Description

Navy SEAL James Reece faces a devastating global conspiracy in this high-adrenaline thriller that is ripped from the headlines—from the #1 New York Times bestselling author and “one of the top writers of political thrillers” (Bookreporter), Jack Carr.

In 1980, a freshman congressman was gunned down in Rhode Island, sending shockwaves through Washington that are still reverberating over four decades later.

Now, with the world on the brink of war and a weakened United States facing rampant inflation, political division, and shocking assassinations, a secret cabal of global elites is ready to assume control. And with the world’s most dangerous man locked in solitary confinement, the conspirators believe the final obstacle to complete domination has been eliminated. They’re wrong.

From the firms of Wall Street to the corridors of power in Washington, DC, and Moscow, secrets from the past have the uncanny ability to rise to the surface in the present.

With the odds stacked against him, James Reece is on a mission generations in the making. Unfortunately for his enemies, the former SEAL is not concerned with odds. He is on the warpath. And when James Reece picks up his tomahawk and sniper rifle, no one is out of range.

From “a master novelist” (Ballistic Magazine), “quintessential hero James Reece is exactly what’s needed in today’s chaotic political milieu” (K.J. Howe, author of Skyjack).

Absolutely Thrilling

I was ecstatic when I saw my pre-order had come in! The book DID NOT disappoint, well written, well thought out, and the best conclusion of all the loose threads floating under the storyline of the previous 5 books one could have dreamt of. Carr's ability to write modern-day reality into the fictional pages of a book always makes me smirk. It also makes you think, cannot wait for the next book!

Another great Jack Carr book

Jack Carr has the ability to put you into the scene he describes. The fights, car chases, the darkness of the prison and his internal monologs, all suck you into another classic thriller. Book 7, can't come soon enough!

Very, very entertaining!

The problem with Jack Carr books is, well, nothing. Masterfully developed story line and great characters. I appreciate the depth to which he investigates/researches every element of his books.

Very well narrated, which can be the weak point of many audiobooks - not the case here!

Looking forward to the next installation in the series. Would like it tomorrow, but prepared to wait so you can do your magic with the story!

Incredible as always

The moment Jack Carr releases a novel, I buy it and listen. Now I am going to re listen to the entire series in waiting for the next!

Is Marthas tap still running? (Chapter 30 :p)

UNPUTDOWNABLE!!!!

This is the 6th book on the James Reece series. I would highly suggest listening to the other books before this to get a feel for the characters and his development over the years. He has not changed his moral/ethical code since the beginning however this character has been put through the mill and then some.
The book begins vwith Reece in solitary confinement after the assassination of the president. He doesn’t know where he’s being held. All he knows is that he’s being fed once a day.
Once his close friends get him out and fill him in on current issues and events and of course he finds out that he’s the scapegoat. Reese is now on a mission, he knows this has something to do with his father who discovered corruption many years ago during the Viet Nam era. It appears that the same people who killed Reece’s father and made it look like an accident are involved in some kind of conspiracy today. They want the files his father left him in a safe deposit box. First he’s taken by Russians, he frees himself and takes a Russian for questioning, that man doesn’t free himself. Reece is kidnapped once again and held hostage on a boat with a nuclear weapon set on a timer to detonate. It looks like it might be curtains for our hero, but this is Reece so… there wouldn’t be any more books if he can’t figure out a way out in time.
This book is fast paced and action packed from beginning to end. It is worthy of your time and credit. Jack Carr is certainly up there with the better authors in this genre.
Ray Porter deserves an award for his stellar performance. I always enjoy listening to him.
This book is VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Thank You.

Boring

The book was honestly hard to get through. It reads less like a James Reese story and more like a podcast rant about politics over and over. The world's a mess, we all get it. Fiction to me is a way of escaping it but that's all this book was. it's maybe 20% story and 80% preaching.

Loved it

I absolutely loved this audio book. The story is excellent and the best in the series so far. Being a former navy seal and combat veteran Jack Carr writes some of the most thrilling action scenes out there. On top of that it’s narrated by Ray Porter, who in my opinion is the best there is.

I highly recommend Only The Dead along with the entire Terminal List series. It’s one of my all time favorites.

The Worst

Oh, brother. What a load of puerile, derivative garbage. Listening to this book was like listening to fingernails on a blackboard, with its tedious and repetitive prose, cookie cutter characters, right wing politics, and tired macho characterizations. This book has all the subtlety of a jackhammer and feels like it was written by a Community College Creative Writing dropout. No thanks.

Winning Combination

Jack Carr read by Ray Porter - there is none better. I read and watched the Reese saga of loss, redemption, and righteous revenge. I found myself wanting to believe we, as a country, and as people blessed to live because of the sacrifice and blood shed to preserve our freedoms, can do so much more for our world. Humanity should come before ideology, basic human kindness, acceptance and understanding is waning in todays world and we need to be aware of the evil and destruction mankind is capable of bestowing on all of us. Thank you, Mr Carr for the reminders and the courage to stand strong..

Political rant podcast with fictional characters

Jack Carr is a talented writer and delivered an amazing universe with his prior works. The first three hours of this book is like listening to Tucker Carlson rant and get distracted by a superhero story. Not his best work. Very disappointed with this one and hopefully we will get more world building and story in the next installment.

Ray porter never disappoints. Fantastic actor and narrator.

Really good Russian Propagation

No difference between this book and radical right wing talking points. It’s like the SPIDERMAN meme. Just wish the story was original. Talking points made into a story. USA bad. Russia good.

Relevant truth of today’s reality woven into a novel! Brilliant!

This one was a great addition to the series! I wish it were required reading for all politicians! What a tactful delivery of true world issues and corruption! Jack Carr is speaking to the “group think” “virtue signaling… useful idiots out there!” Instead of being “woke”… “Wake Up!” our nation is being twisted and it’s people manipulated… yet we are told to shut up and given misdirection as the media is utilized to manufacture news. We could really use a real “James Reece” enforcing consequences! Great job Mr. Carr thank you for continuing to serve this country! Great pod cast too!

Jack Carr’s best yet!

This book combines the gruesome violence of Savage son with what is the most intricately designed and insightful conspiracy of his books yet. The arch of James Reece has developed so well over all of his books. Was awesome to hear more about hunting and archery in this one as well. Well done Jack! Only problem is now I have to wait for the next one. Ray Porter remains a master of his class. His performance kept me on my toes the whole book.

Just awful

I have no problem putting up with a thriller author’s take on geopolitics , and I’ve been ok with his previous books. But this one is beyond the pale. Every second chapter is an author’s rant coming through the mouth or mind of an enemy of the US about how stupid we are, how easily our enemies exploit our stupidity, and how the only ones who benefit are our enemies and American defense contractors — who apparently are FAR more evil than Russians or Arab terrorists on their worst days. One rant was ok, a second run through was a little exasperating — OK, OK, we get it! — but the third time through it became clear that this is a boring polemic that Carr has tried to dress up as thriller so people will sit through his rants. Enough, already — I couldn’t get through it. Too bad, because the plot was promising, but I just couldn’t sit through any more of Carr’s lectures about US policy run through the mouth of a Russian or Arab official. It has nothing to do with whether one agrees or disagrees (for the record I agree on some points and not on others); it’s about not wanting to be bludgeoned by repetitive rants from the author when I just wanted an action thriller. A total waste of a credit.
