Publisher's summary

1979 Iran: Hours before the fall of the Pahlavi dynasty, eight American-trained SAVAK intelligence officers defect to the United States carrying with them a secret that could one day propel Iran to the rank of superpower.

2018 United States: When another series of peace talks over Iran's nuclear program fails and a rogue Iranian general flees to Greece to meet with a high-ranking CIA officer, the Iranian Supreme Leader, who's determined to redraw the map of the Middle East, orders the execution of an operation decades in the making. Within hours, key elements inside the American and Canadian governments are wiped out. With the stock market in turmoil and evidence showing that the attacks came from within, Mike Walton and his team - all covert counterterrorism assets working for the International Market Stabilization Institute - have 72 hours to find the traitors before the White House orders a massive retaliatory strike that would annihilate any chance of peace in the Middle East.

From the tourist-filled streets of Athens to the high-rises of New York City, Mike Walton will need to cross the line he swore he'd never go over in order to protect the ones he loves. Never have the stakes been higher or the odds against him been so great. With his sanity on the line, and the lives of thousands resting on his shoulders, Mike will do what he must... one bullet at a time.

What a heart stopper!

It was fantastic! A thriller that could be ripped out of our headlines. A Fast paced thriller I high recommend. You won’t be disappointed. I think the authors back ground and in-depth research help make this a 5 star series.

The 3rd Mike Walton

An excellent "Dad's Fiction", in the Tom Clancy style of storytelling.
Thanks to Adam Hanin for the free copy and for his superb narration, of the book.

End of the Mike Walton espionage series?

THE THICK CRIMSON LINE is Book 3 in the Mike Walton series. Each novel has been better than the prior one. Canadian author Simon Gervais is rapidly rising to the elite of action thriller writers. The publisher's summary sets up the novel very well.

Love the Series!

It happened by chance that I discovered this series with Simon Gervias and I am so glad I did. The writing is great, the story line pulls you right in. You can tell Mr. Gervias knows his stuff. His experience is shown through his writing and makes the book that much more enjoyable.
I am glad that audible has stayed with the same reader, he is really good and brings the book to life.
Get the whole series, you will love it!

3rd book in the series

An interesting novel of patriots tired of being scared of terrorism destroying the ones they love and willing to take action to make the world a safer place. I totally enjoyed listening to this audiobook.

Best One Yet

Simon Gervais pens such complex characters...each and everyone grows with the next book. The store line was wonderful and a bit chilling, in the what if. This book is amazing and I can’t believe I have to wait for the next one. Thank You, Simon for Wonderful story and Adam Hanin for and excellent narration.
