Unthinkable by Brad Parks

Fast and fun thriller with an unusual premise.

Nate and Jenny are not the typical family -- he stays home with their two pre-school age daughters while his wife, a lawyer, makes the big bucks. Both are fine with this arrangement until the day when their peaceful suburban life is imploded by the intrusion of a powerful and secret consortium. When Nate is kidnapped and given an explanation, he is stunned to find out that he alone has the ability to stop a billionaire's apocalyptic vision from happening and save the lives of millions of people.

I love a book that gets off to a quick start with lots of action and a fun story line. Even though you might have to suspend disbelief a bit to buy in, it is very entertaining and enjoyable. The author creates a lot of tension with the reader wondering if Nate will do what is asked -- or not. All told, a very satisfying novel and a great one to pick up when you are in the mood for a movie in your mind.

Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer for this e-book ARC to read, review, and recommend.

This is a standalone and is not part of any series. I do plan to go and check out some of his other novels.

Genre - suspense thriller, action
