About this listen
Bristling with authenticity and authority, White Lie is military-thriller writing of the highest calibre.
John Winter thought his flying days were over. But when his new life falls victim to dirty, distant war, Winter’s unique skills, honed over years in the military, mean someone’s going to pay. The CIA black-ops wing is only too happy to let a former British combat pilot, SAS man and mercenary with nothing left to lose make sure they do. Sent on a covert, deniable mission to South America, Winter faces a ruthless and powerful enemy. Success or failure will come down to his ability to lead a rag-tag air force from the cockpit of a lethal but battleworn British jet fighter: the English Electric Lightning F6.

Excellent Yarn ...
An interesting scenario but the author knows his stuff. Well read by Malk Williams... Good technical descriptions add to the story.

A must read.
A fantastic book and performed just brilliantly. It’s fast paced and action packed. The characters have real depth and I made an instant connection with them. If you are a fan of Tom Clancy or Mike Lunnon-Wood you will love this. I will be recommending this to all my friends!

Fast paced and good Storyline
Escapist fiction is all about good triumphing over evil, as far as I'm concerned. And this meets that criteria.

human story, no superhero semantics
Great story, winter isn't a superhero but a retired operator with lessening physical powers helped by mental strength from age and experience.

Stunning, intense, gritty, superb narration
Wow, what a brilliant story. Intense, gritty with superb detailed morally grey characters. John Winter ex soldier, ex mercenary has his retirement destroyed by a brutal act, and seeks a brutal revenge. I loved it, a work full of military detail, slow and intense build up, plots within plots, where nothing and no one is quite what they seem. what really enhanced the story is the flawless narration by Malk Williams who nails every accent and there are many and keep you listening with a great voice. i have already bought the rest of the trilogy.

Far fetched & too political
I got board not just with the politics but with all the flying sequences clothed acronyms

More twists than the road from Malaga to Ronda
What a story. Very well written & excellently narrated. Highly recommend listen. Can’t wait to listen to more by this author.

Wouldn’t bother
Not a great story and the characters were nigh on impossible to get behind in my humble opinion. I finished it but was totally disengaged by the end. Wouldn’t recommend.

Not for me
I couldn't get into the story, I was over half way through, had to stop, the storyline didn't make sense and too many characters I didn't buy into, just wasn't for me.

Weak story with poor performace
While the narrator has a nice voice, he is clearly not familiar with the genre, mispronouncing common words. Moreover, he has only one American accent and gives it to multiple characters. I listened ti the end but wish I hadn't in retrospect. Might interest those into aviation.
