About this audiobook
A cutting-edge novel of international crime and its consequences, from Nigeria to Russia to Washington, from the former deputy assistant secretary of state. We laugh when it pops up in our inbox: the scam letter promising a windfall. We wonder: How does anybody fall for these things? But it is no laughing matter. It is one of the biggest organized crime rackets in the world, it is deadly - and State Department crisis manager Judd Ryker has fallen right into the middle of it. The disappearance of a young American in London sends Ryker into the heart of a corruption scandal in Nigeria, at the same time his CIA agent wife Jessica finds herself chasing a Russian master criminal known as the Bear. Unknown to either of them, they are pulling at two ends of the same lethal thread, a staggeringly vicious enterprise of piracy, extortion, and murder. The world is messy and dangerous, Jessica warns her husband. More dangerous than you know. But he is about to find out.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5'The Shadow List' was a bit of a disappointment. It has a somewhat interesting plot involving both CIA guy Judd Ryker and his wife Jessica, also a spy in a different unit. Although their respective assignments are continents apart, there ends up being a connection.Todd Moss clearly knows the Africa milieu and does a nice job on the 'spy' stuff. His writing is fine in general but his dialogue, which I find often makes or breaks a book for me, is weak and stands in the way of an otherwise decent story. I've read the 1st and 4th installments in the Ryker series and now think I need to backtrack to check out the other two. It's a good series in my favorite genre.
