About this listen

A space shuttle is destroyed during flight, and the CIA recalls disgraced agent Blaine McCracken to uncover the people responsible. A space shuttle disappears during a routine repair mission, 180 miles above Earth’s surface. An intelligence operative with a dark secret is murdered, his car set ablaze, while he is in the middle of fulfilling a depraved fantasy. And a reporter receives a message from a dying man that suggests the organization responsible may be one of the world’s most prestigious corporations. The government knows just one man who can untangle this mystery: a throwaway on the deactivated list. Exiled to a desk job in Paris for stepping on the wrong toes, Blaine McCracken is a killer—a ruthless pursuer of truth who will let no one, friend or enemy, stand in his way when civilian lives are in danger. McCracken gets results, and his country needs him now more than ever.

Ok but disjointed

I quite like John Land as an author but this hasn’t really aged well. His main character is trying to be a rebellious James Bond type. As too frequent now the narration flips between ok and poor. All said worth a listen but not the best.

A great story and plot

It is a great story and plot and a very believable main character my only criticism is maybe that the reader sometimes gets a near robotic voice which distracts and even irritates but all in all I thouroughly enjoyed it

Great descriptions

Good story. enjoyed it a lot.
the readers voice kept changing speed which was odd and unnecessary. he was trying to create atmosphere but it didn't work. became annoying. would have switched the story off but it was so good I had to tolerate the reader.

Best book Iv read in a while

Loved it all the way through, it’s action packed from start to finish. I though the voice actor made the Indian men sound like there was something wrong with him however I found it quite amusing.

It passed the time but not the best

I enjoyed this up to a point but the story lacks credibility and in places I found the narrator quite irritating. This is of course very personal and someone else may not mind him at all. Altogether it passed a few days' worth of commutes and made them more enjoyable. Would I go back for more? Probably not.
