"If you're not already on the #PeterAsh train, jump aboard now. #TheWildOne is a beautifully written novel, rich with deep, complex characters, full-throttle action, and a superbly realized setting. @_NickPetrie_ is doing headliner work."--Robert Crais, author of A Dangerous Man "Nick Petrie's exceptional writing has earned him comparisons to many of the thriller-genre greats, but The Wild One announces that period has come to an end: Petrie is setting the bar, not reaching for it."--Michael Koryta, New York Times -bestselling author of Those Who Wish Me Dead "This kinetic, breathless masterpiece illustrates why Petrie is here to stay."-- Publishers Weekly "Lots of authors want to be the next Lee Child, but only Petrie has a real shot at that title. His Peter Ash series is every bit as good as the Jack Reacher books, and his latest--the first set outside of the United States--is his finest work to date. I read this one in one sitting and was hooked from the very first page."--The Real Book Spy "Novelist Lee Child has blessed Ash as a character who merits comparison to his own Jack Reacher. What further distinguishes Petrie's novels is the depth of care he brings to writing about Ash's significant PTSD... The Wild One is also a love letter to Iceland and its people...Petrie's novel characterizes it as a beautiful and civilized country. If Ash must have a dark night of the soul somewhere, he couldn't have picked a better place."-- The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, "Nick Petrie's exceptional writing has earned him comparisons to many of the thriller-genre greats, but The Wild One announces that period has come to an end: Petrie is setting the bar, not reaching for it."--Michael Koryta, New York Times -bestselling author of Those Who Wish Me Dead

Synopsis
War veteran Peter Ash tracks a murderer and his criminal family through the most forbidding and stark landscape he has ever encountered, in the latest thriller from the bestselling author of The Drifter . Losing ground in his fight against post-traumatic claustrophobia, war veteran Peter Ash has no intention of getting on an airplane--until a grieving woman asks Peter to find her eight-year-old grandson. The woman's daughter has been murdered. Erik, the dead daughter's husband, is the sole suspect, and he has taken his young son and fled to Iceland for the protection of Erik's lawless family. Finding the boy becomes more complicated when Peter is met at the airport by a man from the United States Embassy. For reasons both unknown and unofficial, it seems that Peter's own government doesn't want him in Iceland. The police give Peter two days of sightseeing in Reykjavik before he must report back for the first available seat home. . . and when they realize Peter isn't going home until he accomplishes his mission, they start hunting him, too. From the northernmost European capital to a rustbound fishing vessel to a remote farm a stone's throw from the arctic, Peter must confront his growing PTSD and the most powerful Icelandic snowstorm in a generation to find a killer, save an eight-year-old boy, and keep himself out of an Icelandic prison--or a cold Icelandic grave., War veteran Peter Ash tracks a murderer and his criminal family through the most forbidding and stark landscape he has ever encountered..., Struggling with PTSD, veteran Peter Ash has no intention of getting on an airplane - until a grieving woman asks him to find her grandson. The woman's daughter has been murdered. Her husband Erik is the sole suspect. Finding the boy becomes more complicated when Peter is met at the airport by a man from the US Embassy.

    Seller shipped out the DVD miniseries called THE KENNEDY'S to me very quickly and it arrived earlier than listed and well wrapped up for the journey. They have great buy two get one free sales and their prices are great. The dvd set was listed as good and it showed up looking as new. I keep coming back to them for their veritery, prices, shipping speed and communication. Don't know yet if it's a good miniseries, but it is a good seller to buy from.

    Item came on time and as described, have already done business with seller as this was a replacement for a refunded defective copy of the same set of DVDs. This copy worked great. The seller refunded my defective copy without hesitation and gladly allowed me to buy again. I will buy from this seller if they have any other DVDs I ever need. This is the kind of seller you want to buy from. They communicate well too.* The DVD set was a fantastic price too, thanks again.!

    Item as described; plays well; quality as described; proper communication; fair price; timely receipt; could have packaged the dvds in a small box rather than a flimsy bag that causes the cases to get broken and chipped and sometimes the dvds get broken. Other than the flimsy bag, everything was great!

  • Peter Ash Series

    I struggled with this review. I so wanted to give a 5 star because Nick is a genuinely phenominal story teller, truly gifted. His story lines are absolutely A+! His research supporting the story-line is excellent. But his prolific use of profanity is totally unneccesary to the story and (in my opinion) detracting and distracting. I went with the reviews by Lee Child and David Baldacci who are some of my favorite authors who likened Nick's Peter Ash hero to their similar champions. Because of their stellar story telling that employs limited use of profanity and vulgarity and their endorsement of Nick's novels, I bought all of his books in one fell swoop having read none of them prior to my purchase. I have read the first two in the series (The Drifter and Burning Bright) and am debating ...

  • Well-paced intriguing mystery with a compelling main character.

    This is one of a series of books featuring Peter Ash. But this can be read as a stand-alone book. It is my favorite of the series because it takes the character out of his comfort zone in America and to Iceland where he has to work almost completely on his own to find and save a missing child. It is well-paced and the supporting characters are given enough depth to stand on their own without having been part of the series. And, honestly for me, I was glad to see Ash without his usual supporting characters because i don't believe he needs them. I would like to see another story in this series like this one- using just the main character to solve the mystery. I give this story 5 stars. I have no cons with this book.
