About This Audiobook

Rising Tiger is the twenty-first Scot Harvath novel, deploying America's most lethal operative into India — a nation Thor treats as a politically and culturally complex theater rather than a generic action backdrop. With a threat mounting that previous administrations have refused to confront, Harvath is thrown into a world of competing intelligence services, assassination attempts, and the particular danger of operating without clear allies in unfamiliar terrain. Thor's research gives the Indian setting genuine texture.

Armand Schultz has narrated every Harvath audiobook and delivers the series' signature combination of controlled urgency and character distinctiveness. His command of the action sequences is expert, and at just over ten hours he keeps the novel's political complexity from slowing the momentum. Schultz's Harvath is decisive without being flat — a performance that accounts for why the audiobooks consistently rank among the series' best-reviewed elements.
