Resumen del Editor

Sustained by a deep religious faith, Jason Harrow has built a stable family and become a pillar of principle and patriotism in the Midwest. Then the phone rings, and his past is on the other end of the line. A woman with whom he once shared a life of violence and desire claims her daughter is missing - and Jason is the one man who can find her.

Returning to New York City, Jason finds himself entangled in a murderous conspiracy only he can see and only he can stop - a plot that bizarrely links his private passions to the turmoil of a world at war.

Hunted by terrorists and by the police, Jason has only hours to unravel an ex-lover's lies and face the unbearable truth: In order to prevent a savage attack on his country, he's going to have to risk his decency, his sanity, and his life.

Written in 2008 but fits perfectly in 2023

I was surprised when I realized this was written in 2008, it’s more true today then ever. However, the sexual crassness of the main character was off putting and unnecessary and disappointing given the Christian faith of the character. I suppose as a woman I find it more vulgar than a man would. And I thought the whole theme was a little overstated given current events but it wasn’t until the very end that I knew it was written 15 years ago!!

Loved it

I love this book. it's really well written. just like all of his other books.

Great book

This is my 2nd Klavan book in a week. I listen to the audio books because I can listen while operating lawn maintenance business. This one just like the other (the great good thing) I just couldn't seem to put down. I am hooked and will continue listening to the Klavan library.

gave it another listen and liked it better

I dont typically read or listen to the same book twice, but I vaguely remembered some of the points being made tie into today's media so I gave it another listen. I recaled when hearing it for the first time thinking the media sin was a bit much, but given way I know today it made it more believable.

Rock Auto

Andrew Klavan has a way of telling a story, that makes you feel like it could be you going through what the protagonist is. Read the book.

Excellent on all fronts.

Tight story, full of surprises. Love the raw honesty of the main character. Also love to hear Klavan read his own stories. Nobody does it better.

great story

great story as is expected from the bald great one, leader of the shiny pate.

Read this book!

Masterfully constructed. A true work of art expressing the absurdity and danger of leftist modern anti western philosophy in the face of a true and present Evil.

great but definitely not pg

narrator was great story was interesting but there was too much explicit stuff to be confortable

Going back to clean your mother's room gets messy!

A middle-aged conservative fantasy action thriller wherein the hero gets to crack lefty proffesor's knee caps because...Islam, attractive young submissive girls give older married men their number and address because...shiny head sex appeal, praying gives you the answers because...Jesus, and Captain Kirk saves the day because...'Murica'. Witty and emotional but mostly tickety-boo; trigger warning this is an Andrew Klavan novel.
