Publisher's summary

Snatched by a drug cartel. Forgotten by his government.

Fight with America's Secret Military Elite to Rescue a US Commander

High-ranking US military commander Chuck Warden is taken hostage by the ruthless Black Stone Mexican drug cartel, who work hand in hand with a treacherous Middle Eastern terrorist group.

Corrupt US officials turn a blind eye. But Lieutenant Colonel Hap "Kang" Stoner takes action, leading a gritty squadron of Marine aviators on an unauthorized raid into Mexico to bring Warden home.

With intense action and stark realism, author Hugh Simpson pulls you into the pit of a gut-wrenching black ops mission where you'll:

  • Plunge into the harsh, brutal world of foreign drug cartels
  • Witness unthinkable government greed, lies, and corruption
  • Discover the true meaning of courage, heroism, and patriotism

Borderline Decision opens your eyes to the chilling threat that lives at America's doorstep. You'll be forced to face the cold reality that your government conspires with people who want you dead.

All that stands between you and them are the silent heroes you've never met... until now.

Borderline Decision takes you deep into daring black military operations you never hear about. The action is riveting and suspenseful. You'll live it, feel it, and ask for more.” (Casey Demchak, copywriter & consultant)

okay

I really don't like writing bad reviews so I'm not happy right now. But I agreed to write an honest review for this book.

Writing:
I'm a big fan of action adventure audiobooks/books so I was disappointed with this book. There is a lot of action which I loved but Hugh Simpson's characters were often dated stereotypes. The writer portrayed Marines as mostly "god fearing" men and the majority of females were referred to as mostly sex objects or as decoration for the men.

And yes, I'm female. No, I don't like Chick Lit. Nor am I a fem nazi.

I can easily relate to the men in the majority of action novels. I've bought all the novels by Clive Cussler, Steve Becker, Mark Greaney, Tom Clancy, just to name a few. I cheer them on and want to fight side by side with them. I don't need a female lead in my action adventure. I can usually and easily relate to a male lead. Not so with these characters.

Production: Was amazing. I love, love, love the sound effects. They complimented the narrator and never drowned him out.

Narrator: Again, amazing. Chris Ritchie is an excellent narrator. He gave all the characters their own voice and it honestly felt like multiple narrators. I hope he continues to narrate. He seems to be a natural for it.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
