Heavy-handed New York homicide detective Gabriel de Sade has a good record of dealing with murder suspects. Too good! His chiefs lend him to the CIA. Faith Ward, de Sade’s former lover has disappeared. His former Special Forces partner, Jonas Savage, teams up to help. They travel to Italy, and fight their way through the Mafia, but the trail leads them to Jerusalem for the final bloody showdown.
Audiobook: I was as entertained by this book as much as the first book in the series. The almost non-stop action kept my attention, plus I enjoyed all the twists which added to the story's excitement. I admired Gabriel de Sade's determined character which managed to power through all obstacles. I liked Jonas Savage's personality and his ability to arrange for materials in the operation. I appreciated the quotes regarding chess which I thought profound. I thought Tim Welch's narration was great as his performance kept my attention. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
