About this listen
Barely into his 20s and already a highly decorated military hero, Army Special Forces veteran Blake Kershaw is now going to college, studying while recuperating from wounds received in Afghanistan, and planning to reenter the army as an officer after graduation. But life tosses Blake a curve when his country approaches him about using his special skills to avert a terrorist plot to detonate a nuclear device in a major eastern US city. To do that, he would need to become an operative deep within al-Qaeda’s innermost circles—changing his entire identity, even his face. A true patriot, Blake makes the journey into a shadow world that leaves friends, family, and, seemingly, even God far behind. But when things go terribly wrong, and his country looks set to destroy him, it is God and God’s people who intervene.

Good listen
Good listen. Plot was interesting, almost did the whole book in one sitting. I’d advise the narrator to ditch the English accents though. That was the most gentrified scouser I’ve ever heard.

Compelling and unusual
A gripping story. And it is unusual to have an explicitly Christian hero and no gratuitous bad language. A good book for its genre. Helped me get through a painful, sleepless night.

Interesting perspective
A good story from an unusual perspective, Not just demons and angels. Well visualized without being too descriptive. Being new to fiction I am not best placed to comment more but I did enjoy it.

Great Story
I really enjoyed this book. Criticism of the accents I think is over the top. Yes a few accents were bad but such a minimal part of the book they have no relevance.
Definitely worth a listen

Danger Close - Exceptional!
The storyline is excellent, drawing together two seemingly unrelated stories with great skill. However, the narration is amongst the very best I’ve listened to, and I’ve listened to hundreds of books.
The combination of the fine story and the outstanding narration makes exceptionally good listening if you enjoy this genre.

I hope this is the start for Blake
A good tale well told. However, are terrorists that easily duped? and is there that degree of co operation in the "Special relationship" between the UK and US services?.
