Sam Capra—Brilliant CIA agent, loving husband, soon-to-be father—loses everything that matters to him in a horrifying moment in London. An unknown enemy has set him up as a traitor. However that enemy has targeted the wrong man. Escaping from the CIA, Sam goes on a desperate hunt for the killer who stole his family and to save his kidnapped wife and child. But the destruction of Sam's life was only step one in an extraordinary plot—and now Sam must become a new kind of hero.

This was one of my favorite audiobooks this year.  It was an excellent action thriller.  Adrenaline is the perfect title for this book because it was non-stop from page one. 

Kevin Collins was the narrator for this audiobook and he did a fantastic job.  He really captured all the intensity that this book was holding in.  I found myself driving slow everywhere I went so I could listen to this longer because I would be hanging on the edge of my seat.  There was never a good place to stop listening because it always sounded like it was on the verge of something explosive happening. 

The story was great.  It had some twists and turns that I wasn't expecting.  It was one of those books where I was talking back to it in disbelief.  I looks like this is the first in a series so I can't wait to read the next one!

This sounds amazing. I added it to my Wishlist after Amazon continued to recommend it. If I enjoyed audio I would totally listen to it, great exciting review.
