Story
Court Gentry is known as The Gray Man—a legend in the covert realm, moving silently from job to job, accomplishing the impossible, and then fading away. And he always hits his target. But there are forces more lethal than Gentry in the world. And in their eyes, Gentry has just outlived his usefulness. Now, he is going to prove that for him, there's no gray area between killing for a living-and killing to stay alive.

Story
After a covert mission became personal, the only way elite counterterrorism operative, Alexander King, could keep his loved ones safe, and the eyes of Washington's enemies blind to his existence, was to disappear. A year after his family buried a body they thought was his, King saves a young woman from a car bomb in London, and that's when his work in the shadows becomes complicated. Because she's not who he thinks she is, and the web that King is pulled into is tangled with enemies that reach the highest levels of the United States government.

Story
Ex-Special Forces operator Tom Keeler is a rambling man. He’s just passing through the town of Alencourt, France, and in less than an hour, someone tries to kill him. Nice place, nice try. But it’s a case of mistaken identity, and they picked the wrong guy. The French police can’t be trusted, except for the beautiful Cecile Nazari. She finds out fast that keeping up with Keeler is a dangerous occupation. Because someone’s preying on the weak and unprotected. Someone murderous. But they never counted on coming up against a guy like Keeler.

Did not realise it wasn’t even one hour long
What a waste of a credit to buy such a short story. Why would anyone have a book that short and why does it make it to the list of Gregg Hurwitz novels. It felt unfinished due to being that short a story. I wish I had realised that before wasting my credit. I have listened to quite a few Orphan X books and thought this would be the same 😔

A 30min Book is Not Worth a Credit
It's my own mistake, I didn't check the duration of the recording.
But if I had my time again I wouldn't buy the half issues. They are sperate from the main story line.

DO NOT BUY THIS! It’s a rip off tactic.
I loved the first book, I was keen to buy the next book! After paying for the book, settling in to it… only to realise that it’s only 30 minutes
Being the stubborn fool that I am, I am not supporting this author any more.
