About this audiobook

The explosive audiobook thriller series written by Nicholas Irving, New York Times bestselling author of The Reaper and star of Fox's American Grit.

American hero, or unhinged vigilante?

In Reaper: Ghost Target, Vick "The Reaper" Harwood is an esteemed sniper with a record kill count—33 kills in 90 days—when he is knocked out under mortar attack in Afghanistan. He wakes up back in the United States with little memory of what happened, his spotter and gun both unrecovered from the battlefield. Harwood has resigned himself to slowly picking up the pieces of his life, training Special Forces snipers in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and starting a promising relationship with an Olympic medalist named Jackie.

But when a series of assassinations start occurring in the area, Harwood can't explain why he just happens to be nearby for each killing—or how a sniper rifle that matches the description of the one he lost seems to be involved. His memory of the past few days is hazy and full of blackouts, and even he has to wonder, is he being framed? Or is he the killer?

As Harwood runs from the authorities, his girlfriend falls off the radar, his missing spotter resurfaces, and the assassinated men are outed as drug and sex traffickers. Nothing is adding up. Harwood realizes he has to unravel this mystery, and fast, or find himself paying the ultimate price for crimes he may not have committed.

I give it a 3 mainly because the story itself was actually really good. It had me on the edge of my seat a number of times. However, the story could have ended a lot sooner if he had just gone to the police or FBI. With no weapon in his hands, and his specific weapon unseen by his eyes since the explosion, he would not be charged for any of the crimes other than being in the area. His excuse for running "I'm a black man with a gun" doesnt hold water ether. He never had the rifle that was used to kill the people. That was also a reason I give it only 3 stars... it had a lot of "black people are always looked down on" type conversation that just didn't fit the story and took me out of the emerson. It was a good read, but for those reasons, I give it only 3 stars.
