On June 18th, the 7th novel in the James Reece Terminal List series is coming in hot! What began as a traditional prologue became the longest, most in-depth opening in the series to date. It is not only an introductory glimpse into the world, characters and events of Red Sky Mourning that sets the stage for the main narrative, but it is also Jack’s nod to Tom Clancy whose debut thriller, The Hunt for Red October, celebrates its 40th Anniversary in 2024. Jack invites you to listen to the prologue of RED SKY MOURNING read by Ray Porter. Will there be blood? Count on it.
