About this listen
“Sleeping Bear is…one of those rare novels that keeps getting better and better and better. Remember the author’s name - Connor Sullivan.” (James Patterson)
A former Army veteran seeking solitude in the Alaskan wilderness after her husband’s death finds herself a pawn in a deadly game with Russia in this white-knuckled and “heart-stopping thrill ride” (Chris Hauty, author of Deep State).
After her young husband’s untimely death, Army veteran Cassie Gale decides to take a few days of solitude in the Alaskan wilderness before she starts her new job. But when she fails to show up on her first day and her dog is discovered injured at her wrecked campsite, her father knows that this is much more than a camping trip gone awry.
As it turns out, Cassie’s not the first person to disappear without a trace in Alaska’s northern interior. Bears. Wolves. Avalanches. Frostbite. Starvation. There are many ways to die in here. But not all disappearances can be explained. Cassie’s is one of them, along with a number of other outdoor enthusiasts who have vanished in recent years.
Regaining consciousness in a Russian prison, Cassie finds herself trapped in a system designed to ensure that no one ever escapes alive. It will require all her grit and skills to survive. Meanwhile, her father rushes to outrun the clock, scouring thousands of acres, only to realize she’s been taken by a nefarious adversary - one with the power of the Eastern Bloc behind it. Ties to his past life, one full of secrets, threaten to surface. He knows there’s a price to be paid, but he’s determined it won’t be his daughter.
Timely, electrifying, and perfect for fans of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor, “Sleeping Bear clamps you in its jaws and doesn’t let go. A fierce, relentless beast of a novel” (Tess Gerritsen, New York Times bestselling author).

A disappointing read
The story suffers from a weak plot that lacks credibility. The dialogue often appears juvenile, in spite of the narrator’s best attempts. I was thankful when the book ended, allowing me to move on to something more worthwhile. I decided to purchase the book with my Amazon credit based on the recommendation of James Patterson. This will be the last time I take a recommendation by Patterson seriously. Rather than the book getting better and better, (Patterson's claim), I found the book to get worse and worse as it went on. Patterson has recommended to remember the authors name. This I shall do, as I do not wish to read anything further by him.

Nothing to write home about
Honestly, that's the theme of the book as a whole. The characters are illogically flawed, as characters that are supposed to be competent in certain areas show shockingly little competence in those areas. The lack of intelligence displayed by the main characters, while in emotional duress, are so oversold that the lack of control makes their emotions almost unbelievable. They feel fake.
There is a shocking lack of relevance in the book. An example is the insistence of certain characters using bone-handled colt revolvers as if it's a display of their grit and toughness while using an outdated semi-obsolete piece of gear. It is just tacky and displays the exact opposite. Sure, 30 years ago that might come across as genuine still, but now it comes across as Hollywood bs. I don't know a single person who would seriously carry a bone-handle revolver as a carry weapon, and open carry at that, that I would deem competent and not just a poser.
The whole book comes across as just cheesy, stale, and full of strange choices. It might have come across as genuine in the 80s, but as a modern tale, it's lacking. Not terrible, but not worth a second read. Just meh.
