On the Run

Ryan Kaine, Book 1

By: Kerry J. Donovan

Narrated by: Gildart Jackson

Ryan Kaine is on the run . . .

A seemingly routine operation ends in tragedy when eighty-three civilians are killed in an aircraft explosion. Kaine, a highly decorated former Royal Marine, becomes the target of a nationwide manhunt; the police want him on terrorism charges, and a sinister organization wants him dead.

In a desperate attempt to prove his innocence, Kaine is forced to rely on two women he barely knows-a country veterinarian who treats his wounds and an IT expert with a dark secret of her own. Kaine must battle his overwhelming guilt, life-threatening injuries and strong moral code as he hunts for the people who turned him into a mass-murderer.

Using his skill in combat, gut instincts, and new-found allies, can Kaine uncover the truth and find redemption before the net finally closes?

If you like Lee Child, Mark Dawson, and Robert Ludlum, you're going to find the Ryan Kaine series compulsively addictive.

Rather unlikely plot rescued by brilliant narration

Starts well but increasingly hard to suspend your disbelief. The brilliant narrator rescues it, his sonorific voice is a pleasure to listen to.

the suspense

nothing. the characters were well developed and it had a very good storyline. The story followed a very path.

Lots of action

This was a fast-paced read with bad guys that you love to hate. I did feel like the main character was a little too naive and trusting, but only when it suited the plot. Overall, I enjoyed it.
