Meh. Boring and repetitive.
Revisado: 04-13-25
First third of the book is an explanation of why they wrote the book. Then it’s 2 ultra gung-ho guys trying to shoehorn every civilian problem into a military solution.
PS: not a left wing review. Pro-military, pro USA; I just don’t like ultra-cocky people.

Can’t be same author as Joe Pickett. Multiple incredible coincidences. Characters “feel” who the bad guys are, and are never wrong 🙄

Historia
The campaign of destruction that Axel Soledad and Dallas Cates wreaked on Nate Romanowski and Joe Pickett left both men in tatters, especially Nate, who lost almost everything. Wondering if the civilized life left him vulnerable to attack, Nate dropped off the grid with his falcons in tow to prepare for vengeance. When Joe gets a call from the governor asking for help finding his son-in-law, who has gone missing in the Sierra Madre mountain range, he enlists the help of a local, a rookie game warden named Susan Kany.

Having the usual characters come out in a different order was a good change of pace. Probably will get criticized for political views, but the facts are damn accurate.

Good, but complicated
Revisado: 12-30-24
Great narrator. Story has a double plot that is understandable individually, but when both plots are mixed up becomes confusing. Almost like they thought complicated = interesting, more complicated = more interesting. There’s a point that equation stops being enjoyable…

Short but good.
Revisado: 12-27-24
A refreshing change from 10 to 30 hour novels.
When I saw the short duration, I thought it probably was not long enough to develop a plot, but the format worked out fine.

Stupid. No wonder it’s free…
Revisado: 12-26-24
A “mystery” where all the characters have all the characteristics of the perpetrator. Instead of a clue here, and a clue there, it’s all the same clues, all the time, on all the possible suspects. A 12 year old could have done that. On top of that dumb, unlikely decisions throughout. Don’t waste your time

Pushes the limits of "Suspension of Disbelief"
Revisado: 12-15-24
Pretty good overall. Very good narration. However the author builds up one specific character as "very smart" and then with about 1 hour to go, the same character (and another) does something so dumb, and so out of character that it snaps you out of a pretty good story and makes you think "this is a dumb novel". After that, it gets pretty good again.
It's as if you were looking at a very professional rendition of the Nutcracker ballet for 6 hours, then a ballerina that can't dance comes out for a short bit, then it gets good again.

Thought I would’ve liked it more given its fame. Very well written, but 39 hours of women’s sensibilities was almost impossible to finish

Historia
Valdez Jones VIII calls himself Wrecker because his great-great-great-great-great-grandfather salvaged shipwrecks for a living. So is it destiny, irony, or just bad luck when Wrecker comes across a speedboat that has run hard aground on a sand flat? The men in the boat don't want Wrecker to call for help—in fact, they'll pay him to forget he ever saw them. Wrecker would be happy to forget, but he keeps seeing these men all over Key West—at the marina, even in the cemetery. And now they want more than his silence—they want a lookout.

Woke Huck Finn style copy.
Revisado: 03-30-24
Funny how, in the story, a hack composer writes a poorly thought out song that combines the name of two popular songs to name his own song. Similar with this audiobook. It uses all the pandemic propaganda to virtue signal all the pandemic "information" that has systematically been proven incorrect. If they would have taken, even a slightly more neutral position, I wouldn't have returned the book. Feel sorry for the narrator. He was pretty good.
