About this listen

From New York Times bestselling author Barry Eisler...Livia Lone is back.

For sex-crimes detective Livia Lone, a position with a government anti-trafficking task force is a chance to return to Thailand to ferret out Rithisak Sorm, the kingpin behind her own childhood ordeal.

But after a planned takedown in a nightclub goes violently awry, Livia discovers that she's not the only one hunting Sorm. Former marine sniper Dox has a score to settle, too, and working together is the only way to take Sorm out.

Livia and Dox couldn't be less alike. But they share a single-minded creed: the law has to serve justice. And if it doesn't, justice has to be served another way.

What they don't know is that in threatening Sorm, they're also threatening a far-reaching conspiracy - one involving the highest levels of America's own intelligence apparatus. It turns out that killing Sorm just might be the easy part. The real challenge will be payback from his protectors.

I enjoyed the first book in this series, but in my opinion this book elevates Barry Eisler from a writer "telling" an interesting story to a more skilled author capable of immersing his readers into the lives of his characters with well timed injections of humour and pathos.
I also loved the author's narration of his work - if I could make one negative observation it would be that the timbre of his voice in what I think of as his more laconic mode doesn't maintain clarity when increasing the volume of the audiobook. This is only a minor detraction in what is otherwise a 5 star listen.

Great development of characters and story
