Brad Thor is thrilling readers again with
his latest release, HIDDEN ORDER, but, this is not your typical Scot Harvath
thriller… No indeed. In this new assignment, Scot is wearing a different hat…
that of detective rather than Special Forces operative, and this fact may have
many thinking that Harvath is considering slowing down a bit. In fact, there
are a few passages in which Harvath considers ‘scaling back’ may be in his
not-too-distant future, along with a possible switch to the corporate side of
the famed Carlton Group.
After Carlton, Harvath, and several other
top operatives in the Carlton Group are targeted for assassination, with
several operatives being lost, the Group loses its primary Defense Department
contract. This makes it necessary for them to take on any and all comers to
re-coup their loses and get back in the game.
Enter Monroe Lewis, COO of the Federal
Reserve, with a rather sticky situation. The head of the Reserve has died and
the five contenders for his spot have been kidnapper, with one found murdered.
Harvath is tasked with finding the other four before they too are killed.
This newest thriller from Thor will uncover
the real truth about the Federal Reserve and its dealings, and educate the
public as to the true nature of this, the most secretive organization in
America. One which pretends to be part of the United States government, but
with immeasurable power and non-accountability to the government or the people.
Mr. Thor has done his homework, uncovering
a serpent in the garden of our government, and has penned a scenario that could
easily come to pass. With his ever-flawless character development, story
structure, and attention to detail, he has once again written a frightening and
controversial novel, causing some sleepless nights for this reviewer.
Another great read from one of the writing
masters of our time, Brad Thor’s HIDDEN ORDER is a stand-out, 5-spider novel
worthy of everyone’s attention.
