About this listen

The World Unity Organization is about to sign a peace treaty with the Meso-Arabian Kingdoms to cease military hostility for the first time in joint history. But German Luftwaffe officer Gerhardt Schmidt has other plans. By illegally procuring an ancient Mesopotamian artifact, the Babylonian Mask, he hopes to use the item to assume the identity of his superior in order to command a strike force to destroy the already fragile peace paradigm. With the historical event looming before him, Captain Schmidt has very little time to enact his plan, which is marred by the mask's unconventional protector.

At the same time, Dr. Nina Gould has been admitted to the Heidelberg University Hospital for treatment of her radiation sickness and finds herself in the middle of a manhunt after two security guards and one doctor are slain by an unknown assailant hiding in the hospital building. The incidents are reported on global news and seen by her friends in Scotland. Sam Cleave is approached to cover a simple military corruption story in Germany but soon finds that there is a lot more to the suspected conspiracy than originally thought

The Babylonian Mask leads the listener on a roller-coaster ride in search of a legend. Packed with breathtaking suspense and nerve-shredding action, The Babylonian Mask is a thrilling listen for all fans of action, suspense, and intrigue.

Finally the last one obtained for free, and still feel I was grossly overcharged.
A change on narrator threw me at the beginning, meaning a complete change of voice to all the principal characters. Jonathan Waters certainly gave it his best, putting more effort and life into the narration, unfortunately he got a little carried away with the German accent, so the majority of minor characters all sounded the same.
The story is interesting in subject, but so poorly written as to destroy all value. How the author got published is mystifying, but the lack of improvement throughout makes him one to avoid.

Yet more drivel
