About this listen

Federal Judge Tom Brewer is finally putting the pieces of his life back together. In the closet for 25 long years, he's climbing out slowly, and, with the hope of finding a special relationship with the stunning Mike Lucciano, US Marshal assigned to his DC courthouse. He wants to be out and proud, but he can't erase his own past, and the lessons he learned long ago.

A devastating terrorist attack in the heart of Washington, DC, and the capture and arrest of the terrorist lead to a trial that threatens to expose the dark underbelly of America's national security. The Russian president is gravely injured and fixated on revenge, while a gay Russian dissident is arrested and put on trial in Judge Tom Brewer's courtroom. As Russia beats the drums of war and the United States struggles to contain the trial before it races out of control, secrets and lies, past and present, collide in his courtroom, before his bench.

With the world's attention fixed on Tom and this case, secrets from his past explode during the course of the trial, which place him at the very center of the case and make him the only man who can try to stop the world's slide into war.

Contains mature themes.

I liked this story once it got over the introduction. The narration was a bit over the top at time, breathless and gushy. A little hard to believe, almost made me not want to listen further. Overall a reasonable listening experience.

This book is a favourite of mine. The storyline, the characters and plot are a standard above anything else you will read.
I found the narration at the start a bit fluttery but the amount of characters this person does was brilliant.

First 14 hours would be better condensed to a couple of hours then continue with the final 7 hours to make a strong overall story.

Slow start, strong ending

I enjoyed the read. Love the espionage and suspense but mostly the deep love this author manages to portray between his characters. In so many ways he makes you say “if only.”

Always interesting
