Publisher's summary

The past comes back to haunt Sean Dillon and his colleagues, as the New York Times best-selling master of suspense returns with a knife-edge story of terrorism, revenge, and a very old nemesis.

In the past few years, the killing and capture of many Al-Qaeda leaders has left the terrorist organization wounded - but by no means dead. And they intend to prove it.

On a dark summer night, two Chechen mercenaries emerge from the waters off Nantucket to kill a high-value target, the former president of the United States, Jake Cazalet. Unfortunately for them, Cazalet has guests with him, including black ops specialist Sean Dillon and his colleague, Afghan war hero Captain Sara Gideon.

The Chechens do not survive the night, but Dillon is curious as to how they even got on the island. What he discovers sends a chill through his bones - a name from very far back in Dillon’s past. If this man is working with the terrorists now, the assassination attempt is only the beginning - and the next time, the results might be much, much different.

This audiobook was just okay. The story line was predictale and coul have been better. These books are also very short when compared to most books.

HARD TIME

I think I could have followed this book better had I actually read it. I found myself getting lost with regards to who was who as the accents made every character sound the same.

Awesome

This was another great book in the Sean Dillon series. It brought back some beloved characters and we get get some new characters that are ready to join in the series. All in all I had a great time listening.

Good guys favored all the way.

All the plot twists - if you can call them that, involved the bad guys becoming good guys or the good guys happening to be in the right place at the right time or some other nonsense.

Higgins does it again.

I like the way that Higgins has introduced new members of the PM's private army over the last few books. they bring a variety of talents and backgrounds into the plots that keeps you guessing right up to the end as to results. Higgins had formed a modern day avengers and I cannot wait for the movie. But who will play Sean.
