Great story, silly end
Where does The Abduction rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Overal a good story, but the American psycho babble ending spoils the book . So quit when you are 5 minutes from the end, then you will have a good book.

Mark Giminez at his very best
One of the best thrillers I have read or heard. Links between many threads are teased out through this high paced story. Definitely worth a listen

Probably the best novel I've heard . Great story,
Pity The Americans don't understand football but they will learn. Gimenez has written several good books ,he is better than Grisham.

Slow pace and caricature characters
I liked the look of this - the story sounded great but quickly realised it wasn't for me. Painfully slow pace. Characters who just aren't believable and come across as caricatures. Hard nose female lawyer, hard drinking hard green beret Vietnam vet and geek about to sell his company who doesn't get woman - just computer code. Of course he was bullied at school. And the Vietnam vet had something horrible happen in the war. Yawn. Maybe it feels so slow because the characters are so obvious. You basically already know everything about them in the first couple of chapters and the don't really develop from there. Some of the lines are so cheesy as well. I.e. "The only person who can take on a green beret is another green beret". I kept expecting it to pick up but it didn't.
