Narrator Neil Hellegers employs a peculiar talent in narrating this thriller: He reads every sentence, even one like "Pass the butter," as if it were a precursor to imminent disaster. Listeners will be on the edge of their seats, desperate to hear what happens next. Ongoing tension is the core of Hellegers’s talent. The story’s protagonist sounds like your average off-shore fisherman based in the Bahamas, at first. Then, in the usual story arc of a thriller, he stumbles upon treasure (scuba dives into it, actually), uncovers a governmental conspiracy, and finds himself running from villains. Then, it’s revealed that he has an edgy past with a murderous skill set. This package is compelling and masterful, a real winner. D.R.W.

From the Publisher
Michael Ledwidge has the gift—he knows how to involve us in the story from page one. The writing is sharp and the action doesn’t let up. Stop at Nothing is FLAWLESS.” —James Patterson"Stop at Nothing is my kind of book. Shades of John D. MacDonald's Travis McGee. Great characters, lots of action, and a razor-sharp plot. Good stuff. Really good." —Marc Cameron, author of Tom Clancy Oath of Office“I'm not sure how he did it—it seems to defy science—but Michael Ledwidge figured out a way to write a book using pure, distilled adrenaline. Michael Gannon is a fantastic protagonist, destined for the pantheon of characters we love to follow through countless adventures. Here's hoping for many more.” —Rob Hart, author of The Warehouse“In Stop at Nothing, Michael Ledwidge give us sharply drawn characters in a tense, fast-paced adventure that keeps the reader entertained from the intriguing start to the wild finish.” —Thomas Perry, author of The Burglar"Stop at Nothing is a smart, brawny thriller that moves fast and surprises often. The action is tense, the characters are surely drawn, and a wonderful sense of authenticity drives the story. Best of all, the writing is assured and stylish. Stop at Nothing is a high speed roller coaster that will carry you away.” —T. Jefferson Parker, author of The Last Good Guy“I literally could not put down this book. I loved it. Stop at Nothing is a timely, perfectly-paced, character-driven thriller with fun twists and intense action. Michael Gannon is the next great hero in popular fiction.” —Allison Brennan, author of The Third to Die
“Ledwidge knows how to tell a fast-paced story, and he has created an appealing maverick hero. …Give this one to those who remember and still love John D. MacDonald's Travis McGee.’” -Booklist
“A gloriously pulpy, no-nonsense adventure…. [Ledwidge] knows how to keep readers’ adrenaline pumping.” -Times UK
"Fans of... page-turners will be entertained." -Publishers Weekly
"This book [is] worthy of going to the top of your must-read list, thanks to Ledwidge’s peerless setup and execution of each and every scene. If you are thinking about jumping into thrillers, read as many as you can, or are so sick of the genre that you don’t ever want to read another one, you need to STOP AT NOTHING. It will reinforce/restore your enjoyment of these novels, or open you up to an entirely new world..." -Book Reporter
"The rest of us will simply enjoy a fast-paced thriller by an author who has mastered his craft, with lots of action, knowing detail, plenty of twists and turns and characters to cheer or hiss." -Forbes
