Summary

From the 11th storey of a Los Angeles high-rise, Nate looks out on the city - the traffic, the trees and the beach beyond. He breathes deeply. And then he moves one foot off the ledge and into thin air. But before he can jump, gunshots ring out from within the building. A robbery is in progress. And Nate, with nothing to lose but the life he was about to give up, decides to intervene. What happens next plunges Nate into mortal danger...and reunites him with the family he hasn't known for years - a family he will do anything to protect.

Packed with twists and suspense, hurtling forward at relentless speed, The Survivor is a gripping, unforgettable story of sacrifice, redemption and heroism.

As a thriller it's an emotional rollercoaster.

Tears in my eyes driving up the M5 wasn't a good idea but this most unusual tale was worthy of the long distance listen. I looked forward to the 5 hour return for the second part of the story.
I'm not giving anything away but battling a serious illness while also fighting to save his family from the eastern block gangsters led to a rollercoaster of emotion as you were with Nate every step. magnificent as always, Gregg.

Another nail biting story from Gregg Hurwitz

A great and original story that makes you bond with the principle character, with some brilliant twists to its bitter sweet ending.

SUPERB!

Thrilling and unable to put down

I had this book on my wishlist for a long while before finally giving it's chance. It was brilliantly read as always by Jeff Harding, and I had to keep listening.

Good thriller

This was my first Greg Hurwitz book and I'm very impressed so I will definitely go find some more of his work to download, action packed and developed the characters somewhat more than other writers of the same genre this story reminds me somewhat of some of Blake Russell's books

He didn't...

A cracking story, kept me gripped throughout, so many twists and turns. Narrated brilliantly, and the story flows really well.
