About this listen

Two small-time journalists take on an international cartel who try a hostile takeover of a Canadian mining company.

Lucas, a veteran journalist, sees a big story brewing within a strike at a local mining company when explosions rip through the plant, but he gets bumped by Jamie, a junior reporter. To keep his finger in the pie, he agrees to mentor the new journalist while following a second story about a sex-worker found half beaten to death.

As the attacks escalate, the two must work together to determine if this is a global threat or the first volley in an international trade war. As the clues of both stories add up, they realize that there is a common link, and they race for the full picture before more attacks take place. One thing is for certain, the mining company, the city, and the country are mere pawns, in a game that could kill thousands unless they can expose the truth and avoid getting caught in the crossfire.

A thrilling Canadian based thriller

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

Wow what a book! I was hooked from the beginning trying to piece together how the various happenings within this small Canadian town fit together.

Lucas and Jamie’s determination to find the truth is refreshing in this current climate where it feels like the media is so corrupt and you don’t know what to believe. They were both determined to get to the truth while still being vulnerable, compassionate and honestly cool under the pressure of the situation they find themselves in.

This book was a perfect blend of plot and subplot. There was a good mix of suspense, intrigue, heart pounding action, while also touching on hard topics that lead to through provoking questions.

There were times this book felt so real. The power, greed, and dominance all things we see everyday in the news. Another country trying to assert their control and power over another. This book really makes you question how far those in search of power are willing to go and if there is any concern at all for the lives lost along the way.

This was my first David Wickenden book but I’ll definitely be reading more of his work. This was a great book and highly recommend if you are looking for a complex edge of your seat thriller.
