About this listen

Former Special Forces operator Dak Harper needs a job.

Out of work and on the run after a shocking betrayal by his brothers-in-arms, the ex-Special Forces commando hasn’t stopped moving for months.

He can’t. Some of the same soldiers who left him for dead in the Middle East still want his head. And they’re getting closer.

So far, he’s been lucky. But Dak is low on money and nearly out of time. All he needs is an easy gig. A place to lie low, bank some cash, and quietly figure out his next move.

That’s not exactly what he finds.

Some rich kid with more money than he knows what to do with wants to open his own museum. But first, he’s got to fill it, and that’s where Dak comes in.

Not sure if his gift for hunting bad guys will translate to finding priceless artifacts, Dak’s willing to give it a shot. He needs this job. The kid will pay him a lot of money and ask no questions.

Before he knows it, Dak’s on the first flight to South America, chasing his big payday. But Dak’s about to trade one set of problems for something even worse: the deadliest mission of his life.

USA Today best-selling author Ernest Dempsey, creator of the popular Sean Wyatt series, again expands his ever-growing universe of spies, soldiers, treasure hunters, and terrorists. Dak Harper is the baddest good guy you’ve ever met, and the pace of Dempsey’s new series is as unrelenting as anything he’s ever written.

Dak is one skilled & brutal ex-spec ops. soldier.

ED's new character, Dak, has proved to be a mystery & one tough ex-soldier in this new series. Dak has a good heart but is tough as they come, & then some.

In this inaugural story he's struggling to make it in civilian life, and ends up taking a quirky but highly dangerous job, for a smartass rich kid, that wants to do some good in the world of ancient relic hunting. when these two meet it's a match that will be going places & sets the series up well.

When Dak gets into his first hunt for the kid, he gets into more than he bargained for, when he steps off the plane in South America. And so the adventure begins.

I enjoyed this story and it shaped what seems like it's got the potential to be a terrific series. can't wait to start reading the rest now.

The Audible version was great. The narrator did a great job with character voices, whilst reading, which really brought the book alive. This one won't disappoint. Enjoy!
