Joe
Brannan and his boat, the Betty, are
hired by three university types to search for possible areas to create
artificial reefs along Thailand’s coast; however, it turns out they are really
CIA. The Navy has lost a super weapon, and it is thought to be somewhere near
the coast of Pattaya. Problems arise when a local Korean smuggler steals the
weapon before the team can retrieve it, and now it’s heading for China en route
to North Korea.
There is
lots of action from the very beginning, as the Koreans kill two CIA agents and
capture the third, framing Brannan for the murders. Joe is forced to run before
the Thai police can arrest him, and now he needs to take the CIA woman away
from her Korean captors to prove his innocence, but that isn’t going to be
easy.
The
Brannan series is the best new men’s action novels I have read in a long time.
The author’s writing is fast, and the story flows smoothly, with plenty of
action and suspense to keep the reader on the edge of their seats. Even though
it appears the author may have killed off one of the more interesting
characters in this story, I’m not totally convinced we’ve seen the last of
North Korea’s highly trained Korean agent, Sook-Ju. I would certainly like to
see her return in a future story, as she almost took the story away from the
lead character. The read is definitely fun, and highly recommended. PULP DEN
Reviews.
