LUCK DOESN’T LAST FOREVER…

Sometimes A Loved One Has Secrets, That Will Ruin YOUR Life!!!#

This author continues to bring all of us into the lives of two men who do right for everyone, no matter what their actions may entail. Jason and Will, or King and Slater as we have come to call them, have grown so much over the years. Marriage, wives who fill into their lives seamlessly, children...All the while maintaining their self-proclaimed responsibility to remove wrong or evil from their lives and that of the country they love. A part of their team, the man responsible for keeping them unseen through computer skills, has a big secret. And this secret may be the total undoing of all that has come before, if only someone had known, but now it may be too late...
Something left in Massachusetts as King and Slater move to Maine has literally blown up...And of they can't figure out a possible escape, their lives and families will Not be Safe, ever again..
An exciting, intense story that will keep you captivated from start to finish.

The standard remains high

I have read the last 4 books back to back and they have all been extremely well written and more importantly for most of us, action packed
King and Slater this time are out avenging a friend and this time, it's nothing to do with the list or the government.
Tyrel is starting to become more interesting, Slater is trying to raise him so he is independent, Alexis is worried what they might be turning him into
Another reviewer mentioned that the author likes to insert the odd life's lesson into the narrative and this book has quite a few, primarily due to Slater trying to impart his knowledge onto Tyrel. It gets a bit much at times

Manage expectations

This whole series is worthy of anyones time.
Gritty escapism that has you turning page after page as if you are a integral part of the story.
Matt Rogers ability to slip life lessons silently through his storyline as well as entertaining you.
Whether you are road sweeper or a trained soldier our lives are all similar, we manage our expectations and ensure our lives are a success.

Legends, always the best King & Slater

Matt, you get better with King and Slater every time.
Anxious for the next book, as always. This has been mind boggling.
Thanks again for a great read.
Wish it had continued on and on. Violetta, Junior, Alexis and Tyrrell are a great addition since they've come to these stories.

Another awesome read

Like all the King & Slater books, this one is impossible to put down. You’ll never guess the ending or the middle, even if you’ve read all the Matt Rogers books. I don’t know how he keeps coming up with new plots for his books, but I don’t care as long as he keeps them coming!

Another great tale

Who couldn't love King and Slater? Can't wait for the next story. Keep them coming and the minimal sex scenes are much appreciated by the way. That's just not needed in a shooter novel, IMHO.
I've stopped reading other authors after they veered down that path but I recommend your stories to my friends and family.

Thanks again!

A great read

I have read, I believe, all of King and Slater's escapades from the beginning. It's been a few years. Roger's writing skills is really good. We would love to think there are some guys like that fighting for the good of our fellow man. Hopefully Roger's can continue with this group with more good stories to share.

I know a man obsessed must never lose sight of his mortality!

The list is nearly complete, all the names crossed off. But, where is Arnold??? The other 'A' player??? Alonzo regrets...

Amazing again

I absolutely can not get enough of Jason and Will. The stories are all similar, but they are all different enough to keep me coming for more and more. I truly hope this isn't the end.

Fantastic tale

Just when I think it can't get better it does. A fast paced story that has do many unexpected twists and turns in could hardly keep up. I can't wait for the next book.

non stop action. great read.

The only time the fast paced action slows even slightly, it’s to deliver heavy philosophy in how to survive minute to minute deadly events. Lots of fun to read.

true

They are legends and although the solution to this problem seems more far fetched than usual, it will be interesting to see if it works out.

This was another pretty good read in this series. This one was a little weaker than the last couple of stories, in my opinion, but still worth reading.
