Summary

Canadian billionaire Steven Edmond's grandson was an aid volunteer in the former Yugoslavia. After he was murdered, Edmond sought revenge by hiring an ex-Vietnam special forces agent to hunt the killer down: Cal Dexter, ex-Vietnam Special Forces, the one man who could bring the killer to justice. But what starts as a personal, domestic tragedy soon explodes into a terrifying drama on the centre stage of world terrorism.

Critic reviews

"[N]o page lacks interest and the novel's second half...is pure gold." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Forsyth's extraordinary care with detail, his solid voice, and his exquisite pacing make this a totally engrossing thriller." ( Booklist)

Good easy riveting listen.

Good narration. But the author’s ability to replicate accents is terrible. Other than that not a bad performance.

Trouble trying to put it down

When you start listening, you just need to keep listening, it is trying to find the right moment to put it down. Always a little twist at the very end.
