Summary

The past doesn't forgive. The past doesn't forget. And it knows where to find you.

Rob Rennie's life hasn't gotten any quieter since he left the Royal Marines and teamed up with an American vet, Mike Brayne. Mike - eccentric, idealistic, and enormously wealthy - can't resist righting wrongs. He's rescued a genetically engineered teenager on the run from an experimental defense program and brought down the head of the biotech corporation hunting the boy, and now he's waiting for the company to make another move, if it dares. He'll kill to protect the kid if need be.

But Rob lives by the maxim that there's no such thing as over. And something's certainly not over for him. An unknown, unseen enemy is stalking him, with tragic consequences for his son and ex-wife. As Rob and Mike close ranks to protect their families, they find themselves up against industrial espionage, two warring scientists, and a blood feud that won't end until somebody pays with their life.

The buried past has been biding its time to explode beneath them. Now, their best hope of putting it to rest forever could lie in the unique genetic skills of a runaway teenager.

Thoroughly enjoyable listen

Great part 2 of the story, it would have been great for the main subject of both books to have concluded with more detail and excitement. Very grateful that other storylines ramped up the tension. Still great storylines overall. Brilliant original ideas, wish there was a part three!

Great story, good voice characterizations

I loved the first book. I enjoyed this one too, but missed Euan Morton reading it, as it took a while to get used to the new character voicings. The story is excellent though, now got to wait for book 3 (?)

Entertaining and engrossing

An easy listen and enjoyable story. Well written creative work with likable, relatable characters. Kept me intriqued to (metophorically) turn the page.

Really good sequel

This is a very good follow up with an intricate cast of characters and a rich weaving story line. Highly recommended.
