Publisher's summary

When terrorists attack Boston, Louis Massina races against time to save the city with a high-tech counteroffensive....

On Easter Sunday morning, the city of Boston is struck by a widespread and coordinated series of terrorist attacks: an explosion in the T, a suicide bomber at Back Bay Police Station, and heavily armed gunmen taking hostages at the Patriot Hotel.

For robotics innovator Louis Massina, aka the Puppet Master, this is far more personal than a savage act of political terrorism. Boston is his city - and one of his employees, Chelsea Goodman, is among the hostages facing certain death. As Chelsea fights from the inside, Massina leads his team of tech geniuses at Smart Metal to deploy every bot, drone, and cyber weapon at their disposal to defeat the fanatics and save his city and friend.

That's step one. Step two: find the twisted mastermind behind the attacks and make him pay.

Interesting Read

Could of had more action as a Dale Brown book does. The characters were all likable. Except Chelsea had irritated me quit often. Her “ I am the only one who can do this” attitude. When most of the time she was more a problem then an asset. All an all worth it.

Worst narration ever for an Audible book

This book was almost unlistenable and impossible to follow because of the awful narration. I have been an Audible consumer for many years and hundreds of books and this is the only one I have ever returned because the narration was so bad.

The book itself was ok, not the best by Brown/DeFelice but it became hard to separate the story from the distraction of the narration

B-rated story

Compared to other books of this nature this felt like a b-rated story. I'm not sure if it was the way the story was written or if it was the way the narrator was telling the story but I finally gave up listening as it just wasn't enjoyable enough to continue.

Bad overall. Bad timeline, story and ending.

This book is in direct contrast to the Dreamland series that I would rate with 5 stars.

Weak ending

Lazy writing.
Books should have a clear ending with all story lines concluded.
Not resolving the Protagonist is a mistake.
