Summary

One book, two missions, and a memory key full of secrets!

After a series of terrorist attacks on fracking sites owned by a gas multinational named Drilsink, Sir James Aiken’s agency is bought in to find the radical eco-terrorist group responsible. He sends Sam and Declan to work undercover at Imperial College where Intel suggests the group are recruiting. While Sam works behind the scenes, Declan takes on the identity of geologist Dr. Tobias Hunter and soon makes an enemy of a fellow science geek - a man who Declan comes to despise more than Sir James Aiken!

When the operation moves from London to Munich and then Vienna, Sam, and Declan are thrown headlong into a spy scenario straight out of the thriller novels they love to read - but with a distinct and disturbing sexual twist! Sam meets an old friend and uncovers shocking information about James’ past.

With Erik Madsson still imprisoned inside the ALL HQ, James comes to realize that he should have listened to his son. Keeping the enemy inside his own home is about to be the biggest mistake he has ever made.

This audiobook is an M/M romance thriller and therefore contains graphic gay sexual references.

Brilliant series

What a brilliant series, ended on a cliffhanger. Can't wait for book six. Excellent narration. One the the best things I love about this series is that all the foreign languages spoken are translated into English, so I don't need find out what was said. There are a lot of books that I have read or listened too and they don't translate the foreign languages spoken in their books.

Detailed plot

It's no secret that I love narration by Gary Furlong and, in this audiobook, he once again excels. The roll call of characters is quite extensive in Powder Burns, so lots of scope for different voices, and even accents and speaking in foreign languages. I am particularly impressed with the German! In between voices, the story is told in crisp English tones.

Now...confession time. This is the first book in the Shatterproof Bonds series that I have read or listened to. I found it easy to jump right in and enough of the backstory is there so that I didn't feel confused. The plot is detailed enough that I could lose myself in it, which is something I need in these troubled times.

I read a couple of chapters and listened to a few more, so became aware of the typos in the ebook. Fortunately these didn't cross over into the audio version. That is my only negative point. I will definitely go back now and read the other 4 books.

Genius at work times two.

The Shatterproof bonds series has been one of my all time favourites. Excellent writing and a very well interwoven story. I was so glad the story wasn’t over when I got to the end. And OMG the narration... I honestly can’t believe it’s one guy. Gary Furlong is an absolute genius.
