Acerca de esta escucha

Audio bonus! The audio download edition includes an exclusive interview with Nelson DeMille, Alex DeMille, and Scott Brick!

This instant New York Times best seller and “outstanding” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) thriller features a brilliant and unorthodox Army investigator, his enigmatic female partner, and their hunt for the Army’s most notorious — and dangerous — deserter.

When Captain Kyle Mercer of the Army’s elite Delta Force disappeared from his post in Afghanistan, a video released by his Taliban captors made international headlines. But circumstances were murky: Did Mercer desert before he was captured? Then a second video sent to Mercer’s Army commanders leaves no doubt: The trained assassin and keeper of classified Army intelligence has disappeared.

When Mercer is spotted a year later in Caracas, Venezuela, by an old Army buddy, top military brass task Scott Brodie and Maggie Taylor of the Criminal Investigation Division to fly to Venezuela and bring Mercer back to America - preferably alive. Brodie knows this is a difficult mission, made more difficult by his new partner’s inexperience, by their undeniable chemistry, and by Brodie’s suspicion that Maggie Taylor is reporting to the CIA.

With ripped-from-the-headlines appeal, an exotic and dangerous locale, and the hairpin twists and inimitable humor that are signature DeMille, The Deserter is the first in a timely and thrilling new series from an unbeatable team of True Masters: the number one New York Times best seller Nelson DeMille and his son, award-winning screenwriter Alex DeMille.

DeMille and Scott Brick

Nelson DeMille and Scott Brick. The perfect match. Hope the series continues.
Hearing how he and his son worked together
In interview was also perfect.

The king

Nelson DeMille never lets you down. When you begin his books you know you are in safe hands.

Tedious and Sophomoric

Nelson Demille and Scott Brick are a big reason for my addition to audiobooks. So I was very disappointed with The Deserter. A potentially gripping story is dragged to a near snails pace with rambling descriptions and a lot of insignificant dribble that has little to do with the plot or the unraveling of events. Character development is weak. Only the antagonist and subject of the deserter search, Captain Kyle present any complexity. At its core this is a story about a rogue CID officer and his gorgeous partner who happen to be pursuing a very dangerous Delta Force deserter in Venezuela. The key points of the book seem to be that Scott Brody, one of the main characters, has a penis and wants to get laid. Greatly overdone, this sophomoric attempt at humor is irritating. The book is not without some interesting moments but it's tough not to give up on the book in between them.

Nothing like a 11 hour book taking 17 hours

Wordy. Obnoxious at times. Other times Brody made me lol. Took forever to get to the end and then skipped right over it. Great character development, but it was too much for me. Ultimately I finished it because I was invested in the characters, but left disappointed.

A three-way collaboration that rocks

Between the father, the son and the voice ghost, we have all the talent I can take. This was fun and engaging. Please keep it up. Thank you.

a fresh story, complex and interesting

I thought I'd read every possible "highly-trained-soldier-goes-off-because-something-bad-happened" story, but this one is full of fresh places and interesting encounters. The characters are somewhat cliched, but not too much - the main character is so smarty-pants and sarcastic, all the time, it gets old. "Brilliant, but flawed" is the baseline for most of the characters in these types of novels, same for these. But the story takes place in Venezuela, and I found that part fascinating. What a messed up place.

A tired plot.

The story is told with sufficient detail, but this is a well-covered plot. It's the dialogue I found utterly insufferable - cliche and stupid - tries way too hard to be clever. Scott Brick, as always, does a good job narrating. Went to return it several times, but eventually made it to the end.

Collaborators Will Be Shot!

In and interview after the book with the two authors and Scott Brick, Nelson DeMille reveals that he does not like working with another author....until now. In fact, he has a sign on his desk from WW II that says "Collaborators will be shot!"
Well, the collaboration between Nelson DeMille and his son Alex DeMille is just about as perfect as you can get. Though the lead character is not John Corey, this new guy on the block has a style of his own....R I G H T! And his sidekick is a beautiful and fearless blond. What's not to like?
I understand the Family DeMille will be making this a series. Count me in for being one of the first to get the next book when it comes out.

Unbelievably insulting.

In all fairness, having experienced the audiobook rather than the novel, I must say that I was thoroughly disgusted. It left me wondering if the novel itself was any less insulting to intelligent readers. Listening to the audiobook made me despise the two main characters, Brody and Taylor, to the point where I found myself wholeheartedly rooting for Kyle Mercer. Let me be clear: I have a strong aversion towards those who claim to uphold the law. Taylor proved to be incredibly gullible and easily manipulated, while Brody revealed himself to be nothing short of an abhorrent human being. His willingness to jeopardize the lives of others for personal gain and recognition was simply repugnant. This distressing realization sheds light on why movies today have plummeted in quality, as it appears the writers themselves are severely lacking.
