Seven Seconds

The Gabriel Wolfe Thrillers, Book 14

By: Andy Maslen

Narrated by: Nick Johnson

Rage...grief...betrayal...vengeance

A ferocious, bloody firefight on a remote Scottish island scorched Gabriel Wolfe’s soul to cinders. It left him a broken man, consumed by rage against his unseen enemies. Now he holds two lives in his hands. His own. And that of the woman who betrayed everything he ever held dear. Everything he ever believed in. Everything he ever loved.

Vengeance used to mean something to him. But now he sees it is a hollow trophy. He wants Margot McDonnell to pay the ultimate price for her crimes. But deep down, in the dark, screaming places he struggles to avoid in his nightmares, he knows it will do no good. What’s done is done. What’s past is past. And what is lost. Is lost.

He has already given away his cars. Settled his affairs. Prepared for what comes next. Before him, the components of a powerful bomb. He assembles it. Tests the detonator. Carries it out to the boat. And sets sail for one final trip.

This is the outcome some very powerful people have been praying for. The end of Gabriel Wolfe. With him dead, they are free at last. As he waves to some children playing on the beach, he sets the timer for seven seconds.
