About this audiobook

The New York Times bestselling, “heart-thumping” (Sean Hannity) espionage thriller from #1 bestselling author Oliver North offers an epic tale of America’s future in the year 2032, about the kidnapping of a prominent physicist who knows too many state secrets for the president’s liking—especially in a re-election year.

The kidnapping of Martin Cohen, an MIT physicist who is privy to sensitive scientific information, from a Houston energy conference by Islamic terrorists sparks a high stakes game of international cat and mouse.

The NRA has been outlawed; the US military has been gutted; Conservative Christians, dubbed ANARKS, have been labeled a global conspiracy and have been largely driven underground. The Caliphate is now a superpower, residing in Israel. The White House is occupied by a repressive Progressive regime, obsessed with the upcoming presidential election.

Peter Newman, security consultant and former decorated war hero, is determined to rescue Cohen. The president, fearful that her reelection will be endangered by the reemergence of terrorism, will stop at nothing to keep the kidnapping a secret. The White House condemns the kidnapping as the work of ANARKS, then has the authorities brand Newman an ANARK. Newman is thus forced to evade the law while also preparing to rescue the kidnap victim with the help of his father—also a decorated war hero—along with a patriotic US senator and a band of special forces operatives.

    Overall I rate Heroes Proved as average, maybe slightly better than that. Even though the plot lacked energy and the central characters failed to engage my interest, Oliver North sends an important message that needs to be taken seriously by all who treasure liberty and Western Civilization. A terrorist attack in Houston in 2032 sees prominent scientist and retired Admiral Martin Cohen kidnapped by Islamist jihadists. Thankfully for Dr. Cohen, he has friends (particularly the Newman family and Senator Mack Caperton) who are more than adequately equipped and motivated to bring him back and do battle against America's enemies -- foreign and domestic. Oliver North shows his expertise in national security and military operations throughout this story. The firefights involving the principle hero, James Newman, pulsated with tension and realism, made credible by the author's personal heroic background under fire. North paints a frightening picture of what America and the world may look like in the near future if the Progressive agenda holds power in the White House. His message needs to be taken seriously as Americans choose leaders who will either continue on the path set by Progressive elites or patriots who will strengthen their country against external threats and enemies of liberty.

    Did not like the narrator. Wish North had done the narration for entire book. Very slow in parts...skipped numerous pages and still knew what was happening.
