Dead Heat

The Last Jihad, Book 5

By: Joel C. Rosenberg

Narrated by: Phil Gigante

Oil prices are surging to record highs. A new dictator is rising in Iraq. China is threatening Taiwan. North Korean forces are ready to strike south. Israel is feverishly trying to complete the Third Temple....

And in the midst of a world ready to explode, American president James MacPherson's second term is ending. The battle to succeed him is heating up into the most fiercely contested presidential election in American history. Who will lead a bitterly divided country over the next four years? And just what role - if any - does the U.S. play in history's last days?

As the presidential campaign narrows into a dead heat, the Secret Service learns of a catastrophic terrorist plot to assassinate one of the candidates - but which one? Who do they want dead? And can U.S. forces stop the terrorists before millions lose their lives?

Critic reviews

"His novels seem to be ripped from the headlines - next year's headlines." ( Washington Times)
"Gigante blazes through it with clarity and aplomb." ( AudioFile)

Edge of your seat great book

Fantastic book, jumps you right into the book from the beginning and holds you right to the end. It was also easy to follow though it is book 5 in the series and I read it first. Highly recommended!!

Loved it!! Cheered, cried and hit "rewind" many times!

I literally cheered and praised God many times while listening to this book series. Especially the two "big events" at the End of Dead Heat, "and then he saw Jesus" I cried and hit replay several times just imagining this. I then cheered in my car when the president was suddenly gone. Hit replay on this one too. My next audio book is the Holy Bible.

Loved the Book Series!

I'm not sure how anyone who knew anything about Joel missed the this is a Christian Book Series.
This is book 5 in the "Jon Bennett" series and is it's final book.
Series order: The Last Jihad, The Last Days, The Ezekiel Option, The Copper Scroll, Dead Heat.
Come on Audible, get them all!

Great Story, Great audio book

This is the first book of Joel Rosenberg's that I have listened to, and I chose this book after hearing numerous interviews with him. What an inspiring, action packed novel, with great scriptural prophecy and political thrills. I loved this and have been recommending it to everyone I know.

Don't try to listen to this to go to sleep!

The tempo of this book is astounding. a fine finish to an excellent series!
