A top Russian intelligence agent has defected to the West, and the only man with whom he will speak is Kyle Swanson, who busted him out of the US Marine Corps Scout/Sniper School years ago. The defector proves to be an Edward Snowden-type gold mine of amazing secrets about the when, where, and how of President Vladimir Pushkin's next grab for lost Soviet territory.

But Swanson, now a special contractor with the CIA, soon begins to believe that it is all fool's gold being sprinkled by Moscow to ignite an open military fight with NATO and the United States. Using his own deadly methods, the sniper sets out to find the truth, but to slow him down the Russians kidnap Swanson's beautiful friend, Calico, the CIA station chief in Estonia.

From Italy to the Arctic Circle, Kyle Swanson is on the hunt, convinced that the defector actually is running a complex plot to hand Russia a kingdom in the north. But Swanson seems always to be a step behind, because there is a traitor within his own chain of command. To stop the madness, Swanson must deliver a kill shot 100 miles away from a border bridge in Estonia, where a Russian army waits on the far shore as a government official crosses over with an invitation to invade.

As many others have said, the narrator is not Kyle Swanson. Storyline was good but narrator missed the mark which detracts from the overall entertainment.

Not Kyle Swanson

The original reader of these books was excellent as such, this reader had big shoes to fill. Unfortunately, he did not successfully rival his predecessor.
As far as the story goes, I found myself often questioning Kyle’s actions. Surely this is not the same Kyle we’ve seen before? Perhaps, in older age, he’s giving up on some of his harder lines. None the less, worth the time to listen though certainly will not be be going back for a second dose.

Outstanding

I never write reviews, but I have to say that the voice acting for this book was absolutely unforgivable. The reader should avoid attempting any kind of accent at all because his comically awful attempts not only ruined the listening experience, buy also robbed the story of any severity or seriousness it might have otherwise had.

Unbelievably Bad Voice Acting

I did not enjoy Scott Sowers narration, story was ok. I’m a huge fan of this series and have
Listened to them all but this one was a disappointment primarily due to the poor voices of Scott Sowers (sorry Scott!)

Being back the ok’d narrator
