Cold Zero

A Thriller

By: Brad Thor, Ward Larsen

Narrated by: Armand Schultz

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor and USA TODAY bestselling author Ward Larsen, comes a heart-pounding thriller of survival, espionage, and global brinkmanship, where the frozen Arctic becomes the deadliest battlefield on Earth.

A vanished plane. An earth-shattering secret. A countdown to World War III.

Hemisphere Airlines Flight 777—the most advanced jetliner ever built—disappears without a trace over the North Pole. Crippled by sabotage, it crash-lands on the ice, stranding the surviving passengers in a wasteland of frigid cold and chaos.

The real storm, however, is still coming.

Hidden inside the wreckage is the prototype for a revolutionary piece of technology that could upend the balance of world power. Now Washington, Moscow, and Beijing are racing to be the first on scene to retrieve it—at any cost.

Trapped in the middle of the world’s most dangerous flash point are CIA operative Kasey Sheridan and former fighter pilot turned first officer, Brett Sharpe. Hunted by enemy forces, they must spirit both the device and its creator across the ice to safety—before rival superpowers turn the Arctic into a war zone.

With the clock ticking and the temperature dropping, the fate of the free world is about to be decided at the top of the globe.

Real FUBAR-Great Story

Hopefully a Series! An ongoing sequence is needed with these two! and a storyline as realistic and authentic.

Surprisingly entertaining

Loved the story and momentum kept me having to binge this in one day, great voice too narrating it.

What a one, two punch

Or shall I say a one, one punch. I have read all of Thor and Ward books. All are excellent. Such talented writers you can only expect the best. They did not disappoint. Both writers have 2nd books coming out this year and I don’t know if they can top this one. The story is a thrill from chapter one to the last one. Every time I thought I was at the climax of the story I would see I had many more chapters to listen to. The plane crash, the challenges to stay alive, the rescue attempts, the Chinese, the Russians, the trek across the frozen tundra all left me exhausted by the end. I am re-listening to it again because I am sure I missed many details on the first read. I hope this is not the last we hear from the CIA agent Kasey and Airline pilot Brett. Both were relentless. Oh, there is no way I will ever take a plane ride over the North Pole, just sayin’. This book was an absolute blast made even better by talented narrator Armand Schultz.

Great narration

I enjoy the entire series. Always a fun and adventure filled romp! Highly recommend.

too much unbelievable

to think the ice wolves are under trained is too arrogant to believe as the truth
