About this listen

The O’Connell family collides with danger in this shocking new story from NY Times and USA Today best-selling author Lorhainne Eckhart.

Eighteen years ago, Luke O’Connell’s father was there one day, gone the next. His mother sat him and his siblings down and told them their father was gone and that it was just them now, and they wouldn’t be seeing him again. But Luke never believed his father could just walk away from a family he’d said he loved. Now, from his role within a secretive military organization, he uses the intelligence he can access to follow leads on his father, but each is a dead end.

Luke finds himself endlessly embroiled in deadly missions from secret bases, posing as a civilian for front companies, and tracking national enemies to capture or kill. But now, his questions have brought trouble back with him onto US soil, all the way to his hometown - and, ultimately, his quest might put his family in the line of fire.

Wow, this story really packed a punch. I’d been wondering about Luke because what he does has kind of been teased in previous stories but the stuff really hits the fan in this book. John Mo did a great job performing this story and I’m pleased that he will be performing others in this series.

While the first part of this story is about Luke trying to find out about his missing father, the more interesting part is what happen after he and his team follow orders and perform a secret op that most of them aren’t too happy about. While the mission is completed successfully, the ramifications of what they did come back to bite Luke and endanger his family.

I loved every bit of this book!

Interesting story with a cast of characters I didn't know, but it didn't seem to matter. I followed what was going on and while I may have missed some nuances that having heard the other books in the series might have given I still enjoyed the book. John Mo did a good job with the characters.

Enjoyed it

So far this is my favourite book in The O'Connells series. With a gripping plot that was written in such away that it kept me on edge and desperate for more. The Missing Father had a complex intense storyline. Luke's latest mission is not only shocking, but threatens his belief in the forces for which he serves. The shocking twists and turns that follow are completely gripping, right to the end.
John Mo delivers an outstanding performance with great character representation and an intensity that brought the story to life.
