Amazing thriller

Mason Dixon a great bartender and an even better hero. Amazing narration.

This book was provided free for review, however, it is my own thoughts and opinions.

Entertaining, but maybe not a super-thriller

This is the story of Mason Dixon, a bartender by day and hitman by night. The challenge for Mason comes when a woman, Hannah, comes into the bar and Mason does not immediately realize that she is his mark. Of course, their relationship develops in a way that it should not for a hitman and then Mason becomes conflicted between his job and his feelings. The story is told in a very straightforward manner that is easy to follow in an audio format and it made for a very entertaining listen.

The narration by Harmon Gamble was excellent and I thought the overall production and performance were great. The story was good enough that I will find the second in the series - not sure if it will be audio or ebook just yet, but I know that I can count on Thacker's work to be entertaining and well worth the investment.

My type of Hero

It took me a long time to get use to the Performer's voice and style. Story starts out slow, but like all first books with new charterers, it takes time to build up. My type of hero because he is a bartender and knows how to make great drinks and family assassin. It took some research to build this story.

This audible was provided to me by the Author for free. Thanks Nick.
