Adrian Hell faces his next crisis of life head-on as he determines it is time to end his career as an assassin. But before he does, he must draw every last drop of blood from the man who killed his daughter and wife, his beloved family.
The author, James P. Sumner, keeps the intense mystery and action moving at breakneck speed! Sumner has already built the character of Adrian Hill in the previous books of this series, but we, as listeners, are given a deeper understanding of the driving force behind Adrian’s career choice. It is this book that allows us to see beyond the determined, hard-nosed assassin into a more complete picture. The dialogue is riveting as well as realistic for each situation Hill finds himself in. In addition, we are privy to an intense relationship with his best friend and colleague, Josh Winters. The relationship that has developed between these two characters is rich and truly demonstrates a true friendship. The deep seeded anger that has kept Adrian Hill moving forward has been fairly secret until now and this has been handled perfectly!
The narrator, Gary Bennett is fantastic and has further enhanced not only the book but each of the characters. He captures and projects the essence of each character vividly through his unique voice and setting a cadence that is reflective of the situation and characters involved. I have heard many performances by Bennett and he NEVER disappoints!
This is a series that I highly recommend. I was on the edge of my chair the entire book and am hoping for more; I can’t wait to see which path Adrian takes next.
