Vinh Murphy - former Marine and onetime operative for the elite security firm Troubleshooters Incorporated - has been MIA ever since his wife, Angelina, was caught in a crossfire and killed during what should have been a routine bodyguard assignment. Overcome with grief, Murphy blames the neo-Nazi group known as the Freedom Network for her death. Now, years later, Freedom Network leader Tim Ebersole has been murdered - and the FBI suspects Murphy may have pulled the trigger. Murphy himself can't be sure what he did or didn't do during the years he spent mourning and lost in an alcohol-induced fog. He does know he occasionally sought solace from Hannah Whitfield, a former police officer and the very friend who'd introduced him to his beloved late wife.
But finally, Murphy is ready to rejoin the living. As always, he finds himself knocking on Hannah's door. Yet even as Murphy slowly rebuilds his splintered life, he continues to fight his growing feelings for Hannah. Then he learns of Ebersole's murder and comes to believe that the Freedom Network has targeted him - and Hannah - to avenge their leader's death. Now Murphy must face the terrifying prospect of losing to violence another woman he loves.
Narrators Patrick Lawlor and Renée Raudman trade off male and female voices with humor, energy and emotion. In this thirteenth book in Brockmann's Troubleshooters series, the ex-marines and Navy Seals are working to bring down the neo-Nazi group they tangled with in the last book. There are many characters to keep track of, and the narrators help listeners keep them all straight. The story's plot balances a mix of sorrow for a friend's death, spiking sexual tension, and a high-octane kidnapping scenario. Narrators Lawlor and Raudman manage to pull it all together, keeping the personalities straight and the emotions simmering in a way that feels barely contained. D.G.
