This audiobook drops you into danger quick and keeps moving from there. Jacob and Jana are chasing the last treasure of the Romans, but this is no simple treasure hunt. The deeper they go across a dangerous Turkish island, the more it becomes a fight for survival wrapped inside a puzzle with deadly consequences.
What stands out strong here is the adventure feel. You get ancient history, hidden secrets, and a setting that adds tension to every step. The island feels rough, isolated, and full of threats, which gives the whole story a sharp edge. It is the kind of backdrop that fits an action thriller just right.
Jacob and Jana make a solid team. Their chemistry keeps things moving, and it is easy to enjoy watching them work through danger while trying to stay ahead of forces closing in around them. The puzzle side of the story adds a nice layer too, giving more than just nonstop action.
As an audiobook, it flows well and keeps your attention. The pace stays steady, the suspense holds up, and it makes for an easy listen when you want something fast and entertaining.
Target Ten is another strong entry in the series with action, mystery, and enough twists to keep you locked in until the end.
I give it a 4 outta 5 catfish!

Jacob and Jana are asked to investigate the theft of an ancient Roman artefact. Their search leads them to Turkey where they encounter an ancient cult with connections to the Order. Another entertaining action-adventure story in this series.

Stupid
Last time I read another Target book. Unreal plot, pathetic writing and a general disappointment. Come on Jack, you are better than this.
