Russ Thornton is a hard-hitting journalist known for his ability to take on big targets in government and in business. An old flame, now a Capitol Hill staffer, contacts him out of the blue wanting to disclose some top-secret information. But she is gunned down in cold blood, right in front of him. Worse, the killers are concerned about what Thornton knows, and who he may tell. He finds himself in a game of cat-and-mouse, where the stakes are life and death and the surveillance technology is so sophisticated that he wouldn't believe it existed - if it weren't implanted in his own head.
"[Thomson] writes fluid, vivid prose, good dialogue and first-rate action scenes." (The Washington Post)

Guaranteed you won't be able to stop listening!
Mr. Thomson has written a fast paced thriller that keeps you enthralled and entertained until the end. So many books I have listened to have long. slow sections but 7 Grams of Lead kept me entertained until the end.
I have been waiting months for the release of 7 Grams of Lead by Keith Thomson and after reading it, I am not disappointed. In fact, it was one of the best thrillers I have read. I didn’t think it was possible to write a book as good as, or better than, Once a Spy or Twice a Spy, but he has done it with 7 Grams of Lead. My normal reads include Lee Child, C.J. Box, David Baldacci and Vince Flynn (RIP). Mr. Thomson can hang in there with any of them delivering a fast paced, well researched, can’t put it down, page turner!
His books carry a common theme of the sympathetic misfit the reader can’t help but love. The main character, a blogger and journalist, gets too close to a secret that could mean the end of not only his own life, but the lives of millions and so soon becomes a target himself; he also becomes the unexpected hero. I won’t give away too much because it would eliminate the wonderful surprises in store for anyone smart enough to buy the book except to say it will probably be the best book you will read this year.
I especially enjoyed the scene where the lead characters escaped captivity by boat.
I did, in fact, listen to it in one sitting. I could not turn it off finding myself right there in the story occupying a front seat to all the action!
I cannot recommend this book strongly enough. A great escape from it all! Good listening to you.
