About this listen

A storm is brewing in the heartlands of America and John Milton senses something in the air....

John Milton has a nose for trouble. He can smell it a mile away. And when he witnesses a suspicious altercation between a young man and two thugs in a car auction parking lot, he can’t resist getting involved. Milton came to Kansas City hoping to find a way out of danger. His recent vendetta against a cartel hitman who killed his friend has made him enemies in high places. Now he needs to find the only man who can get him out of this mess. But, like a moth to a flame, Milton is drawn to anyone who needs his help. And this time, he’s also drawing the attention of money laundering criminals who really mean business. Driven by a desire to atone for the darkness in his past, Milton is a man on a mission. But, in a city of undercover crime and corruption, what does that mean for his future? With danger all around him, will Milton’s burning conscience finally be the death of him?

Critic reviews

“Mark Dawson’s John Milton books are sharper than a stiletto. If you’ve run out of Lee Child books, Dawson is your man. Absolutely brilliant.” (Matt Nixson, Books Editor, Mail on Sunday)

"It’s impossible not to think of Lee Child’s super-selling Jack Reacher." (The Times)

"A literary sensation." (The Daily Telegraph)

Probably one of the most 'unputdownable' novels in the series, I pretty much listened non-stop. Characters are great. Only downside was that Ellie Flowers didn't actually appear though she was mentioned. She always manages to make Milton just a little uncomfortable.

Fantastic narration as ever. I also really enjoyed the conversation recorded between Mark Dawson and David Thorpe that follows the book. A must listen all round. Can't wait to get Ronin in my library.

Another fantastic Milton book

The combo of Mark D the author & David T the narrator is amazing & in my view the reason Milton is so believable! The detail, research, the real humility make Mark’s books a winner, every time.. Looking forward to book 18.

Footnote: Readers, please listen right to the end even after the pause, where Mark & David do a little Q&A 👍🏻

OMG - Milton just gets better!!!
