Publisher's summary

In Ben Coes' latest, Eye for an Eye, Dewey Andreas faces the toughest odds of his life as one of China's most powerful men has decided to do whatever he must to take down Dewey—and inflicts a horrifying loss.

When Dewey uncovers the identity of a mole embedded at a high level in Israel's Mossad, it triggers a larger, more dangerous plot. The mole was the most important asset of Chinese Intelligence, and Fao Bhang, head of China's Ministry of State Security (MSS), responds to the discovery and brutal elimination of the mole, by immediately placing a kill order on the man responsible—Dewey Andreas.

Dewey is tracked to Argentina, where he is on vacation with his fiancée, Jessica Tanzer, a U.S. National Security Advisor. A top-level kill team is sent in quickly and quietly, but their attack fails to take out Dewey. The collateral damage, however, is both horrifying and deeply personal. With nothing left to lose, Andreas is determined to have his revenge. Once he learns who is probably behind the attack—and why they are after him—Dewey goes rogue, using all of his assets and skills to launch a counterattack. Andreas must now face the full weight and might of the MSS, Chinese Intelligence, and the formidable Fao Bhang, if he's to achieve his one last goal: revenge on a biblical scale, no matter the odds or the armies that he will have to fight his way through. Andreas—former Army Ranger and Delta—is a man of great skills and cunning. His opponent, Fao Bhang, is ruthless, determined, and with no limit to the assets at his disposal.

In this conflict, there are only two possible outcomes. And only one Dewey Andreas.

Critic reviews

“An exceptional American hero story.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Coes delivers his best effort to date...full-throttle action.” —Booklist (starred review)

wooow

the story line, character building and narrator, all A plus. you'd love it if you are into espionage themed stories

Another great one.

Performance was excellent, and really well done. Another great read (listen) by Been and a very cohesive and we'll rounded story. About to start the next in the series.

Just awesome

Would you listen to Eye for an Eye again? Why?

Yes, already have!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Hands down, Dewy. Coes does a great job of character development. so you really get to know Dewy. He is just a no nonsense dude. But he is also methodical and cunning. Just a really fun character to get know.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

For Sure!!!!

Any additional comments?

Listen to them in order. They get better as the series goes on.

lots of excitement

I really enjoy the Dewey Andreas series. The books are loaded with action and likeable characters. However, I wish someone would burn Mr. Coes thesaurus, because
now and then he throws in "synonyms" which are totally wrong for the situation. Example: "smoke was cantilevered across the air." This volume seems to have more than its share.
That said, it's always entertaining to read one of his books.

I knew it, I just knew it

It doesn't pay to fall for Dewey. Figured something was going to happen to bring out the warrior in Dewey and sure enough. Love Dewey, love Coes and I hope there isn't a long wait for the next book. Perhaps I should say I hope there is a next book. Dewey is cranky, mean and indifferent to life which makes for a fun, rough ride. Tough though .. I liked Jessica.

Great story

Reminds me a lot of Mitch Rapp. Coes terms a good tale and the narration is top notch. The next book is already queued up to listen to.

Another fantastic book!

I enjoyed the story line! Made you laugh and cry! Looking forward to listening to the next book.

Best of the Dewey books

I've read and listened to all of the Dewey Andreas books multiple times and enjoy them all. This is, however, my favorite of the series. Coes has a great way of pulling you in emotionally in this book. I nearly cry in the sad part and I do get angry and want to fight when Dewey has to fight.

Narration is great. Even having just finished the book I'm toying with the idea of restarting it immediately.

my replacement series for losing mitch rapp.

What did you love best about Eye for an Eye?

I've read all the books in the dewey andreas series and absolutely love them. I put this series right up there with mitch rapp. I can't say enough. suspense. action. ex delta operator. its got it all. can't wait for the next one. they get better and better each time, never waivering from the essence of the hero, dewey andreas.

Who was your favorite character and why?

dewey, of course.

Which scene was your favorite?

the whole book equally.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

not sure.

Any additional comments?

mr coes, please keep these coming. good job!

Keeps getting better

Ben Coes is the top dog in the espionage terrorism genre right now. Dewey Andreas is as bad as they come. If the country is in trouble better call Dewey. Just don't let him care about you. Great books. Every one is fantastic.
