Alright, buckle up folks because Phil Broker's latest adventure is about to take you on a wild ride. In this gripping audiobook, narrated by the one and only Kevin Conway, we find our protagonist facing a heart-stopping situation that hits close to home. His estranged wife, Nina, and their daughter, Kit, have suddenly vanished. But let's be real here, this isn't just your ordinary case of a family dispute. No, no, this is something much bigger.
You see, Nina has a job that plunges her into a world of danger and secrecy. She works for the government, and her line of work has thrown her into harm's way more times than she can count. So when Phil discovers that Nina and Kit have disappeared, he's not exactly shocked. But that doesn't stop him from embarking on a mission to find them and put an end to this chaos once and for all.
In a thrilling turn of events, Phil learns that Kit has been left behind at a motel in Langdon, North Dakota. Naturally, he swoops in to rescue his daughter...only to find himself caught in a perplexing web of deception. Kit is not alone, my friends. She's accompanied by a certain "babysitter" named Jane, who claims to be Nina's estranged girlfriend. And if that wasn't enough, it seems that Nina has found solace in the arms of Buddy Yelton, a local legend and hopeless womanizer. But here's the kicker: Buddy Yelton is far from harmless. Turns out he's got some dangerous connections to the Aryan Nation and, hold onto your hats, quite possibly some Middle Eastern terrorists as well.
To add even more intrigue to the mix, two mysterious guests at the motel catch Phil's attention. He can't help but feel a nagging familiarity with them. It takes him back to the days when he was in Laos in '72, serving as a GI. But what could these former soldiers have to do with the bizarre situation he finds himself in? Something definitely doesn't add up.
And so, dear listeners, Phil Broker is faced with a looming threat that extends far beyond the safety of his family. The fate of the entire Minneapolis-St. Paul Metro area rests in his hands. Can he uncover the truth, untangle this complex web of deception, and save not only his daughter but also his city?
