About this listen

The second installment of the riveting new thriller series by former Green Beret and USA Today best-selling author Jason Kasper

"David Rivers is back with a vengeance...and the stakes have never been higher." (Steven Konkoly, USA Today best-selling author of the Ryan Decker series)

After the largest terrorist attack in US history is narrowly foiled, the sole enemy survivor has only one name to provide his interrogators: Ghulam Samedi, a fugitive hiding in the rugged mountains of China’s Xinjiang Province.

As part of the CIA’s newly minted targeted killing program, David Rivers and his team are tasked with assassinating Samedi.

But once they are inside China, there will be no backup, no air support, and no escape - only a handful of local assets with dubious motivations. The location is known for its opium smugglers, violent separatist movement, and heavy deployment of Chinese secret police.

Which is exactly why Rivers’ team of former mercenaries was assembled for this covert operation. They are unilateral, unattributable, and if things go wrong, utterly expendable.

As Rivers embarks on his most challenging mission yet, he will stop at nothing to hunt down Samedi…the last target standing between him and a sinister conspiracy with global implications.

The tight knit team as hunters or hunted in this relentless exhausting and exhilarating next instalment

Relentless

Plenty of twists and challenges, although a few were a little easy to see coming.
The only item I felt let it down, only because I would either have to pause or jump back, was the narrators lack of making the characters voices much easier to identify🧐. Only 2 stood out was one southern accent and the other purely because of the obvious nature of their personality (which of course was down to the writer). I don't wish to name characters just in case this is the first book listeners hear.

Great writing as always

Really enjoyed this one. Worth a listen, the character development is better in this one compared to the first book in the series.

Fast paced and well researched
