Publisher's Summary

From the number-one New York Times best-selling coauthor of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels comes an all-new explosive thriller featuring the lethal assassin known as the Gray Man....

Court Gentry was the CIA's best agent. Until the day the agency turned against him and put out a kill-on-sight order. That's when the enigmatic international assassin called the Gray Man was born - and Court has been working for himself ever since.

Now Court is back in Washington, looking for answers. He's determined to find out what happened all those years ago that made the agency turn against him. On his list to interrogate are his former partners and the men who sent him on his last mission. What he doesn't realize is that the questions that arose from that mission are still reverberating in the US intelligence community, and he's stumbled onto a secret that powerful people want kept under wraps. And now they have Court in their crosshairs.

Court Gentry is used to having people on his trail, but this time it's on US soil - the last place he wants to be. Now he'll have to find the answers to his fate while evading capture...and avoiding death.

Best Gray Man book so far!

Reading them in order, this is the best Gray Man novel to date! We finally discover why there is a kill order on the Gray Man! The story is very satisfying and acts as a conclusion to what feels like first major story arc. It's nice and twisty, with a satisfying ending.

Jay Snyder performs a masterful reading, with a good pace that really expresses the urgency in the Gray Man novels, and with several great character voices.

If you're a Gray Man fan, this is a must-read book. If you aren't yet, this book is best appreciated when read in chronological sequence. I highly recommend this audiobook!

Awesome book

I like this, because it kind of explains to why he was on the outs I’m really loving this series. Great writing, and I’ve come to really like the voice of jay snyder. I find he speaks pretty fast so I’ve had to slow it down, but only by .5. But that’s what’s nice about this app is that you have the choice to do that.
