Former Delta Force operative Shepherd and his partner Lucky are sent to Russia on an “easy assignment” when all hell breaks loose. Instead of chaperoning a single analyst on Uncle Max’s dime, they’re suddenly protecting a group of innocent employees and their families from a maniacal CEO and the local mafia, the head of which uses wild wolves trained to rip apart his enemies on command.

This thriller is action-packed and as thrilling as advertised. This is the second book in the series but I didn’t read the first book and had no problems getting into this storyline right away. The kids they had to save were incredibly annoying and I would have left them behind in a heartbeat, but other than that, I really enjoyed this thriller.

I listened to the audiobook on this one and Eric Altheide did a great job narrating.

And this series is available for free with #KindleUnlimited.

Thank you, @SevernRiverPublishing and @NetGalley for my gifted copy.

Highly recommend reading the first book to know about Shepherd and Fox. Their role is to protect an auditor at a facility in Russia. You’d think it was simple but there are many factors getting in the way. Despite the challenging job there’s an easy banter and relaxed professionalism between Shepherd and Lucky “Fox.” It’s a quick moving book, read in a few hours, and takes place over an entire day. Quite enjoyable and exciting, I read an early copy and gave my review voluntarily.

A fun fast paced action thriller. When a businessman deals with a Russian warlord, what could go wrong? This was a fun and quick read. Very heavy on the action. Uncle Max decides to send a forensic accountant to find answers about some discrepancies regarding a plastics companies accounting and missing funds, things go south quickly. What should be a quick and easy mission for Sheperd, Lucky and Red ends up being a life or death situation that could have global impact.

It appeared like an easy payday. All they had to do was to provide close in protection for a wealthy businessman. But things are not always as it seems. Soon they find themselves in a world of complete chaos and must make some quick decisions or they might find themselves in a shallow grave. As they progress on their mission they find themselves paired up with the strange but capable Darcy brothers in order to get out of this op alive and lead free.
