A GRIPPING THRILLER FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR

‘Deadly conspiracies, bone-crunching action and a tormented hero with a heart . . . packs a real punch’ Andy McDermott

A sunken secret. A missing woman. A race against time.

Former SAS major Ben Hope is relaxing at his home in Normandy when he hears the worst news of his life. His ex-girlfriend Dr Brooke Marcel has been kidnapped.

Racing against the clock, Ben’s frantic search for Brooke leads him from Ireland to the Spanish mountains and the rainforests of Peru.

What is the mysterious link between the kidnapping, the salvage of a sunken 16th-century Spanish warship and the secret activities of its wealthy discoverer?

As the trail of wreckage and mayhem intensifies, Ben soon uncovers a web of intrigue, corruption and brutal murder.
But will he be too late to find Brooke alive?

The Ben Hope series is a must-listen for fans of Dan Brown, Lee Child and Mark Dawson. Join the millions of fans who get breathless with anticipation when the countdown to a new Ben Hope thriller begins…

Whilst the Ben Hope thrillers can be enjoyed in any order, this is the eighth book in the series.

Scott Mariani writes epic novels. They are well-written, descriptions are visible and you always lose yourself in the story. This was about a boy who started out poor but instead of becoming rich and a good man; he became rich, greedy and insane.
The narration was very well done and easily understood.

Bangs, Blood and Victories.

Great read if you speed up the narration. I love the Ben Hope series and will read the next one straight away.

Reader Hawkins leeches out most of the enjoyment of this book by a cringe-worthy and excruciating depiction of supporting characters. Hawkins doesn't seem to understand that absolutely NO-ONE speaks the way he represents the supporting characters in the story.

Excruciating performance by reader Jack Hawkins
