Publisher's summary

The riveting new thriller from Marshall Karp, cocreator and coauthor, with James Patterson, of the #1 New York Times bestselling NYPD Red series

A CARTEL KINGPIN WITH ONE LAST DEADLY SCORE TO SETTLE

They call him el Carnicero—the Butcher. He is the most powerful drug lord on the planet, and when the city of New York incurs his wrath, he utters a single word: “¡Venganza!”

With military precision, he strafes Central Park with 4,000 pounds of cocaine, killing hundreds of innocent people enjoying a summer afternoon.

The only NYPD unit trained to go up against this level of terrorism has been disbanded, but four anonymous billionaires retaliate by recruiting a task force of highly decorated retired cops. Armed with cutting-edge technology, former NYPD captain Danny Corcoran leads his team in a pulse-pounding thriller in their battle to stop the enraged head of a Mexican cartel from raining more death on the city.

Good story poor audio narration

I listen to this on audiobook . The book had two narrators and it really only needed one . The narrator of Danny the main character was horrible . I have listen to a lot of audiobooks and this was by far the worst narration I have listen to . By the time I got to the end I was muscling thru . I have wrote this guys name down just so I know not to listen to him read anything ever again . The story was ok kinda far fetched by entertaining . The characters where not very flushed out and just seem to pop up in the story give you what useful information you need and then pop back out . Overall it was a decent way to pass some hours while working but I won’t be running out to find another book by the author .

A Wild Ride of a Story

Well sometimes the story was a bit predictable predictable, I enjoyed the character development, particularly the I'm a particularly the development of the Big Bad Guy in the story. Fantastic audio book!

Better read than listened to

The narrator sounded like a male version of a valley girl with a bad New York accent. It was laughable at times
I finally bought the kindle version and only used the audio when I was driving or needed to multitask

Snowstorm in August a must listen

I read Snowstorm in August prior to listening to the audible book. The story keeps you going and drawn in with the story line and characters. A drug lord taking revenge on the Big Apple. I enjoyed listening to the book as well, the performance was great with the different voices of the characters as well as the accents used help bring this book to life.

This is a must listen and read, I will certainly be doing both again!

3.5 stars

Enjoyable story with good character development. Nothing earth shattering, but Solid 3.5 stars.
Give it a shot if the synopsis is of interest.
