About this listen

He swore to be always faithful. Will joining a top-secret CIA program force him to choose between betraying a friend and remaining a patriot?

Duncan Hunter is driven by his sense of duty. So when a plane crash forces the ambitious pilot out of the Marine Corps, he hungrily searches for another way to fight terrorism. And he finds it in an intelligence officer's invitation to come aboard a clandestine project scouting and destroying Mexican poppy fields in the War on Drugs.

Forced into hiding when his cover is blown, Hunter forges strategic new friendships while dodging assassination attempts. But as the aftershocks from the hunt for bin Laden bring more intricate conspiracies to light, the scarred fighter comes under fire from double-dealing politicians as well as jihadist snipers.

Can the embattled agent expose a deadly inner rot before he's permanently shot down? Special Access is the darkly unsettling first book in the Duncan Hunter series of political thrillers. If you like tough-as-nails heroes, high-octane adventures, and stories of real-world corruption, then you'll love Mark A. Hewitt's suspense-laden tale.

Too politically

The narrator was the only reason I listened to the end of the book. The left is evil. The right will save all. Sad.

the lack of character development

The book felt like it had ADD the way it jumped around in time. I think the author was attempting to use this as charachter development, but it just came off as very loosely connected vignettes.
The author doesn't know the most basic information about flying. A cyclic is used in rotary-wing aircraft, not in fixed- wing aircraft.
The author does not understand the military. A young pilot is not pulled out of flight school to be a general's aid, the Command and Staff school is not something you do as a Leutenant and not while in flight school. An O-3 will not be the XO of a fighter squadron. An O-6 does not attend the Naval War College, he teaches there.
These errors were glaring to me. That said, I did finish the book because I paid for it and no other reason.
