Slow start but good story
Revisado: 07-13-21
The book has a slow start but once into the book it is hard to stop listening to. It has two good aspects, 1) it give you insite into the turmoil in Africa and 2) If you like the complexity of organized basketball and the process of moving up the ladder it is interesting.

Historia
When editor Susan Ryeland is given the manuscript of Alan Conway's latest novel, she has no reason to think it will be much different from any of his others. After working with the best-selling crime writer for years, she's intimately familiar with his detective, Atticus Pünd, who solves mysteries disturbing sleepy English villages. An homage to queens of classic British crime such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers, Alan's traditional formula has proved hugely successful.

Difficult
Revisado: 02-27-21
This is a very difficult book to listen to. I have listened to over 400 books on audible and finished all but 3-4 of them. I am going to give up this book. Reasons: 1) It is very difficult to listen to a book that has more characters you can keep up with. If you are reading it, you can pause and figure out who they are, 2) The plot is complicated and difficult to follow. 3) it is a long book so the fustration gets to you.

Historia
Meet Ove. He’s a curmudgeon—the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. But behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove’s mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul.

Difficult to follow
Revisado: 05-17-20
I have listened to over 450 Audible books and the was the most difficult to follow.. I have listened to over 450 Audible books and this was the most difficult to follow. First it was based on gaming and that is not my interest. I had difficult following the plot and especially the large number of characters who are sometimes call by their first names and other times by their last names. When you read a book, you have time to recall the individuals, but audio does not give you that time. Second There is a lot of minutiae in the book, which has nothing to do with the plot. Lastly I thought the story was not that interesting.

Fresh off his first mission back with the CIA, Court Gentry secures what seems like a cut-and-dried contract job: A group of expats in Paris hires him to kidnap the mistress of Syrian dictator Ahmed Azzam to get intel that could destabilize Azzam's regime. Court delivers Bianca Medina to the rebels, but his job doesn't end there. She soon reveals that she has given birth to a son, the only heir to Azzam's rule - and a potent threat to the Syrian president's powerful wife. Now, to get Bianca's cooperation, Court must bring her son out of Syria alive.

Slow and confusing start
Revisado: 12-24-19
It takes about 25% of the book to understand where the plot is going. Once identified then then an enjoyable book. Not on the same level as others I have read or listened to in the Gray man series.

Historia
The Syrian plane disintegrated, evaporating in a gush of silvery smoke, rent through with bright white lightning, and the ejecting pilot's body was blown clear of the fuselage. For an instant it was outlined ahead of David's screen, cruciform in shape with arms and legs thrown wide, the helmet still on the head, and the clothing ballooning in the rush of air.

An interesting Wilbur Smith novelI
Revisado: 10-31-19
I have read or listened to nearly all of Wilbur Smith's books and the is among those in the 5 star group. It is an interesting story with a little different ploy location, easy to follow and difficult to put down.

Historia
William Warwick has always wanted to be a detective, and decides, much to his father’s dismay, that rather than become a lawyer like his father, Sir Julian Warwick QC, and his sister, Grace, he will join London’s Metropolitan Police Force. After graduating from university, William begins a career that will define his life: from his early months on the beat under the watchful eye of his first mentor, Constable Fred Yates, to his first high-stakes case as a fledgling detective in Scotland Yard’s arts and antiquities squad.

Revisado: 09-22-19
Jeffrey Archer's books are always enjoyable, as I have either read or listen to most of them. The plot was very interesting and well developed over the course of the book. The Narration was good and had the English accent. I have recommended the book to a couple of friend.

not the best
Revisado: 09-22-19
I probably listened to nearly 500 books on Audible and this is the second book I could not finish. I was difficult to follow plot and sort out the characters. I have read and listened to previous book by Barry Eisler and this one was a disappointment.

Historia
From Martin Clark - praised by Entertainment Weekly as "our best legal-thriller writer" - comes a wickedly clever, tenderhearted, and intricately plotted novel about a hard-luck lawyer's refusal to concede defeat, even as fate, the court system, and a gang of untouchable con artists conspire against him.

Revisado: 08-21-19
One of the disadvantages of a book on tape is keeping up with all the characters. In the last chapter it was very difficult to follow the resolution of the plot/story. The first 95% was very enjoyable. David Aaron Baker. produced an excellent audio.
