    About this audiobook

    Officially, Aidan Deveraux is a communications expert for one of the largest financial firms in the world. In his secret life, the former Marine heads the Zermatt Group, a covert team of military and spy agency operatives that search the data stream for troubling events in an increasingly troubled world. When his artificial intelligence system detects that Lauren Pennington-a college junior studying abroad in Germany-has been kidnapped, Aidan immediately sees the bigger picture.

    Silicon Valley: Lauren's father, Vance Pennington, is about to launch a ground-breaking technology with his company NanoUSA-a technology that the Chinese are desperate for. No sooner does Aidan arrive on Vance's doorstep to explain the situation than the father receives a chilling text message: hand over the technology or Lauren will be dead in a week.

    In a globe-spanning chase, Aidan's team cracks levels of high-tech security and complex human mystery with a dogged determination. Drawing in teammates from the Forensic Instincts team (introduced in The Girl Who Disappeared Twice), the Zermatt Group will uncover the Chinese businessmen responsible, find the traitors within NanoUSA who are helping them, and save Lauren from a brutal death.

      This was very well written. I didn't figure it out until the very end. The characters are well rounded and it took place in several places around the world. While this is a continuance of a series - and to get to know the characters it might be best to begin with the first instalment - it would be okay to read this first, as well.
    • 5/5
      Dead in a Week is an explosive story of kidnapping and espionage. The pace gradually builds as we race against the clock along with the Zermatt Group, desperate to save an innocent young woman.The plot is complex, intricate, and highly detailed. I have no doubt that an impressive amount of research went into the writing process, yet the story never feels weighed down by facts. Andrea Kane seamlessly weaves necessary details into the story as we need them.This story is highly plot-driven. Action takes center stage, driving the character interactions and development. I normally prefer character-driven fiction, and sometimes I missed the closer connection to the characters, but overall I was fascinated by the inner workings of the Zermatt Group.This is the seventh Forensic Instincts novel, and the first in the spinoff Zermatt Group Thriller Series. It reads well as a stand-alone.*I received a copy from the author, via Partners in Crime Book Tours, in exchange for my honest review.*
    • 4/5
      I really enjoyed this newest book from author, Andrea Kane. It has a pretty good pacing that stays steady throughout the whole book from beginning to end. Aidan is a strong lead character. Plus, he is intelligent. Which I would expect from a former Marine. While, Aidan may have been the lead character; the other characters did not play second string. They were prominent figures in the story as well. As I briefly hinted prior; there is plenty of action in this story. So the mixture of good characters and a nice storyline makes this book a quick and good read. Fans of this author will be happy with this new book. New readers will as well.
