About this listen

The third book in the Chris Ryan Extreme series.

Disavowed.
No one can escape their past forever. Ex-SAS operator John Bald knows that better than most. So when the Firm corners Bald in Kazakhstan with a promise to wipe the slate clean, he reluctantly agrees to return to the frontline. His mission: hunt down a fugitive Russian oligarch suspected of murdering a beautiful young Westminster aide. Viktor Klich knows too much. Now Bald must catch Klich - before the Russian security services get to him first.

Desperate.
But what begins as a simple snatch-and-grab soon descends into a brutal fight for survival as Bald pursues Klich from the violent streets of Caracas to the brash glamour of Dubai, leaving a trail of blood and bullets in his wake. As he closes in on his quarry Bald finds his loyalties called into question. And when the mission goes wrong, he's accused of being complicit in a dangerous deceit.

Deadly.
Now Bald is a wanted man. Only one person can help him: Viktor Klich, the oligarch he was ordered to kill. In a world where nothing is as it seems, Bald will have to call on all his skills to stay alive, protect his former enemy - and uncover a dark secret that goes right to the heart of the establishment ...

The Chris Ryan Extreme books take you even further into the heart of the mission with more extreme action, more extreme language and more extreme pace. Like Call of Duty or Medal of Honour you'll feel part of the team.

This high octane tale certainly packs a punch.
Nobody takes you to the action better than Ryan, because he's the real deal.
Chris Ryan is as hard as nails.

good book but it was so very predictable, the series is starting to get very similar from story to story I'll try the next but may be the last if the story is as obvious as this one.

ok but predictable

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

At first, been used to josh cohan for the first 2 books, I hated this guy,different voices for the loved characters but I wanted to hear how the story of John and Joe went. You get used to it eventually and grow to love it. It may not be amazing, and seem like puppies following masters orders over and over again. But it's a good book. Can't wait to start the next one.

Not bad

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

John Bold just kept believing everything anyone said to him the whole time and that almost spoilt the story line for me.

The lead character was a little gullible!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Brilliant story as usual from Chris Ryan keeping you on the edge of your seat throughout

Brilliant

Chris Ryan books are my favourite but have to say they chose the wrong narrator for this audio book should of stuck with the same one.

Good but bad
