About this listen

The trap is set. Failure is not an option.

When government hit man Will Robie is given his next target he knows he’s about to embark on his toughest mission yet. He is tasked with killing one of their own, following evidence to suggest that fellow assassin Jessica Reel has been turned. She’s leaving a trail of death in her wake, including her handler.

The trap is set. To send a killer to catch a killer. But what happens when you can’t trust those who have access to the nation’s most secret intelligence?

Another great story

I really enjoyed the narration but I do wish they wouldn’t put sound effects in. You’re trying to relax listening to your book and then there’s suddenly gunfire. Not very relaxing!!! We can all imagine that and the sound effects detract from, rather than enhance, the overall performance.

Annoying sound effects at times

The additional music and sound effects are Superfluous as the writing is dramatic enough. Otherwise it is a good listen

Great Action Thriller

This is a good action book with a twist - the hero is a trained killer. The author has created a nice complex character and delivers a really good action thriller. I have read both the Will Robie books and enjoyed them both - fast action and clever. If you like Jack Reacher, John Puller, Jason Bourne then I think you will like Will Robie.

The use of two narrators (both really good) works very well.

Enjoyable

I can't say I was gripped by this story but it was a serviceable thriller. The two narrators dud an excellent job. Not sure about the strange sound effects popped in from time to time though!

Loved it

Another gritty Baldacci story. Ron McLarty adds strength to the Will Robie character. Once again the American's ruling the world in their own way. The additional characters are beginning to develop too which adds a nice undertone to the main story. Will continue with this series.
