Burke's Gamble

Bob Burke Action Thriller #2

De: William F. Brown

Narrado por: Derrick Magolski

"Bob Burke is back! It’s the American Sniper meets The Godfather, Round #2, or Bob Lee Swagger takes on the New York City mob.

Mild-mannered and slight of build, this telecommunications company executive is easily dismissed as the "phone guy." After four tours running "special operations" missions in Iraq and the rugged mountains of Afghanistan as an Army Ranger and Delta Force commander, he's one of the most lethal killers the US government ever produced.

When one of his old NCOs takes a header from the fifth floor of an Atlantic City casino run by the infamous Genovese and Lucchese NY mob families, someone’s going to answer for it and payback’s gonna be a bitch!

This time, it won’t be a "Gumbah" hunt with sniper rifles in a Chicago Forest preserve park. Bob and his Merry Men are going to take the Mob’s money, all of it, from a Mafia Don holed up in the casino’s penthouse, backed by a dozen mob gunmen and an elite team of foreign mercenaries.

While there’s always a place for a Barrett .50-caliber sniper rifle or two, this time Bob calls on a pair of baby-faced computer Geeks, a two-star Army General, a Chicago homicide detective, a female Air Force pilot, a Russian computer programmer, one of the world’s most renowned pickpockets, and his new wife, Linda. From stealth helicopters to luxury yachts, fishing trawlers, and bodies in 55-gallon oil drums, the action is non-stop.

Whether you’re looking for a good beach listen or a thriller to listen to in front of the fireplace, put this fast-moving action adventure novel into your cart, from the author of Burke’s War, Burke's Revenge, The Undertaker, Amongst My Enemies, Thursday at Noon, Aim True, My Brothers, Winner Lose All, and the Cold War Trilogy three book boxed set. Pick one up and enjoy!

Excellent

Burke is back with another action fast pace story. To help a friend in Atlanta.City, which now looks like murder, he is dealing with the mafia, casino boss. His Delta Force group come and a war is on to prove it was murder of his friend. The narration was superb and added to the story. Given audio for my voluntary review

None stop action

WOW! I hated for this book too end but I couldn't read it fast enough to satisfy my curiosity about what would happen next. This was none stop action from start to finish. Women, gambling, the mafia and enough bodies litter the pages and would make any man happy to sit down and read this book. I think I have found another good author that writes great action thrillers, I'm going to follow this guy I might even get some free books. Well I can dream can't I?

5 Stars !

Non stop action, great characters, could not stop listening ! Really enjoy William Brown's books. Look forward to more.

Another William F Brown Success

Bill Brown's books are just fun to read and listen to. Bob Burke is a badass on the level of Mitch Rapp and Scot Harvath although he has to be pushed a bit more to take action... but when he does he doesn't go for half measures. His crew is a mixed bag of personalities. Now that I think of it, Burke and Co. remind me more of David Baldacci's Camel Club (a 5 book series that ended way too soon)

I'd read the Kindle version of this and was excited to find out that it was available as an audiobook. The narrator did a great job giving voice to the characters. The only reason I gave his performance 4 stars instead of 5 was that I'm 99% sure he was Canadian. Every time one of the US Army guys said, "Aboat" or something like that I cringed a tiny bit. Other than that he was great. Just looked it up. Canadian. LOL

I've read several of William F Brown's Books and have enjoyed them all. I just bought the 4th book on kindle.

Disclosure. I got the audio version of the book with a free code. I paid for the Kindle version.

Outstanding tale of action and keeps you listining

This was well written, and the performance was great as well. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I am now going back to listen to the 1st in the series " Burkes War" If you like action and adventure look no further. I have become an instant fan
