Robert Ludlum's the Treadstone Rendition by Joshua Hood

4.5

Adam Hayes is back in action!  With another baby on the way Adam has been forced into private security work - something he always vowed never to get involved in.  But his latest assignment puts him in a prime position when he receives a call from an old friend.  A friend whose life is in danger.

Adam leaps into the fray and tags along some unlikely and not at all voluntary allies!  He and Seth make their way into the hot zone and the action just keeps climbing from there.  

Traitors, Taliban and surprising help all collide in another rip-roaring adventure.  Adam manages to be both reminiscent and also completely different from Bourne. Adam is a family man, pulled in many directions by his sense of duty and family.  HIs loyalty to his friends is admirable and he doesn't hesitate when they are in trouble.  

I loved learning about his friendship and bond with Abdul Nassim and his frenemy status with Seth was actually a touch of lighthearted entertainment in the story which otherwise goes at 100mph!   Brilliant descriptions of the landscapes and battles make you feel that you're right there in the middle of all the action and the calm acceptance of everything by Mrs Hayes is beautiful and shows just how they work so well an endure when others would break.
