Summary

A police raid gone horribly wrong. A band of deadly cult-terrorists on the run. A family held hostage. One man no one counted on to be there—Jack Widow.

When an ATF raid on a cult compound goes horribly wrong, the cult leader and his band of deadly terrorists escape.

On the run and desperate, they need a place to hide. A remote family farm makes for the perfect place. But there’s one big problem. The family that lives there has a guest—a drifter they picked up by the name of Jack Widow.

Widow, the ultimate loner, comes to a standoff with pure evil in the million-selling action-thriller series.

Fans of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp, and Mark Greaney’s Gray Man will love the Jack Widow Action-Thriller Series.

in many ways by this book 12 the writer has honed his skills over and above those off Lee child and I would recommend any of his books especially these later ones. I think everybody wishes there was a Jack widow type person somewhere out there that would help them for no reward. I would like to see the writer change the format just a little more, just a differentiate his books a little from the Jack reacher series, perhaps in the way he ends wraps it up at the end in the final chapters after all the bad guys are dead. definitely read this!

I love all the Jack Widow books and I especially like the narrator and his distinct voice which really fits with the character. I'm now onto the next one, book 13, and highly recommend the past 12 I've already listened to in the series. I would advise going back to the start after this book so as to learn about his relationship with his mother.

Jack Widow is a great series

Wow. For me, this one didn’t live up the other Widow series books. In fact Jack Widow seemed almost a sideshow in the storyline. Endlessly detail about all the other characters. Minimal JW action.

Worst in Series?
