Summary

WOULD YOU START A WAR TO AVENGE YOUR BROTHER'S MURDER?

Ian Softley is a killer. He's the man governments call when they want somebody dead. His is a life of intimidation and brutality, of beatings and executions—including, ultimately, his own.

Jack Softley's life is a world away from his brother's. A high school English teacher, devoted father, and all-round nice guy, Jack tries to stay as far from trouble as possible. But when he receives word that Ian has been murdered, he finds himself dragged into a storm of violence and danger.

Because the same people who killed his brother want him dead too.

Hunted by government agents and brutal assassins, Jack must discover the truth about Ian's dark past if he wants to stay alive. But Ian isn't the only Softley to have secrets. Jack hasn't always been a teacher. He hasn't always been a nice guy.

And when push comes to shove, he doesn't do things softly.

The first audiobook in Alex Smith's unputdownable Softley Softley series. If you like brutal action, pulse-pounding suspense, and stories that never stop for breath, you're going to love this electrifying thriller. Featuring a guest appearance by DCI Robbie Kett, from Alex Smith's internationally bestselling crime thrillers!

I loved this audiobook…was so absorbed in it, I couldn’t believe that it was going to finish.

Two brothers who suffered a tragic, violent and abusive childhood at the hands of their deranged drunk of a father. Two very close brothers who were so close, so different but the same.

The narrator was spot on. I can’t wait for the next one in this series… bring it on Alex Smith!

Note: if you follow the DCI Kett series like me, you’ll smile when Kett and DI Pete Porter have a brief cameo appearance 😊
