    About this audiobook

    On the heels of Once a Spy, which PW hailed as a "wildly original debut [with] an action-packed story line," Keith Thomson returns with a breakneck thriller that's twice as explosive as the original.

    In the tradition of Robert Ludlum, with a witty twist, Thomson's second novel featuring a former spy and his son once again poses the question: What happens when a former CIA agent can no longer trust his own mind?

    Charlie and Drummond Clark are now in Switzerland, hiding out from criminal charges in America and using the time to experiment with treatments to retrieve Drummond's memory. When NSA operative Alice Rutherford, with whom Charlie has fallen in love, is kidnapped, the Clarks must dodge a formidable CIA case officer and his team to get her back.

      Not believable.
    • 5/5
      Drummond and his son Charlie are back at another fast paced action adventure this time not only running from the people who want to kill them but also having to rescue Alice. The payment is they have to find a WMD in a washing machine that Drummond used as a cover. Not knowing when Drummonds mind would remember or who were their friends was driving Charlie crazy. If you don't know who Charlie, Drummond, or Alice are then you haven't read the first book Once A Spy. Do yourself a favor and start at the beginning with the first book. That way you can appreciate Twice A Spy. I can't wait for the next installment.

      Ex-spy Drummond Clark and his son Charlie are back with another adventure in Twice a Spy.After successfully eluding CIA agents intent on neutralizing them, they are now hiding out in Switzerland where Drummond is receiving experimental treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. Just when they think they might get some rest and relaxation, Charlie’s girlfriend, Alice is kidnapped by a group of bad guys who want Drummond to provide the location of a nuclear device they think he has hidden in Martinique. Meanwhile the CIA is still searching for them and they are now facing criminal charges if they go back to America.This is the sequel to Once a Spy which I reviewed last month. It’s not necessary to read the first book to enjoy this one. The author does a nice job inserting background information when needed. Simply put, Drummond Clark, a retired appliance salesman, was a CIA spy who possesses sensitive information that could be deadly if it falls into the wrong hands. A group within the CIA feels he can’t be trusted due to his failing memory and wants to eliminate him and also his son, Charlie.This book is a quick, enjoyable read with short chapters, and non-stop action. As in the first book there are lots of things blowing up, car chases, boat chases (we end up in the Caribbean) and shots fired. More a satire than a serious thriller, this book is a lot of fun and would make a good summer read.
