An Assassin for the New Templars

By: D. C. Stansfield

Narrated by: Paul Jenkins

He tried to think how many men he had killed and could not remember. "How many do you need to kill before you lose count?" he wondered.

Sir Stephen Mendal, head of MI6, looked up from the report. Apparently an unknown secret organization had been recruiting ex-MI6 agents, specifically those that specialized in "wet work", the nasty side of the business. One of these old employees had just been shot dead by the authorities whilst robbing a bank in Switzerland.

He had to know more. What was this organization up to, and why employ such specialists? He decided he needed a spy.

On his desk were a number of manila folders all marked "Top Secret" in thick red ink. He went through each of them in detail before selecting one, Paul Bradley's, a merciless killer with innumerable hits to his credit. A lonely, hard, clever man coming to the end of his days in the field. Perfect, thought Mendal. But at this time in his life, would Bradley be willing to go it alone, to play the sacrificial lamb? If not, then perhaps he should just throw him to the wolves and see what happens.

So begins the hunt for the New Templars, a ruthless organization with seemingly unlimited resources out to change the world as we know it.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Pleasantly surprised

Much better than anticipated. A very timely story given what’s going on in the US. So much history has been removed from our public education as it becomes indoctrination. Grim reminders are given appropriate space here of what happens when voters buy into the utopian dream of greater government that leads to the demise of individual freedoms and opportunities. Very pleased with Mr. Stansfield’s writing and lessons he shares!

A great adventure/espionage story

I really enjoyed this book. I thought the author did a great job of putting together a fun action/adventure/espionage story. The pacing was excellent and the narration was solid. All in all, a really entertaining book.

Good Story

I enjoyed listening to this thriller with all of its twists. I'm not that knowledgeable of the workings of MI-6, but this book pulled me in. I found some of the machinations to be surprising. The imagery in the story was great, and I could envision so much. I loved the ending on this book. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. Both the author and narrator were new to me, and I would listen to more of their work.
