The Final Heist

Vengeance on the High Seas

By: John Pearce

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Paris is on edge. Notre Dame has burned.
And someone is about to start a war.

Former U.S. Special Forces commander Eddie Grant knows what war
looks like. He's seen it up close — and when a ruthless former KGB
operative sets a plan in motion to ignite a new European conflict,
Eddie understands exactly what's at stake.

Backed by powerful Russian interests, the conspirator intends to
fund a private war using a fortune in Nazi-looted gold — enough to
push Russian influence westward from Ukraine to the German border
and plunge the continent into chaos. Eddie and his allies track down
the bullion, only to have it ripped away at the last moment.

With no backup and no margin for error, they pursue it across the
Mediterranean aboard a rusting World War II Victory Ship, chasing a
heavily laden tugboat toward a final reckoning at sea. What follows
is a running gun battle where failure isn't an option — and survival
is far from guaranteed.

The Final Heist is the concluding novel of the Eddie Grant
Saga — and can be read as a standalone thriller.

Story

The story was great. The writing excellent. The reader was bad. It was way too mechanical and was in the same rhythm all the time. A human reader is much better.
