Summary

From the coauthor of the number-one New York Times best-selling American Sniper, this "inspired by true events" thriller follows one of America’s most lethal snipers as he leads the rescue of a downed female Special Ops pilot.

The President of the United States can’t decide how to respond to a classified video showing the Taliban’s brutal treatment of their captive - a female helicopter pilot of the Army’s elite Special Operations Aviation Regiment. Afraid that a botched rescue will further destabilize foreign policy and end his presidency, the Commander-in-Chief falters. But when the Special Ops community learns that one of their own is being tortured and will almost certainly be killed, no executive order will stop them from attempting a rescue mission.

In direct defiance of the President’s orders, Navy SEAL sniper Gil Shannon launches an audacious mission with the support of elite soldiers and an enigmatic government figure, to infiltrate the tribal faction holding the captured pilot. A pulse-pounding battle ensues, pitching the entire force of the Taliban against the fearless and heroic American sniper. Packed with blistering action and real-life combat scenes, Sniper Elite: One Way Trip will pin you to the edge of your seat until the very last sentence.

Brilliant!

Utterly gripping story. Full of believably written characters. I often listen to books while doing mundane tasks, however with is one, and especially towards the end, I just had to sit down and listen; didn't want to risk missing a beat! Excellent performance by the narrator, every voice distinct and recognisable. This is my first "Sniper" book and I now look forward reading them all.

Fantastic story - if you like Vince Flynn novels..

Brad Thor, Vince Flynn and Tom Wood novels

Didn't over-do the accents and still left them realistic - created a very exciting story.

I can't really do this as I commute but I couldn't wait to get back into the car!

Thoroughly enjoyed this, if it was a book I would say it's a page Turner, don't know how that translates into audio.

Exciting and satisfying

The bad guys get punished. Good stuff. Good technical accuracy. Although the T34 tank should be the T55 tank (very very minor niggle).
