The Silencer

Fully Loaded

Hard Target

Blowback

The Silencer:

CIA Black Ops agent John Smith is on his latest assignment in London. Little does he know - it'll be his last. Barely surviving an attack on his life, Smith lays low for six months until he returns to the United States. His flight is strangely diverted to Philadelphia where he meets a mysterious stranger who knows all about his past and recruits him for a job.

Needing a new identity, Smith becomes Michael Recker. He then tries to prevent bad things happening to innocent people while also interacting with the city's different crime factions. All the while, Recker plans his revenge on the mysterious Agent 17, who committed an act so heinous that Recker will never forget it.

Fully Loaded:

After being ambushed, Recker goes missing for several days and is presumed dead. Once he returns, he seeks retribution on the men responsible and turns to an unlikely source to help him get his revenge. As he embarks on his plot for revenge, he must not only carefully navigate around Mia's growing feelings for him, but also his own feelings for her.

While still not forgetting his main goal of helping the innocent, Recker also further cements his relationship with Tyrell by helping him with a family problem. Though he still keeps Mia at a distance, they can't help but become closer as Recker investigates the disappearance of one of her closest friends.

As Recker embarks on his deadly rampage, Jones worries about The Silencer's growing reputation amongst the public and government agencies.

Hard Target:

Recker finally reaches his boiling point and confronts Jones about his lack of progress in finding Agent 17. The professor, feeling guilty about not locating him, admits to a secret he's been hiding. As Recker is trying to find Agent 17, Mia launches her own investigation into her friend's death, frustrated that the killer still hasn't been brought to justice. Her lack of experience causes a major mistake - one that may cost the life of both her and Jones. Recker must not only find Agent 17, but save the lives of his friends before it's too late.

Blowback:

After the circumstances of Agent 17's death, the CIA turns to a specialist to help track down the man they think is responsible - John Smith. Though Recker knows Centurion is coming, he doesn't change how he operates and winds up on police surveillance cameras. Feeling the walls closing in, Jones wants to pack up and move to a new city, though Recker has reservations about leaving. It all boils down to a final confrontation between Recker and his former employers - one he may not survive.

Quite enjoyable

Getting the box set definitely makes this a fun book. Good story, good narration (I liked it at least) and a unique story line. As usual, the engineered drama (boy/girl, good guy/bad guy, moral/immoral) stuff gets a bit tedious, but doesn’t get in the way of a fun listen.

Fine

The book is very simplistic in plot, language and overall delivery. Not much detail or evidence of research in real world tactics or gear. Thin development with cliche hero and cringe inducing efforts at a romantic tinge. That being said it’s fairly entertaining with some funny stereotypical characters like Italian mobsters and inner city folk with great narration and performance by Brian Hutchison. Would only recommend to younger male demographic

Jones is too Unbelievable for me

I enjoyed the stories and the characters except for Jones. He was too much of a whiner to have the knowledge, experience, and skills he had in these stories, plus, he was the only character who didn't grow throughout.

Good story, lots of action and great humor

Parting from the point that I'm recovering of a nasty flu and watching tv gets annoying, I found the 4 books easy to listen, got addicted to it.

description

This seems to closely mirror the TV show Person of Interest from 2011 - 2016.

Enjoyed this box set!

I enjoyed this box set & had no issues with the narrator! Nothing else tosay.

Good storyline but unfortunately slowwww

The first 7 chapters are slowwwwww. The narration is monotoned thus causing a nod or two. The plot and storyline is good if you're willing to give it a few hours to get to the good parts.

Great characters

Kept my attention throughout the timeline and overall plot. Reminds me of the series person of interest. Good author and narration was very good also.

I’ll be back!

A fun, laughable at times CIA type mystery with a twist!
Very enjoyable!
Worth the listen!

Silencer

I enjoyed the box set so much I am continuing with the next series. I want to see where the silencer goes from here.
