A GRIPPING THRILLER FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR

‘Deadly conspiracies, bone-crunching action and a tormented hero with a heart . . . packs a real punch’ Andy McDermott

A sunken secret. A missing woman. A race against time.

Former SAS major Ben Hope is relaxing at his home in Normandy when he hears the worst news of his life. His ex-girlfriend Dr Brooke Marcel has been kidnapped.

Racing against the clock, Ben’s frantic search for Brooke leads him from Ireland to the Spanish mountains and the rainforests of Peru.

What is the mysterious link between the kidnapping, the salvage of a sunken 16th-century Spanish warship and the secret activities of its wealthy discoverer?

As the trail of wreckage and mayhem intensifies, Ben soon uncovers a web of intrigue, corruption and brutal murder.
But will he be too late to find Brooke alive?

The Ben Hope series is a must-listen for fans of Dan Brown, Lee Child and Mark Dawson. Join the millions of fans who get breathless with anticipation when the countdown to a new Ben Hope thriller begins…

Whilst the Ben Hope thrillers can be enjoyed in any order, this is the eighth book in the series.

Well I love the Ben hope stories and this is no disappointment but WHO ON EARTH auditioned Jack Hawkins as the narrator. His performance on the previous book was barely tolerable but this is even worse!!! He has, completely randomly, given one of the key characters “Brooke” an American accent!? She isnt American and wasn’t American in the preceding book that he also performed (really badly did I mention that?) . His speech is unclear and his “voices” terrible and too similar. Long conversations between two characters get confusing and occasionally require replaying to follow who is actually speaking. If he reads another book I will quit the series. It’s a shame as the stories are great.

Oh dear Jack

Scott Mariani does keep up his standard of tense tales. They do tend to be rather far fetched but written well enough so that one gets drawn in and is carried along with the tension.

Enjoyable!
