Publisher's Summary

An explosive, high-stakes thriller of espionage and counterterrorism by the Wall Street Journal bestselling authors of Tier One.

A shocking attack in Ankara leaves the US Ambassador to Turkey dead and his chief of staff, Amanda Allen, in the hands of brutal terrorists. But Allen is no ordinary diplomat. She’s undercover CIA. The DNI and the President turn to Ember, America’s premier black-ops task force, and its deadliest weapon, former Tier One Navy SEAL John Dempsey, for help. To find Allen, Ember gets embedded in the most dangerous battlefield on Earth: Syria. But when all communications are disabled by an attack in Turkey, Dempsey finds himself with no backup - a lone shadow warrior racing against time to rescue Allen from her captors before she reaches her breaking point.

What Dempsey doesn’t realize is that Allen is just a pawn in a much larger game. A new player has already been unleashed: a legendary mercenary who matches the American Operator in skill, tactical prowess, and a killer instinct for survival. Now there is far more at stake than a kidnapped CIA agent. Dempsey and his team better get this one right, because the balance of power for the entire Middle East hangs in the balance. And the new threat is far more dangerous than any Dempsey has encountered in his decades waging war against terrorism. Game on.

An excellent addition to the series. The new antagonist is a welcome change. And some of the new supporting characters are alot of fun. I mean really, who doesn't love the idea of a kurdish batman?

PPPPP, (Prior Prep Prevents Poor Performance)

The narration was pretty good, with one glaring exception. If I were recording a book that mentions a name literally dozens of times, as this title mentions Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the president of Turkey, I'd have spent the thirty seconds necessary to learn the correct pronunciation. Every mention of this man's name, incorrectly pronounced, was a clanger for me. I still enjoyed the book, but I could have enjoyed it more.

Very good except one little thing

eradon? really? The narrator cannot pronounce erdagan. He pronounces it era dawn. Once or twice is OK but at least a 100 times making the same mistake over and over. If you can overlook this mistake the story was very well written
