Publisher's Summary

A missing young girl. A horrifying conspiracy. Jack Widow will kill to save her.

Under a sweltering Texas landscape, Jack Widow waits at a dust-covered bus station, when he meets Claire Hood, a grandmother, clearly in distress. Claire is on a solo mission to rescue her abducted granddaughter.

Minutes after meeting her, the unthinkable happens. Claire drops dead - natural causes. Right there in front of Widow.

Widow isn’t the type of guy to let wrongs go. He picks up her bus ticket and takes her place on a quest that will give him a reason to kill.

Widow hunts across Texas for an abducted child in the riveting third novel in Scott Blade’s Amazon best-selling Jack Widow series.

Fans of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher, Tom Clancy, Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp, and Mark Greaney’s Gray Man will love the Jack Widow action-thriller series.

Great listen to lol!

Awesome, obviously I loved it. Action was great. Maybe a bit too much detail, but didn’t detract from story at all.

The Wall!

Excellent Narration of a retired NCIS agent investigating a missing child and her Father, after the Grandmother suddenly passed away at a Bus station where Jack was also sitting. As a drifter he meets all types of people and usually helps them if required. Book 3 in this Series is worthwhile listening to or reading.

Thoroughly Enjoyable

Great story line that was interesting all the way through. In the right genre of Reacher that had action but the loneliness of previous stories

Great listening as always

Once again I’m not disappointed by the author, plot or main characters or the narrator, good choice.

A bit underwhelming

I'm scratching my head over the 5 star reviews? This book is very amateurish, in fact feels like it was written for teenagers, except the author at times decides to go overboard describing gore. The style feels like the 1980's where girls are all unbelievably pretty and our heroine has them all falling at his feet. Parts of the plot are puzzling where the bad guys have the good guy captured and want to kill him, but for some unexplained reason they don't and you guessed it.... he turns things around.
I ended up jumping ahead here and there and feeling like I was reading an old cheesy western from the 1950's.
The trouble you get from reading really good action authors is that the average ones become obvious to you and fail to capture your attention.
