Description
A NATION IN DANGER. ONLY ONE MAN CAN SAVE IT.
Dez Limerick is a retired mercenary, previously known as The Gatekeeper - the man who opened doors that others wanted shut.
He's checking out sunny California when his hotel suddenly falls under attack. In the wrong place at the right time, Dez stops a meticulously planned scheme to kidnap Petra Alexandris, the daughter of a major military contractor.
While helping her uncover a secret plot buried within her father's company, Dez exposes a conspiracy that becomes more sinister at every explosive turn: a deadly operation involving media manipulation, militias, an armed coup, and an attempt to fracture the United States themselves.
There's only one obstacle between the conspirators and the downfall of a nation . . . The Gatekeeper.

Another one I could not put down and devoured in one sitting. I absolutely recommend this book. Be ready for an afternoon or evening of completely neglecting any chores as this one will have you hooked within the first chapter
I found this audiobook full of action and was an adrenaline rush listening to it!
There’s a fair bit of bad language and violence in it, and that starts from the off.
There is a good story behind it all.
I did find I got confused with the character changes and there were lots of them.
Overall a good book
