“Mesmerizing and haunting.” (Lisa Gardner)
“T. Jefferson Parker is the poet of American crime fiction, and The Room of White Fire absolutely proves why.” (C.J. Box)
In this stirring thriller from New York Times best seller and award winner T. Jefferson Parker, P.I. Roland Ford must hunt down a soldier who is damaged by war, dangerous, and on the run.
Roland Ford - once a cop, then a marine, now a private investigator - is good at finding people. But when he’s asked to locate an Air Force veteran who’s escaped from a mental institution, he realizes he’s been drawn into something deep and dark. What he doesn’t know is why a shroud of secrecy hangs over the disappearance of Clay Hickman - and why he’s getting a different story from everyone involved. In a flash, what began as just a job becomes a life-or-death obsession for Ford, pitting him against immensely powerful and treacherous people and forcing him to contend with chilling questions about truth, justice, and the American way.
“A fast-paced, beautifully written thriller.” (The Washington Post)

Very depressing.

Basically this book is about a CIA prison, White Fire. It's also about enhanced interrogation techniques. There are two scenes in this book that are very hard to listen to that describe what I'm sure is only a small portion of the kind of things that actually occurred. I can only guess that Parker has interviewed many veterans to put together a compilation of experiences.
For the most part this book boils down to greed and not the actual care of the people suffering from their war experiences.
This is a good vs evil thriller and I hope that Parker will continue with this protagonist, Roland Ford. He's an intelligent PI with his own set of morals and principles.
Will Damron does an excellent job narrating.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Ford tells the story in his own voice, and we experience all his fears, his ghosts, and his questions. We see his flaws; we see his fabric of life hanging in the balance, and we are on his side. We observe the other characters through his filter. Ford offers us factual descriptions, but emotional opinions and observations. While he thinks that everyone has a morsel of goodness somewhere, we are not so sure. Ford uses all his senses to pull us into the story.
“Maybe it was the slamming of the Dutch door.
Or the wind in the grapes, or the way the tire swing turned on its rope.”
“Shade goes well with a warm day, a cold beer, and a stack of almost-overdue bills…
I paused to look out at the pond and the rolling hills beyond.”
“The Room of White Fire” is a difficult story to listen to at times because of the challenging social content. Parker creates a haunting scenario that readers may have read about in newspapers or heard about on TV but may not want to admit might be true. As we listen to the details about Ford’s struggle, about Hickman’s struggle, we must also wonder who among us is struggling with the same problems. This is a book we must all should listen to
The good news is that while this story has a definite end, Roland Ford’s story does not. I think Ford will find his way into another Parker story in the future, and I for one cannot wait.
Will Damron was outstanding with the delivery of the story
