Pirate: A Thriller (Hawke) |
Aboard a ship in the south of France, an American spy faces certain torture and death for the vital, explosive intelligence he possesses. In Paris, a ruthless and powerful descendant of Napoleon has forged an unholy alliance with China for its growing nuclear arsenal, poised to send America and the world to the brink of a gut-wrenching showdown. Now, in a maelstrom of razor's-edge danger, Alex Hawke must enter the nightmare visions of madmen to defuse an axis of evil no historian could have predicted -- and no living soul would survive.

From AudioFile
The third of Ted Bell''s thrillers with Lord Alex Hawke as the hero has arrived. This time Hawke''s job is to the save the United States from nuclear devastation at the hands of France and China. Hawke is a modern-day Batman with his wealth, talent, and level-headed execution. John Shea helps make the characters credible with his mastery of British, Chinese, and American accents, especially when the plot seems farfetched. His skill is apparent in conversations between the French Bonaparte and the Chinese assassin, Hu Xu. Shea overcomes some of the far-reaching plot by keeping the listener engaged and eager for the next adventure to begin.
