A former Special Forces soldier and government agent is called upon to help a family in danger.
Jack Kane is a wanted man. Governments want him dead. And he is the last hope for a family facing a ruthless private military organization.
A UK football club owned by a father-daughter team finds itself the subject of an aggressive takeover bid. Things get out of control when the buyers turn out to be a company backed by a private military group with links to the Russian government. Jack Kane and Frank Craven are the family's last hope as they try to survive brutal attacks and violent thugs in this life-or-death thriller.
Kane is pursued by savage military thugs and vicious government agents. Can he survive and save the family in his fast-paced adventure packed with action, twists, and unforgettable characters?
If you like Andy McNab, Steven Leather, Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne, and Lee Child's Jack Reacher, you will love this heart-stopping thriller.

**Rating:** ⭐⭐⭐ (3 out of 5 stars)
**Title:** TheBook Builds up but Ends with a Shrug
If you are looking for a thriller series with high-octane action, great pacing, and truly excellent characters, the Jack Kane series by Dan Stone delivers on that front. The narration on the audiobooks is top-notch, and the setup surrounding the "hidden enemy" keeps you hooked and listening for hours.
However, after investing my time into these books, I have never been more frustrated by an author’s inability—or refusal—to wrap up a storyline.
It feels like the author writes until he hits a maximum word count limit, realizes he's out of space, and just stops. Instead of giving the listener a satisfying, hard-earned climax to the massive conspiracy he spent books building up, the plot is essentially abandoned. When the next book starts, the massive cliffhanger from the previous book is casually dropped or resolved in a few lazy paragraphs before moving on to something else.
It is incredibly maddening to spendb time building up tension only to get the literary equivalent of a shrug. If you want great character chemistry and mindless action, you will enjoy this. But if you expect an author to actually stick the landing and deliver a satisfying conclusion to the mystery, prepare to be deeply disappointed.
Great Characters, Terrific Action, but a Total Failure on the Payoff
