Story
Max Seager was the best there was. His skills sharpened in the midst of a brutal African civil war, he was at once a policeman, soldier and detective - a tracker of men. He thought he’d left that life behind him, but then he learns that his particular expertise is required again. Two teenage girls have been abducted and are being held to ransom, hidden deep within the Zimbabwean bush that was once his hunting ground. The mother of one of the girls begs him to help and, unable to walk away, Max returns to Africa with a handpicked team of former comrades-in-arms.

To uncover the truth, Quayle must keep her safe from the threat of a powerful enemy in a globetrotting race against time.

Great fun!
I had started to worry when I was 3 hours in and Quail had only been introduced. (Worried it was going to turn out to be all about an MI6 mole hunt)
But once it’s all set up, it settles in the more active bad-ass guy takes on the world story.
There are some interesting developments, who becomes an ally, Titus’s backstory, his relationships, some of the plot… not twists, I guess—aspects. There’s a love aspect to it I didn’t expect— but unlike some books like this, it wasn’t obligatory in theory but superfluous in reality. ( like the bond-girl, or annoying but always sexy person the hero has to save ). I felt it added to the story and characters. Gave them depth and heart. Made me care for “their” sake, not just me wanting to know what happens.
The narrator is fun. It’s like being told a story— not childrens bedtime story like some of them do. More like a campfire story, or someone acting out a scene. Sometimes a bit incongruous with action scenes, but I didn’t mind. His voices are excellent. Different accents as they travelled around the world. Differentiating voices, including a distinct voice and pacing for narration vs voices. It was fun to listen to. He hooked me.
Written differently or possibly with different narrator I might have gotten impatient… but I didn’t. It’s a very Rich book, as in layers and details. Excessive scene or supporting character details , wanting him to get to the exciting stuff. But again, I didn’t. More like I settled in and surrendered to the story. Ok Titus/John- you win. Set the scene, paint me a picture—I’m in for the ride.

I’m shocked how rubbish this was
It starts off slow and complex, but thought I would give benefit of doubt to see if it got going...,, another long complex chapter filed with complete and descriptions that were so unnecessary ...., oh my it got worse absolute rubbish made to chapter 11 of 13 couldn’t carry on no more .. yep long and laborious . Nothing high octane, no pulse stopping adrenaline moments, no gasps of twists, nothing just a long painful monotone from the narrator. Not sure if he was trying to make the best of a bad situation- as in that many characters he was running out of dialect etc . Absolute garbage 🗑 if I could give no stars I would have 😂

Good old fashioned spy thriller
The audiobook was released quite recently but the story itself is dated. Having just finished a couple of Frederick Forsyths from the pre-mobile phone era, this fits right in there.
There is quite a lot of the same casual sexism too, more’s the pity.
