Resumen del Editor

A sudden family death and an old nemesis bring retired agent Mac Dekker in from the cold in this alpine thriller from New York Times bestselling author Christopher Reich.

Robbie Steinhardt lives a peaceful life. A fixture of his small alpine village, he tends cattle, minds his own business, and doesn’t dwell on his former life and the family and lover he left behind—back when he was Mac Dekker, CIA.

But when he learns his son Will died following in his footsteps, he needs answers. What mission took Will up into the alpine heights, and why is Ilya Ivashka on the same trail? Ilya—his close friend, his rival in love. Ilya, who framed Mac for treason and sent him into hiding.

Wiping away the years, Mac returns to the field to find the secrets Will hid and finds himself facing the Herculean task of stopping a terrorist plot that threatens thousands. But in a field of double agents, who can he trust?

Fun Spy Story

I’ve read a lot of Christophers stories and this one of his best. Look forward to more in the series nice spy and mountain climbing story. Love the reader and always look forward to his work

Well Written Thriller

Like the most well written spy thriller novels, you can’t take your ear buds out till the very end. I’ve read all of this author’s books and this is his best.

Fantastic!

Really, really enjoyed this book. Great plot, suspense, and a mostly happy ending. Can't wait for the next one! The narration was splendid.

What I liked most…

The story line was excellent and the vocalist did a great job of reading the story.

The book cover says it all!

Interesting plot with a lot of twists and turns. At the heart love of a women tares through the fibre of a life time friendship.

Not one of Reich’s better…

The book was entertaining and fast moving from time to time. Characters and character development was poor, slow,and sloppy.

The book didn’t really gain any inertia until about the last 30 to 35% of the book and that would’ve been a good place to start the book — you could’ve thrown the first nine hours out and it wouldn’t have really taken away from the story.

This book is a week prequel to the new character and with this, has a foundation that can’t have much but a poor sequel built upon it. This is disappointing.

I must praise Christopher Reich getting more correct about weapons. He correctly identified the changing of a magazine when reloading. However, half a chapter later, he referred to it as a clip, which is incorrect. But one out of two ain’t bad.


I pray Mr. Reich takes his level back up to the book that he’s had in other series

Action Packed Matterhorn Spy Thriller

Having recently visited Zermatt, I could not wait to listen to this novel and it never disappointed me. Believable plot and characters with plenty of interesting twists and action. The narration matched the quality of the story. Hope you enjoy it too.

Great Story, Characters and Narration!

Great story with twists and turns. Narrator is, as usual, terrific. Well worth the read if adventure and intrigue are your thing.

Engaging spy thriller

Christopher Reich's "Matterhorn" is an engaging spy thriller that kept me hooked from beginning to end. Although the book was a bit long, it remained interesting enough to hold my attention. The action-packed finale had me completely absorbed, and I thoroughly enjoyed this spy story. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

Fast paced interesting story

Great narration and story. I’ll be looking for more books by this author. Superb writing.
