Publisher's summary

Three Alex Hawke novellas never before on audio.

Crash Dive: Alex Hawke is in hostile foreign waters, flying an F-16 Viper at nearly the speed of sound, at an altitude no sane man would dare, on a highly covert mission. His task is simple: enter another nation’s airspace undetected, meet a secret contact, and find a way to avert a global war.

What Comes Around: An esteemed former CIA director dies off the coast of Maine. Another senior CIA officer is found dead of a “heart attack” in a posh Paris hotel. Counterspy Alex Hawke and his friend Ambrose Congreve think this could be more than coincidence. Hawke discovers that the victims are connected through one man: Spider Payne, a rogue intelligence officer whose dangerous exploits got him barred from the CIA.

White Death: A powerful Swiss banker is found dead, frozen at the base of a soaring Alp. When a second man, the head of a rival banking empire, is found dead deep inside a mountain cave, MI6 suspects a bizarre conspiracy. Vast sums may have been plundered from the Queen of England’s accounts. The British royal family’s centuries-old Swiss bank holdings are at risk, shaking the foundations of Her Majesty’s government and the monarchy itself.

2 good, 1 bad

The first two stories are well done but the last one is all talk and no action, and boring talk at that.

Repeat x 3!

The 3 Alex Hawke novellas within this audiobook are merely shortened portions of previous Hawke adventures.
The last being the novel were Alex goes ice-climbing in the Alps.
So true Hawke devotees will have to wait for the next full length novels to be published. I'll save you a chair.

Misleading...

All three of these stories seen familiar. The second story ''What Comes Around'' is from the novel ''Patriot''. I wonder if anyone can identify where the other two are from?

RIP OFF

This is just stories from other books. I feel cheated and when I tried to return it they said I could not. Very bad for business. I have bought over a 100 books and really think they need to change the return policy.

What a waste of time

The first story starts and stops and you still don’t know why except Alex saves the world. The second story sounds familiar from a previous book and the third one is flat out boring. If I had not read the other books in the series I would not buy another. John Shea was as usual very good.

Only one short story.

Only one short story, other two are just edits of other books. Glad I just lost a credit, not money. I am think of returning audio book.
