and their son.

When one of his students presents him with an opportunity too good to be true—$20,000 to instruct a private group for 30 days in upstate New York—Derek reluctantly takes the job, despite his reservations about the group's insistence on anonymity. But it isn't long before the training takes an unexpected turn—and a new offer is made.

Reaching out to an FBI contact to sound his concerns, Derek soon finds himself in deep cover, deep in the woods, embroiled with a fringe group led by a charismatic leader who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. When what he wants becomes Derek's head, the teacher is pitted against his students as Derek races against time to stop what could very well be the first attack of a domestic terrorist cell.

“A pulse-pounding thriller. . . Hendricks delivers on all cylinders!”—Simon Gervais, former RCMP counterterrorism officer and bestselling author of The Last Protector

A rising star

Amazing! I don’t remember the last time I read a debut thriller this good. Maybe The Terminal List by Jack Carr. This book has everything you want in an action book: a formidable yet vulnerable hero, overpowering opposition, and lots of good old-fashioned ass-kicking. I can’t wait for Hendricks’ next book.

Really good

Good story line excited for the next book. A+ on the narrator. Would recommend this book.

Great story

Great story with a good narrator. Very enjoyable book to listen to. Tense and action packed.

A twist I did not see coming!

A home run of a debut, and epic entrance into the thrillerverse for Derek Harrington! Coupled with Jay Snyder’s performance, this is one you do not want to miss!

Awesome book

What can I say, Jay Snyder did a awesome job with this book. Never can go wrong with Jay Snyder doing a special operation boom. Story was awesome! I couldn't put the book down. It was exciting and thrilling and well worth it. Can't wait for the next book, going to be a epic series.

Wow!!

Not only did I read the book I listened to it as well! Incredibly written, with well thought out characters, Witt, and that feeling of I need to keep reading! Absolutely a page turner as well as an enjoyable audible! You don’t know who to love, who to hate, it truly keeps you on your toes! Can’t wait for T.R’s next book!! I need to know all the things about Derek!!

Unique writing style and capturing story

Fantastic story that’s always making you want to know what’s happening next. The twist was wildly unexpected and it makes me super excited to read the next book. The present tense writing is different and enjoyable. I’m very happy to have found this series and I hope it continues even with Hendricks writing for the Tom Clancy series.

A great listen!

A really good listen. Especially so, since this is a debut writer. I can't wait to get more from this author and I hope he doesn't do a George R.R. Martin on us.

If you are a fan of the Gray man or Match Rapp series you will love this one (Yes, I am one of those), I binged it during some work-travel. It left me wanting more!

I found the book looking via Jay Snyder. He is simply the best narrator - no doubt there.

Great book

Herd tr on a podcast talking about the book months ago, pre ordered immediately as it caught my interest, turned out to be a fantastic book, can’t wait for more

Fascinating Premise

The overall character development was good. The only issue with this is a need for external characters to be linked to the plot earlier on.
