About this listen

Escaping the war was easy until they killed his friend. Now war is all they'll know.

When Frank Sherman was one month into college, the Twin Towers fell. He joined the Army the next day. That was fifteen years ago. He never left the war.

After a brutal and bloody mess in Eastern Europe, they give him leave to visit his only genuine friend in Northern California. Sherman arrives in the small backwater town to find an empty house and a sinking sense of despair. What began as an escape from the violence and blood quickly spirals back to the war. As he uncovers each new link in the mystery, Sherman takes another step back towards the cold-blooded killer he has become.


For a generation left with no choice but the War on Terror, Sherman knows only one truth. It was not his war to start, but it is his to fight.

Fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp, and Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne will enjoy this Frank Sherman thriller.

Great Suspense

Loved the way the story unfolded. I was not able to predict the outcome. Well done!

Virtual Voice Sucks

Virtual voice narrating is so dull. There is NO emphasis/emotion in the reading. So hard to stay engaged with dead narrative.

Narration and story line disappointing

I was excited to listen to the AI generated narration but was incredibly disappointed. The narration was bland at best, monotone and without typical human emotion in the voice. The story line, plot and characters started off okay but rapidly declined. Between the horrible narration and story, I couldn’t finish the book. Grateful it was free.
