About this listen

An Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestseller.

For fans of Tom Clancy and Lee Child, a heart-pumping thriller of betrayal, revenge, and conspiracy by USA Today bestselling author Steven Konkoly.

Former CIA operative turned mercenary for hire Ryan Decker’s specialty is rescuing kidnap victims. Hired by an influential US senator to liberate her daughter from a human-trafficking ring, Decker never anticipated sabotage or that the assault could go so disastrously wrong. The hostage is dead. His team is wiped out, and so are their families, including Decker’s own wife and son - eliminated one by one by the Russian mafia. And he’s survived to take the fall.

When he’s inexplicably freed soon into a ten-year sentence in federal prison, Decker suspects another setup. And private investigator Harlow Mackenzie knows he’s right. She has evidence that a power greater than the Russian mob was behind the raid that ruined Decker’s life.

The next move in a nationwide cat-and-mouse game of high-level sedition is up to them. Fueled by revenge and an obsession to clear his name, Decker has only one mission: to destroy a growing conspiracy before it’s too late.

Critic Reviews

“Steven Konkoly’s new Ryan Decker series is a triumph - an action-thriller master class in spy craft, tension, and suspense. An absolute must-read for fans of Tom Clancy, Vince Flynn, and Brad Thor.” (Blake Crouch, New York Times best-selling author)

The Rescue by Steven Konkoly has everything I love in a thriller - betrayal, murder, a badass investigator, and a man fueled by revenge.” (T.R. Ragan, New York Times best-selling author)

“Breakneck twists, political conspiracy, bristling action - The Rescue has it all! Steven Konkoly has created a dynamic and powerful character in Ryan Decker.” (Joe Hart, Wall Street Journal best-selling author)

I have listened to many audio books, but this narration is the worst I have ever heard. There is no difference of voice between the various 'actors'. His voice is so monotone, I want to go asleep! I will never listen to a book that is read by Thom Rivera again!
And to add to the pain, the story line is fairly mediocre.

Worst narration ever
