One Rough Man

Pike Logan/Taskforce, Book 1

By: Brad Taylor

Narrated by: Neil Kaplan, JD Jackson

The first Pike Logan novel from NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author BRAD TAYLOR.

They call it the Taskforce. Commissioned at the highest level of the U.S. government. Protected from the prying eyes of Congress and the media. Designed to operate outside the bounds of U.S. law. Trained to exist on the ragged edge of human capability.

Pike Logan was the most successful operator on the Taskforce, his instincts and talents unrivalled–until personal tragedy permanently altered his outlook on the world. Pike knows what the rest of the country might not want to admit: The real threat isn't from any nation, any government, any terrorist group. The real threat is one or two men, controlled by ideology, operating independently, in possession of a powerful weapon.

Buried in a stack of intercepted chatter is evidence of two such men. The transcripts are scheduled for analysis in three months. The attack is mere days away. It is their bad luck that they're about to cross paths with Pike Logan. Because Pike Logan has nothing left to lose.

Standard meme book, avoid.

Standard "troubled badass special forces who can't keep home-work balance but can safe the world from even his compromised government" dream story. The inconsistencies and exaggerations were too much for me and I love me some Brad Thor quite a bit.
