Bob Burke Action Thriller #8

By: William F. Brown

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

It’s "Ocean's Eleven" meets "Man on Fire." In Vegas, the house always wins, unless Bob Burke's at the table. Then, it’s Double Down, all bets are off, and bodies start falling. This is Book #8 in the Bob Burke action-thriller series, with 4.6 Stars on Amazon and 4.6 Stars in Goodreads.

When a Vegas casino mogul's daughter is brutally kidnapped off the streets of San Francisco, he makes three phone calls— first, to the head of the FBI; second, to his contact with the Gambino crime family in New York, and third to the Commanding General of the Joint Special Operations Command at Fort Bragg. The FBI immediately dispatches a mobile lab and strike force to the scene. The Mob puts out the word to all their contacts, “Let her go now, unharmed, and we won’t kill you.” The General is an old friend and calls Bob Burke.

“Get the Merry Men and get out there!” “Me?” “You… Because you have a reputation for finding lost people, for not taking crap from the bad guys, and blowing holes through people who try. He’ll pay you $20 mil and expenses for trying. So go.”

Do you like a good action-adventure series? Binge read Brad Thor, Vince Flynn, and Lee Child? If you’re a fan of Mitch Rapp, Scot Harvath, Jack Ryan, the Grayman, Jack Reacher, or Mark Dawson’s Milton, you’ll love the Bob Burke Series. 10 Books with this former Delta Force commander taking on the New York and Chicago mobs, the Kremlin, Beijing, kidnappers, and international terrorists.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas—even the bodies. The kidnappers thought Sin City and the vast Nevada desert around it was their hunting ground. They’re wrong. Burke's about to show them what happens when Delta makes a house call. Bright neon lights can’t hide them. The desert isn’t vast enough to escape. And no amount of money can buy them out of what's coming. The Geek Squad back on the 3rd floor is hacking into bank accounts, financial records, even NSA and DoD satellites. “The Ghost” has a squadron of Apache gunships on call up the road. And no one can outrun a well-aimed .50-caliber bullet.

This isn't Burke's first kidnapping. From Mexico to Moscow and back to Sherwood Forest, he's been relentless, leaving a trail of bodies and blown-up buildings wherever someone's taken someone or something that doesn't belong to them. But Vegas is different. Everyone's playing an angle out there—the FBI, the Brooklyn mob, the pit bosses, even the local cops —and no one can be trusted.
