Publisher Description

Four famed '60s radicals are gunned down at long range by a sniper. Under enormous media scrutiny, the FBI quickly concludes that Marine war hero Carl Hitchcock, whose 93 kills were considered the leading body count tally among American marksman in Vietnam, was the shooter. But as the Bureau, led by Special Agent Nick Memphis, bears down, Hitchcock commits suicide.

In closing out the investigation, Nick discovers a case made in heaven: everything fits, from timeline, ballistics, and forensics to motive, means, and opportunity. But maybe it's a little too perfect?

Nick asks his friend, the retired Marine sniper Bob Lee Swagger, to examine the data. Using a skill set no other man on earth possesses, Swagger soon discovers unseen anomalies and gradually begins to unravel a sophisticated conspiracy - one that would require the highest level of warcraft by the most superb special operations professionals. Swagger soon closes in, and those responsible will stop at nothing to take him out. But these heavily armed men make the mistake of thinking they are hunting Bob, when he is, in fact, hunting them. And when Swagger and the last of his antagonists finally face each other, reenacting a classic ritual of arms, it is clear that at times there's nothing more necessary than a good man with a gun and the guts to use it.

Welcome back Mr. Sniper!

It's good to see ,that Bob Lee is back to being the sniper he was known for. With the last two novels moving away from his long range skills it is refreshing that he is back to sniping in this latest installment of the B.L. Swagger saga. The technical detail is great to go along with an interesting plot. I do miss Beau Bridges narration as compared to Buck Shirner's style.

I, Sniper

I have to start with an apology to the author. I have enjoyed every one of Mr. Hunter's novels.....until this one. It's not the story....it's the reader. No matter the sentence, every one is performed in sing-song fashion with an identical, and limited, up and down range. Characters voices are difficult to distinguish. The imitation of a European accent (Irish, perhaps?) is particularly annoying. My suggestion....read the book. Again, my condolences to the author.

Book Great, Reader lacks skills

Hunter, the book is great. Please do not hire this reader again, I do not now how much a reader is paid to read a book for audio book listeners, but pre-reading the book and making notes for the vocal recording should be considered simple yet required groundwork. The vocalization does not convey the quality of writing Stephen Hunter has put into all of his novels.
