About this listen
Flynn was one of the elite, a highly trained sniper in the British army who was proud of his skills and lived by a strict moral code. But even the best can crack when the stress becomes intolerable and now he’s on the rampage bearing a grudge and carrying an arsenal of stolen weapons. He believes that good soldiers are being killed because governments go to war over oil. In his twisted mind, anyone who drives a gas guzzling four by four is the enemy and deserves to die. As he carves a trail of terror and death across the country, the authorities are closing in. But for one man, it’s become personal. Nick Sullivan is holding a grudge of his own and is hard on the heels of the sniper. But when he finally hunts down his quarry, will his thirst for revenge blind him to the fact that he’s no match for a professionally trained killer? For Flynn is the best there is. He’s a master of his craft.

This time, Nick’s pursuing a lead in his own time when an old Uni friend’s name is discovered on a list in a dead hitman’s pocket, so he’s taken Annalise on a holiday to Scotland. But that holiday becomes more dangerous and more personal than Nick could ever have bargained for.
Once again, a good story, which is very well narrated by Craig Bowles, as Nick tries to find out why his old friend, Andrew is a target, and what, if anything, links the dead hitman and the sniper who is slowly working his way north. With a hitman who decides almost on a whim who is guilty and deserving to be killed, and Nick and Annalise finding themselves in his cross-hairs, the author balances tension with humour to keep the reader interested throughout.
Great third outing for Nick Sullivan

Nick Sullivan is on the hunt again but this time he’s chasing a very determined and capable opponent. Flynn was an interesting antagonist. He was loyal and a hard worker but then circumstances pushed him over the edge. In a twisted way, he started targeting those he saw as the source of the problem – people owning large gas guzzling vehicles. His actions quickly put him on the radar of all law enforcement, including the small agency Nick moonlights with.
I think Nick was built to hunt down bad guys. He loves the danger and the rush. While he’s really good at this profession, he lacks skills in so many other areas, like personal relationships. In fact, his relationship with Annalise is pushed to a breaking point. I still don’t like Nick but I do find him interesting. I suspect Annalise is starting to feel the same way. Nick is still pretty dismissive of the feelings of anyone around him, though I think he does try with Annalise. Tries and usually fails.
This is the first book in this series where two women share a scene and talk to one another. Yes, it’s about a guy but not in any romantic way. So the series is getting closer to passing the Bechdel test. The lack of gender balance does make the story a little cliche at times, and predictable. The ladies need rescuing even when they try to be brave and heroic themselves.
The pace of the action is good, keeping my attention the entire time. I really liked how Flynn’s character develops as we learn more about him. By the end, I could sympathize with him even as I condemned his actions. In fact, I liked him more than Nick. 3.5/5 stars.
The Narration: Craig Bowles is doing a great job as Nick. He has Nick’s moods down to a T – angry Nick, frustrated Nick, contemplative Nick, etc. Bowles had unique voices for all characters though sometimes they blended together when a couple of the guys were chatting together. His one female voice is feminine. When Cassi and her mom are talking together, her mom is a bit weepy and that kept the two voices distinguishable from one another. Pacing is good and there are no tech issues with the recording. 4/5 stars.
I received a free copy of this book. My opinions are 100% my own.
Main Character is interesting but not likable

I can’t help liking Nick, but I also feel very sorry for poor Annalise. The poor girl must be worried to death every time he steps out of the door! It was nice to see her with a bigger part I this story.
The book is brilliantly narrated by Craig Bowles. I have my fingers crossed that there will be a 4th installment!
Beware if you drive a 4x4!

Nick, again is the everyman, with his particular set of skills, (his quoting for every situation being one of them). He doesn't quite take the back seat but his girlfriend Annalise takes more of the front stage as part of the story involves her, and then some! Poor girl is put through the wringer and develops into a very sad story providing some great domestic drama in between the action. This is where Karla excels, frankly, the ability to give us a full range of human emotion and great characters with dialogue, then have them running through a debris-strewn building trying to escape someone or thing.
Graig Bowles has really come into his own in the narration and does an excellent job here of keeping the pace and the quippy (and emotional ) dialogue..long may this continue for the next 5 (or more) novels.
Nail biting, intelligent, actioner with morality
