Vengeance

Trident Deception Series, Book 8

De: Rick Campbell

Narrado por: Daniel Thomas May

The "heir to Clancy's throne" (The Real Book Spy) returns with his most compelling, explosive technothriller.

Despite decades of treaties, military missions, and covert actions devoted to preventing it, Iran has finally assembled its first nuclear bomb and the U.S., with UN backing, has decided it's time to take direct action. The first move is to blockade the Persian Gulf with a carrier strike group, but Iran strikes back quickly. With Russia's backing, Iran launches a devastating attack and now the U.S. forces are in a race against the clock to survive until reinforcements arrive and a counter-strike launched.

While events grow desperate in the Middle East, a plot to kill the President is unfolding. Jake Harrison, a now AWOL Navy SEAL, is lured back into action by his former partner Christine O'Connor to find and stop the freelance assassin, a man who has long been Harrison's nemesis.

With a deadly war brewing on two fronts—both overt and covert—the uneasy allies of Jake and Christine must use all their resources to circumvent the coming war. And as tensions threaten to boil over, Jake will be faced with the ultimate question: what is he willing to sacrifice for the revenge he wants?

Awful Narration, Huge plot holes

the narrator forced different voices using a falsetto voice with exaggerated accents and tones which were distracting, awful, and ruined parts of the story. there were also massive plot holes that are just inexcusable. An example, the belief that you could sneak C4 explosives carved into the shape of Easter Eggs into the white house with not a second thought. no bomb sniffing dog, no review, no security pass for the driver. also, Ohio class submarines are not capable of sitting down on the bottom of the ocean. unless you want a reactor to melt down. entertaining story, but it fails in so many spots. Please fix the narration and dont force your voice

Deception series is sinking

This series is getting worse with every book. Early books made me waiting impatiently for the next book to drop. After this book, I may be done with Trident Decetion series. Story line is meh but way to simplistic. So many plot holes. Very little details hence the simplistic viewpoint. Since when did a submarine series turn into a poor version of the 90's show "24"? When I initially saw that the audible was only 10 hours, I was disappointed but after finishing it, I was very glad. Not sure what was worse, the hole filled plot or the narration. Coin toss.
