Description

A novel inspired by #1 New York Times best-selling author Mark Greaney’s Audible Original drama, Armored.

Joshua Duffy is a Close Protection Agent—a professional bodyguard—and he's one of the world's elite operatives. That is, he was until his last mission in Lebanon. Against all odds, Josh got his primary out alive, but the cost was high. Josh lost his lower left leg. 
 
There's not much call for an elite bodyguard with such an injury. So, Josh has to support his family working as a mall cop in New Jersey. For a man like Josh, this is purgatory on earth, but miracles can occur even in Paramus. 
 
A lucky run-in with an old comrade promises to get Josh back in the field for one last job. The UN is sending a peace mission into the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico, an area so dangerous it's known as Espinazo del Diablo—the Devil's Spine. Only a fool would think they could broker peace between the homicidal drug cartels in the region, and only a madman would sign on to keep those fools alive.

    What an awesome read love this book wish there was more from Mark to read. His detail in writing puts you in the shotgun seat on all these adventures. This one truly had me pulling for the good guy, so many twists and turns and unexpected moments throughout the book. Once again sure wish he could crank out some More books the grey man series is great and this one definitely leaves you wondering what happens next to these characters. Please Mark get us some more 😁🤓

    This book is incredible! Such a fast great read with awesome action, a whole band of characters, surprises that will keep you guessing and just when you think it’s about to end-another surprise. I can’t recommend this book enough and it cements Mark Greaney as my favorite thriller author.

    Wow! What a great story. I was a little hesitant at first, I’ve read all of the “Gray Man” books, and I wasn’t sure about this story of “a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest,” but it turned out to be a great read from a great writer. Well done, Mark!

    Book was confusing at times going or hopping from character to character. Amazing what a one leg can do, as well as a wife thousand of miles away. Book was not as good as his previous ones.
  • Awesome!

    Great read! More of these to hold me over until the next Gray Man release. Just Don’t let Amazon do to Duffy what they did to Gentry …
