WINNER Best Indie Book Award, 2025 for Suspense/Thriller!

Michael Thorne meets with a French spy to talk about a nuclear warhead floating around on the black market. It’s an easy assignment, right up to the moment someone tries to kill him. He survives, but there are complications. The trail of the bomb leads to Serbia and the dark stain of Srebrenica.

During a fleet exercise on the China Sea, the flagship of the Chinese Navy is torpedoed and sunk with all hands. It looks like she was attacked by a submarine from Taiwan. But what if it wasn’t Taiwan? If they didn’t do it, who did? Who wants to start a war? Thorne is posted to Taipei, where things aren’t always what they appear to be.

The Chinese want revenge for the loss of their ship. They’re ready to invade Taiwan and plan a first strike on America if Washington comes to the island’s aid. As the world nears the point of no return, Thorne may be the only hope to prevent nuclear Armageddon. Espionage Genre Fiction Military Spies & Politics Thriller & Suspense War & Military

I will never buy another audio book that doesn't hire real people to perform. The intonation was all wrong and I couldn't easily tell which character was speaking because they all sound the same. The story was good, but I'm really disappointed in Alex Lukeman. I hope he chooses live narrators in the future so I can hear his books.
