The latest John Wells thriller takes the semi-retired CIA hero deep into a mysterious plot to move supposed Middle Eastern nukes into American cities. George Guidall delivers a solid, if uninspired, rendering of a story that might have benefited from a more active narration. His pacing is good, but his voicing is too monochromatic. While character definition is there, it lacks sufficient color. Much of the action revolves around hardly credible scenarios within the CIA and the unidentified enemy camp. Textural shortcomings are often substantially overcome by an inspired narration. Alas, not this time. M.C. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2014]
