INSTANT BESTSELLER

“Take my word for it, James Reece is one rowdy motherf***er. Get ready!” —Chris Pratt, star of the #1 Amazon Prime series The Terminal List

“Jack Carr and his alter-ego protagonist, James Reece, continue to blow me away.” —Mark Greaney, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Mission Critical

In #1 New York Times bestselling author Jack Carr’s follow-up to The Terminal List, former Navy SEAL James Reece’s skill, cunning, and heroism put the US government back in his debt and set him on another path of revenge.

When a string of horrific terrorist attacks plagues the Western world during the holiday season, the broader markets fall into a tailspin. The attacks are being coordinated by a shadowy former Iraqi commando who has disappeared into Europe’s underground. The United States government has an asset who can turn the Iraqi against his masters: James Reece, the most-wanted domestic terrorist alive.

After avenging the deaths of his family and team members, Reece emerges deep in the wilds of Mozambique, protected by the family of his estranged best friend and former SEAL Team member. When a series of events uncovers his whereabouts, the CIA recruits him, using a Presidential pardon for Reece and immunity for the friends who helped him in his mission of vengeance.

Now a reluctant tool of the United States government, Reece travels the globe, targeting terrorist leaders, unraveling a geopolitical conspiracy that exposes a traitorous CIA officer, and uncovering a sinister assassination plot with worldwide repercussions.

A high-intensity roller-coaster race against time, True Believer is “one of this year’s hottest thrillers, and a perfect fit for fans of Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, and Daniel Silva” (The Real Book Spy).

Don't let the "redacted"

whiners stop you from grabbing this listen.


I've had this book in my wish list since it was released.....like a fool...I was put off the listen....by the reviews complaining about the use of the word "redacted".

I thoroughly enjoyed "The Terminal List" and now feel like a fool for not just grabbing this when it hit Audible.

"Maharushdie" The Doctor of Democracy mentioned it a few days ago, said he'd read it,was a great read and paralleled the news of the day.... and well...I thought ...W-T-H...d*mn the redacted...I'm going in...and so glad I did!

It's almost two stories blending into one, the first part is a bit gut wrenching, given the nature of the task Reece's take on. I apricated the fact Mr.Carr approached the need for better ways to control poachers without preaching at me. I don't need a social justice warrior disguised as a fiction writing author.

Mr.Carr doesn't even get close to that, he tells a compelling story about the bush and poachers.

When the story shifts to Reece stepping back into his rouge ex Seal shoes again, the action is non stop, the story at times feels ripped right out of todays headlines.

As far as the word "redacted" being used.....it doesn't ruin the story or the flow of the story at all. Some folks are just wound to tight..LOL.

I.M.O. it added a bit more intrigue to the theme. There's a few times it used...that almost strikes me that the word is being used for a satirical effect over actual need to avoid disclosures of some information.

Mr. Carr knows his stuff....he's not blowing smoke and the knowledge he has of firearms displayed in the story is wide in scope phenomenal.


Ray Porter has a spot on sense of the characters, the dialects, nuances, inflections, he nails it all. His ability to use a feminine lilt without sounding forced is a bonus, easy on the ears.
I feel an addiction coming on!!
Bring on Book 3!!!

Redacted

Very interesting and if the REDACTED editor, narrator or even your proofreaders could have imagined the mounting REDACTED irritation the repeated use of the term would cause the/this reader I am sure the REDACTED idea would have died an REDACTED early and deserved death.

Even better than the first!

Loving this series. True believer was even better than The Terminal List, can’t wait for more.

Redacted

Good book, I have liked both so far, BUT, I get it he knows things we don’t have a “need to know” been there done that. It’s a work of fiction, just make up something. The whole redacted this and redacted paragraph that gets old quick and kills the momentum of the story in my opinion. Other than that I look forward to the next installment

Redacted

Good story, the redacted parts are silly and unnecessary. This is a work of fiction. Settle down
