The Asset

By: Shane Kuhn

Narrated by: Pete Simonelli

A private airport security contractor becomes a counterterrorism operative to prevent a terrorist attack in this “timely, edge-of-the-seat thriller” (Bookpage) from the author of the #1 internationally bestselling The Intern’s Handbook.

Kennedy—a private airport security contractor—knows more about airports than the head of the TSA, and he feels more comfortable in his British Airways Club World flatbed seat than in his own home. Haunted by the memory of his sister’s death on 9/11, Kennedy takes his job and the protection of the American people very seriously. So when he’s kidnapped and recruited into a CIA ghost operation known as Red Carpet, he jumps at the opportunity to become a civilian asset working with a team of some of the CIA’s best counterterrorism analysts and spec ops soldiers as they race against the clock to stop the greatest terrorist threat the United States will ever face.

With the same bold voice that earned him rave reviews for his previous novels, Shane Kuhn’s The Asset is an “exhilarating” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) read with an “ultimate twist that makes readers’ jaws drop” (Kirkus Reviews).

not as good as Onterns Handbook

not as good as the Interns Handbook . it's worth a read but don't expect it to be as good as the Handbook.

Great read

This book was an intriguing story, well told, with twists to delight and make the story hard to turn off. Pete Simonelli gives the perfect voice to the story. You will love this book. I highly recommend you listen.

Interesting premise

Airport security, a major concern today but you do not think of a hero coming for TSA arena. The book was slow to start but the suspense builds.

A good thriller is a good book. This is neither. It starts well, with a wonderful plot and high tech
tricksters shooting guys standing
right beside us - these quickly dead are Very Bad Guys and the book shifts into 5th gear. It goes downhill quickly ....
