About this audiobook

Alex Hawke, British lord and gentleman spy, is looking for the Queen's missing grandson, whose disappearance may be the culmination of a plot almost a century old in this breathtaking new adventure from New York Times bestselling novelist Ted Bell.

December 8, 1941, Washington, D.C.
The new Chinese ambassador to the United States, Tiger Tang, meets with President Roosevelt one day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. For the next four years, China and the U.S. will be wartime allies, but the charming, sophisticated ambassador may be playing his own treacherous game.

Today, The Bahamas
Alex Hawke is recovering from serious injuries incurred during a battle with a malevolent enemy. His recuperation is interrupted by a desperate call from the Queen. Her favorite grandson has disappeared in the Bahamas. Lord Hawke is the only man she trusts with a mission this sensitive. All she knows is that the young prince was last seen at the exclusive Dragonfire nightclub owned by the nefarious Tang brothers, grandsons of Ambassador Tiger Tang.

    The entire audiobook would be awesome to get, as opposed to the 4 minute sample labeled as a 12 hour audio.

    I found this book to be marginally better than the previous one in the series which was Overkill. It's a quick and fast read that moves along at a good clip. For most of the book Hawke is in the Bahamas trying to find his godson who is the Queen's grandson. He has disappeared and no one has a clue where he could be. His last known place was an exclusive resort located on an island in the Bahamas called Dragonfire. While there Hawke teams up with an old flame and Stoke and Hawke discover a lot of secret military activity that is affiliated with the resort. This book goes back and forth from present day to 1941 and 1942 with Hawke's grandfather who was a spy and saboteur in the war. We see a couple of sabotage events that Blackie is involved in and we are aware that our Hawke hasn't really fallen far from the tree. I liked seeing a bit of Hawke's grandfather and that in fact was the best part of the book for me..Present day Hawke's adventures are predictable .and somewhat repetitive from previous books. But, as usual, I love the fancy assault gear that Hawke and Stoke use when they are completing a mission. 3 stars as I managed to read the whole book, and stayed interested in the story..
