About this audiobook

In New York Times bestselling author Brad Taylor's latest heart-stopping thriller, Pike Logan returns with his most dangerous and personal threat yet: a Taskforce Operator gone rogue. For years, the extralegal counterterrorist unit known as the Taskforce has worked in the shadows, anticipating and preventing attacks around the globe. Created to deal with a terrorist threat that shuns the civilized rule of law, it abandoned the same, operating outside of the US Constitution. Though wildly successful, it was rooted in a fear that the cure could be worse than the disease. And now that fear has come home. A Special Forces soldier is killed on an operation in Afghanistan, and complicit in the attack is a government official of an allied nation. While the US administration wants to forget the casualty, one Taskforce member will not. When he sets out to avenge his brother's death, his actions threaten to not only expose the Taskforce's activities, but also destroy a web of alliances against a greater evil. Pike Logan understands the desire, but also the danger. Brought in to eliminate the risk, he's now forced to choose between his friend and the administration he's sworn to protect, while unbeknownst to either of them, the soldier's death is only the beginning....

    Another good pike Logan book! Knuckles should definitely be the team leader! It’s nice to see that oversight counsel experience what the operators do!

    An excellent outing with Pike Logan and his team chasing terrorists around the globe. The issue of boundaries on 'black ops', the operators, the supervisors, the administrators at all levels is dealt with extensively as well as the toll it takes on those who have to get down and dirty to accomplish the mission. This turns the thriller into something more, a view inside the minds and souls of those who go about the business of keeping America safe "outside the lines". The story runs smoothly with Pike, Jennifer, Knuckles and the newbies facing off against those initiating muslim terrorism. Well-done bu Brad Taylor, who seems as if he might have 'been there, done that' to one extent or another....

    OK - just OK. Not much character development and a lot of references to things that happened in earlier novels in this series. I guess the author assumes anyone reading his books would have read them all. Other, better, authors that write novels with re-occurring characters (Berry, Preston & Child, Silva, and Child) take the time to at least re-aquatint their readers with the characters and their backstories. I might have liked this much more if Taylor had used that approach.
