🚨 "Family" = "target." 😮‍💨🛡️ Mark Greaney on THE HARD LINE (Gray Man #15, Feb 17) & why Court Gentry turns protector. 🎧Listen NOW

🕵️‍♂️⚠️ What happens when the mission stops being professional… and becomes personal?

On the latest Not Old Better Show, brought to you by Fitbod. Fitbod: WORLD'S BEST FITNESS PROGRAMMING FOR LIFELONG PROGRESS we sit down with New York Times bestselling author Mark Greaney, creator of the Gray Man series, to talk about his newest thriller: THE HARD LINE (Gray Man #15, out Feb 17, 2026). 📚🗓️

This story shifts Court Gentry's focus from hunter to protector 🛡️—because "family" becomes another word for "target." ❤️🎯 For many of us, especially 50+ and 60+, that lands close: the lifelong role of keeping others safe, even when it costs you sleep, comfort, or peace of mind.

We also talk craft and credibility 🔍🌍—Mark's location work (including D.C. energy 🚇🇺🇸), the reality behind modern espionage, and how he writes an antagonist with a code ⚔️🧩… someone you may not agree with, but can't ignore.

If you like conversations about resilience 💪, loyalty 🤝, and the bonds we build over a lifetime ❤️—this episode is for you.
