Dead Drops, Cops, And Special Ops: The Novels Of Brad Thor


Listen Later

Dead Fall is the 23rd novel from the mind of Brad Thor. In it, an American performs an operation inside of Ukraine, and, for reasons of diplomatic sensitivity, Russia can never learn about it. Thor's readership has many Republicans who might be opposed to continued U.S. funding in Ukraine. Thor knows this, and he's writing not to convince them otherwise, but to lay out a typically exciting story that may make the stakes and morality more salient to all readers. Plus, $6 billion to release five Americans held by Iran. And ESPN bets.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
