Publisher's Summary

Saturday, 0911 hours — A blast rocks a London hospital and thousands are dead or injured.

1009 hours — Joe Ledger arrives on scene to investigate. The horror is unlike anything he has ever seen.

Compelled by grief and rage, Ledger rejoins the Department of Military Sciences, and within hours he's attacked by a hit team of assassins and sent on a suicide mission into a viral hot zone during an Ebola outbreak.

Soon Ledger and the DMS begin tearing down the veils of deception to uncover a vast and powerful secret society using weaponized versions of the Ten Plagues of Egypt to destabilize world economies and profit from the resulting chaos. Millions will die unless Ledger meets this powerful new enemy on its own terms as he fights terror with terror.

Too many Kings…

It wasn’t the author’s best… the plot dragged but had some good moments. There were too many characters and too much time devoted to the Kings. Need more time with the hero and his gang.

Hard to put down. Ended up binge listening.

Porter does his usual awesomeness in portraying all the characters. Great story by Mayberry. Looking forward to see what is up next for Joe.

Pretty darn entertaining

Narration from Ray Porter was outstanding as usual.
This entry in the Joe Ledger books wasn’t the strongest but I still really enjoyed it. Ends with some unanswered questions so I’m looking forward to the next one!
