Silk Road : Code Raven 6 by Lynda Filler is the sixth book in The Code Raven series and can be read as a standalone. If you haven’t read the other books you won’t be confused about whose who because there is a list and description of the characters in the very beginning of this book. This series has been some of my favorite reads. I was super excited about this book. This has a bit of everything from action, mystery to suspense and mystery. I dove right in and was hooked from the beginning till the last page.At times I was on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what happens next. I definitely recommend reading this book and can’t wait to read more from this Author.
SILK ROAD (Code Raven, #6) by Lynda Filler was a heart pounding, action packed page turner, that had me hooked from start to finish.
With each book I feel like it’s building up to something much greater. This one is no different, as strong as the others in this series I was once again, sucked into this fast moving adventure. I couldn’t stop reading, I needed to know what was going to happen and if things would turn out the way I want them. Lynda Filler has a way of misdirecting you, and making your stress levels hit the roof.
I have to say, this series has been a joy to follow, even if it attacks my blood pressure. I will say that though these can be read as standalones, they do follow a connecting timeline and does have connecting plot elements. As with the other books, backstories are pretty much, not apart of the character development. So if you want to know more about Luke raben and his team, then you’re going to have to read the other books, that and, they are all pretty amazing.
With that said, I know I kept this vague, only because with such a fast moving plot, I didn’t want to ruin anything this story has to offer. Or ruin this exciting, heart attack involving, read. So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that you will not be able to put this book down. It will capture you, not only your attention but, your heart and soul.
Happy Reading

Silk Road by Lynda Filler is the sixth book in the Code Raven series and is an action pack, breathe taking story.
The story is fast paced and full of action and traverses through the world with the story, the novel starts with the team enjoying downtime but Himanish is never off the clock and when he finds something happening to young children the team shifts into gear. The team have to put all their skills to the test and find out who is behind the human kidnappings.
You always know that these characters will delve into the mission and put 100% to uncover the people behind these despicable crimes. With the thrill of each twist and turn this book will have you not be able to put this story down. The style of writing keeps you enthralled to the last word and the topics brought up in this story were hard hitting and amazing to read.
I recommend this series and this book may just be my favourite at the moment.
Silk Road by Lynda Filler is book 6 on the Code Raven Series. I have read a few books in the series and have enjoyed reading them.
The books are fast paced and action packed. Silk Road is about children being kidnapped and either sold or used for prostitution. Luke and Luci are spending a few days in his private sanctuary in the Maldives. He has a family who stays there and does the upkeep for him. When their 2 young children are taken in the middle of the night, Luke knows he must act quickly.
Meanwhile in another area, Zach’s good friend Mike
needed help. They were all together in BUDS Training many years ago and kept in touch. Mikes daughter ran away at a young age and now she is reaching out to him because her son has been taken. He’s 13 years old and he is her life. When she calls Mike for help, she knows he’s her only chance. Mike and His daughter Katie have not spoken for about 13 years and when she finally reaches out she tells him she says “Dad, I need your help and bring your friends.”
Children are being taken all over the world but the raven group cannot seem to catch them. Things don’t add up every time they try.
Another teenager is taken but the authorities think it is an ala Kachuu which is a meeting of a bride and groom. However the parents know that is not the case.
Will the Raven Group be able to save these children and reunite them with their families while putting an end to the Russian Mob or will they be to late?
Silk Road by Lynda Filler is the sixth book in the Code Raven Series. Silk Road is filled with action, adventure and lots of mystery. Silk Road keeps you turning the page to find out what is going to happen next. You will not put Silk Road down as you are totally immersed in it. The writing by Ms. Filler is engaging, flows and has many twists and turns. Her characters are well developed and very believable. It was nice to see that the gang was back fighting the many wrong going on in the world. Each book in the series has just gotten better and better. I highly recommend Silk Road as well as the Code Raven Series.
Well Ms. Filler has knocked my socks off once again with one of her Code Raven novels. This is the sixth installment in the series. I have absolutely fallen in love with this series. If you haven’t had the pleasure of reading the other books in the series you should be ok with picking up any book and starting. However, I would recommend that you read them in order for a higher enjoyment of the whole series.
In Silk Road we find the team embarking on another fast paced mission. This happens to be one of my absolute favorites that they have ever been on though. In the beginning all of our characters that we have grown to love are in different places. Luke has taken Samaar/ Luci to the Maldives for a little vacation. Himanish is currently in Geneva working on a troubling and mysterious situation. Here we find out that there are children that are disappearing, and this is happening all over the place. This becomes a globetrotting mission for the team. They will stop at nothing to figure out how to squash this newly discovered sex-trafficking ring. Of course the closer they get the more danger they will find themselves in. What will happen? Can they put a stop to it or will the lives of those they are trying to protect actually be in more danger, and will theirs be over too?
Thanks so much for another fantastic adventure Ms. Filler. I can’t wait to find out what will come next!

Wow what an action packed read this was! I have enjoyed this series so far but I have to say I think this may have been my favourite so far – I don’t think I took my eyes off the page for one minute! I loved the story line – it was engaging, complex, exciting and more. The characters were brilliant and I really likeable. The author really does do an amazing job of bringing her stories to life, her attention to detail is fantastic and I can always imagine what I am reading.
I loved reading about all of the members of Raven again (and great to meet some new ones too). I think I would definitely recommend that these books are read in order so as to fully understand how tight this group are and what they have been through together.
Silk Road is another fantastic read from Lynda Filler and I cannot wait to see what she comes out with next!!
Silk Road: Code Raven 6 by Lynda Filler will keep you glued to the edge of your seat and is full of action and intrigue, mayhem and thrills and is a great next book in the series. I am loving this series that revolves around the Raven Group which is a team of special ops forces. There are multiple facets to this story, leading in a way that they all come together in the end. Lynda characters are well developed and it was great to revisit with some favs and meet some who are new. Who doesn’t like a great book that has everything, from suspense, danger and drama, covert ops and secrets, and life and death situations. It is a fast paced story that will have your heart hammering as we chase around the world to save the children. Lynda knows how to weave her magic and provide us with a story that is full of lots of twists and turns leaving you feeling intense emotions. This book is well written and addicting, with a storyline that is captivating. This book is one you will not want to walk away from. I can’t wait for the next book.
Silk Road was a good 5 star read and book six in the Code Raven series.
There is so much going on in this read, you get pulled in by several different characters.
There is lots of action and on the edge of your seat thrilling moments. The theme of the story is about human trafficking and it just breaks your heart what these kids go through.
The Raven Group were a family with a higher life purpose. Luke would do anything for his family of warriors and misfits.
Luke, Luci and the rest of the Raven group become involved in helping find some missing children. Will they be able to find them before anything bad happens? Luke is also dealing with his feelings for Luci, will he be able to finally open his heart up and find love again?
All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. If your looking for a great nail biting series with lots of detail this is the one for you. Lynda Filler does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. I look forward to reading more from her.
Code Raven: Silk Road is book 6 in this series from author Lynda Filler. Once again she has proven how captivating her storylines and characters are and I can’t wait to see what else is to come.
Lynda Filler has continued to prove how much better each of these reads can be. Silk Road is thrilling, action-packed and full of twists and turns that left you wondering what was going to happen next and left you wanting more. I was totally captivated and entranced by this read and couldn’t put it down.
The characters in which Lynda has created are relatable, real and you can’t help but want to find out more. I like that every book has a different storyline, yet all relate to the same characters, we get to read about old characters and new characters which keeps this book even more enjoyable. My only issue this time was jumping ahead and missing books but with that being said I didn’t feel lost within the story it flowed seamlessly.
This is a brilliant captivating story that is mentally visual in all aspects of the story. Being a quick read you never feel as though the story is rushed you get just the right amount of story, action – and it doesn’t feel as though everything is crammed in to get to the end of the book.
I can’t wait to see what else is to come from this series and just how much better this author stories can get – she continues to prove how incredibly captivating and riveting her books are and how each one connects you more to the characters involved! This is a series I highly recommend not to be missed!
SILK ROAD (Code Raven, #6) by Lynda Filler
5 out of 5 stars
Silk Road in the sixth book in the Code Raven series written by Lynda Filler. I read the prequel on book one and two but missed books three-five so I will be going back to read those books because this is an amazing series. Ms. Filler is an amazing author and this series is dead on in the evil that’s going on in this world. The characters are well written and there banter is amazing. They are not related by blood and come from all across the world even have some difference in beliefs but there is one thing you can count on in this story/series they are a family and want to help save the world.
A new Silk Road train stretches from the eastern shores of Yiwu China to London, England. Its precious cargo is not what’s written on the manifest.
A former Navy SEAL gets a terrifying message from his estranged daughter. “I’m desperate! I need your help, Dad. Bring your friends!”
When two young children are abducted in the middle of the night from Raven’s sanctuary in the Maldives, Luci, Luke, and the Raven Group will stop at nothing to get them back.
A female teenager in Kyrgyzstan is reported missing by tearful peasants. Has she become one of many kidnapped brides? Or is something far more frightening going on? The corrupt authorities ignore the parents’ pleas for help.
We get to see the gang from the Raven group what they do best saving lives.
Highly recommend this story/series…..

Another action filled adventure in the Code Raven series. This is book six and this time the Raven Group is trying to save the world from a sex trafficking ring. Between China, Kyrgyzstan, London and the United States, we travel the world again. With the help of Himanesh, they locate the whereabouts of the missing children. It’s personal once again when two of the children were kidnapped from Luke’s personal hideaway in the Maldives. It is a fast paced book that will have you racing towards the end. I was happy to see Luke and Luci trying to take a vacation even though it got cut short. It would be nice to see them open their hearts and jump into a relationship.
Personal Disclaimer: Make sure that everyone from a spouse right down to the fuzzy little creatures are taken care of because once you start you cannot quit these books.
Hooray, hooray the gangs all here!!
Ms. Filler did not hold back and punches with The Raven Group. Luke was planning some R&R for Samaar/Luci and himself on some remote little island where they can get some R&R and some romance as well. Guess who plans got postponed! That’s right The Raven Group. They are on case to find a missing teenage girl. This will be a great case for them because it has corruption written all of over it. With Ms. Filler’s book they get better and better. This one was off the charts. I cannot wait to see what she has in store for The Raven Group next.
This is the first book I’ve read in this series and while it is the sixth book, I was able to easily distinguish who is who based on the guide on page one and the detail given with each character’s introduction. I never had that “lost feeling” while reading SILK ROAD.
Even though this is fiction, it makes me sad that all of the elements of the story are, in fact, true and “we” have just turned a blind eye to it because “it’s not my family”.
The story held my attention from the very first word to the very last. It has intrique and suspense. It’s well written and flows quickly from beginning to end .
At times, this story reads like a travel journal taking us to beautiful and dangerous countries. There are so many locations this book takes place and the author does an amazing job introducing each locale.
I recommend this book and will be checking out the others in the series.

Silk Road is the sixth book in the Code Raven series by Lynda Filler. I know I have said this before in this series, but I think this one of the best series I have read this year. The stories are all short, fast paced, and full of action. Although this is fiction, the story is relevant and believable in this day and age. This series should be read in order because one book follows the next and if you read them all you will have the full backstory, that being said if this is the only book in the series that you read you won’t be lost, but you won’t get the full effect.
As with the past books in this series, this book features the members of the Raven Group. This story starts out with the Group looking for missing children but turns into a much bigger case of child exploitation. This action fillstory had me hooked from the very first page, and I couldn’t put it down till I read the last. I love how Ms. Filler pack so much excitement into these short installments, and hope this series continues long into the future. I highly recommend this book, series and author.
This is actually the first book in the series that I have read, but I had no trouble following along. There were enough references to the past that this can certainly be read as a stand-alone. I read it straight through in one sitting. I couldn’t tear my eyes off it. It is an action story with heart.
I received a free advanced copy and am posting my honest and voluntary review.
I’m still catching my breath. This action packed thriller had me white knuckles for most of its pages. The characters are strong and engaging. The author does a fantastic job drawing the reader immediately in and having them quickly become invested in the fate of each character. It was fast paced and richly detailed. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will gladly recommend it to others.

“What do you know about the Silk Road?”
“Are you referring to the old Silk Road trading routes? If you are, the Silk Road was an ancient network of trade routes connecting the East and West which for centuries was central to the cultural interaction between them. The Silk Road also refers to both the terrestrial and the maritime routes connecting Asia with the Middle East and southern Europe. Today, of course, it’s the new China Railway Corp route to England. It will cut ground shipping to half the time of the maritime routes. The cost of shipping goods into Europe will fall considerably making Chinese exports/imports even more viable to its trading partners in Russia and Europe.”
“Hmmm.”
“Why do you ask?”
“I heard Ivanov’s men talking about the Silk Road. I’m not sure of the significance, but it’s too much of a coincidence to ignore. Let me search around and see what I come up with.”
Silk Road is the sixth book in the Code Raven series by Lynda Filler. As we have discovered in the previous book/s, this series centres around the Raven Group, which is a top-secret, special ops team who help to keep the world a safer place- and the series chronicles the action-packed missions they embark on. This latest mission may just be the most challenging one yet.
The story starts with Luke whisking Samaar(Luci) away to the Maldives for a much-needed break and Zach headed to Washington Dc after a call from his friend Mike, a former Navy SEAL buddy, who needs his help. Himanish is in Geneva doing what he does best, keeping tabs on everything, and starts to put some worrying pieces together. Children are going missing from all around the world, mostly from remote areas, leaving their families devastated. So, when these abductions hit closer to home for members of the team- Luke Raven will do everything in his power to get to the bottom of it all and return the children to their families. This truly is an international mission, taking the team from Canada to Paris, The Maldives, Geneva, Washington DC, China, Tel Aviv, London, and even to Kyrgyzstan in central Asia as they try to uncover who’s been behind a wave of human kidnapping. The team pulls together, digging deep, using all their skills, contacts and networks to follow the trail- as the case becomes more complicated than they ever imagined.
We catch up with characters we know and love, as well as meeting some new ones. I love that each book in this series allows me to get to know the (recurring) characters a little bit better each time. I love watching the relationship between Luke and Samaar/Luci (and adorable Alice) develop more in this book. The little bit of romance and some touching and tender moments helped to lighten the darker topics covered in the storyline.
This is definitely one of my favourites of the series, so far. The story was an action-packed adventure, with dramatic developments, danger, abduction, intrigue, suspense, human trafficking, drug cartels, life and death situations, high stakes risk, covert ops, high-tech gadgets, social and political issues, camaraderie, friendship, bonds, romance, depravity, heart-aching situations, and so much more
I am really enjoying this series, which just seems to get better and better with each new instalment! I am really looking forward to my next adventure with the Raven Group!
Thank you, Ms. Filler!
I enjoyed seeing the Raven group back and the adventures they get themselves into. This is a fast moving story that kept me on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what will happen next or if the group will find the missing teenager. This story is full corruption, suspense and mystery. Is there a link between the missing brides and the missing children? Will the group be able to find them before it is too late? I highly recommend this book to find out if the innocent can be saved.
Silk Road by Lynda Filler is the sixth book in her Code Raven series. This is a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat and reading right to the end.
This book has a complex and intriguing story line. There are many different things going on. Things that at first might not seem linked. But not everything is quite that clear cut.
The author takes you on a journey full of twists and turns. The writing draws you in from the start and makes sure not to let you go at all. I found that I had to read this book in one sitting because I wanted to know what was going on. And to read about all the “old gang” again was great. It is always nice to step back into such interesting and well established characters. This was another great addition to the series.
