#1 New York Times bestselling author of American Assassin—now a major motion picture
The fallout from a horrific Washington explosion has just begun—and so has CIA superagent Mitch Rapp’s hunt for a killer with a personal agenda—in this explosive thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Vince Flynn.
In the final weeks of a fierce presidential campaign, a motorcade carrying candidate Josh Alexander is shattered by a car bomb. Soon after the attack, Alexander is carried to victory by a sympathy vote, but his assailants have not been found. When CIA director Irene Kennedy and Special Agent Skip McMahon receive damaging intelligence on Washington’s most powerful players, they call on Mitch Rapp—the one man reckless enough to unravel a global network of contract killers on an explosive mission that leads back to the heart of our nation’s capital…and the inner sanctum of the Oval Office.

"Pretty good. Perhaps if I hadn't been using it to redirect my attention after my father died, I would have enjoyed it more. Interested in reading the next Mitch Rapp in the series. "
— Lisa (4 out of 5 stars)
“Act of Treason is a fun, finger-blistering page-turner.”
— Star Tribune“The suspenseful conclusion of this terrific story is exciting, satisfying, and totally unexpected.”
— Roanoke Times“Whether you're a fan eagerly awaiting the next installment or a curious reader wondering what all the fuss is about, Act of Treason will make your day.”
— FrontPageMagazine.com" Unfortunately I was disappointed with this book for one specific reason. I think it had probably 10 times as much profanity as all of his previous Mitch Rapp books combined. Having an F-bomb on almost every other page was really disappointing. "
— Dean, 2/17/2014" The book was building up to a big confrontational ending. I was expecting the "bad guy" to be publicly embarrassed, but nope, didn't want the "good guy" to suffer any more. WEAK ending! Otherwise would have been 4 stars. "
— Ryan, 1/31/2014" Another suspense filled thriller from Vince Flynn. I always look forward to these and am never disappointed. "
— Richard, 1/29/2014" Gosh, this was the crummiest book written so far. Just stupid writing, giving you details that were unnecessary and slowed down the pace too much. But an OK story, and one of those you just can't put down no matter how much you don't care about hearing what side Kennedy was sleeping on when she woke up to her alarm clock. "
— Jessianne, 1/27/2014" This series of the character Mitch Rapp is pretty good fun reading. He is a counterterrorism agent for the CIA who goes after the terrorists before they strike. I've read the whole series back to back, so it gets a bit redundant, but with the normal spread of new books in a series coming out it will be less so I'm sure. "
— Beth, 1/26/2014" My first Mitch Rapp novel! I picked this up at a resort in Jamaica and hoped it would be good. I will definitely read some of Flynn's other books now. "
— Anna, 1/23/2014" Too much swearing, too many dead people. "
— Kathy, 1/14/2014" Mitch Rapp saves the day again. Terroists plan to blow up some political candidates just before an election. This book is full of the 'F' word. There is also a lot of violence. "
— Jessie, 1/4/2014" I love this Mitch Rapp series. Great book. Fast paced and thrilling. Subject very much like a Tom Clancy book with probably a little less technical detail. "
— Kim, 12/24/2013" Definitely not my style of book, but so well written and loved it until the very last page! "
— Lyndi, 11/28/2013" I think that this book and all his books are great. They are page turners and very hard to put down because there is so much action the time you open the book. "
— Jim, 11/27/2013" I love, love all/any Vince Flynn books (he is a TC author)! They are fun, enjoyable, easy to read & I simply cannot put them down! Go Mitch Rapp. "
— Katie, 11/5/2013" Great book because it shows the politics and diplomacy that goes on behind the scenes when you break the rules to bring a terrorist to justice. "
— Nick, 9/3/2013" Mitch Rapp can bring the action, for sure. All of the books Ive read so far have not disappointed. I love Flynn's approach, but "Act of Treason" was too predictable. I will continue to read the series, since Rapp is such a bad ass, but Flynn needs to add more surprises. "
— Michael, 6/17/2013" as advertized it was a page turner not my usual fare but I really enjoyed it. "
— Thom, 6/12/2013" Pretty entertaining. Definitely better than Angels and Demons. "
— Kristine, 5/22/2013" One of my favorite Mitch Rapp stories. "
— Dede, 3/31/2013" Another exciting installment in the Mitch Rapp story. Terror at the public level, accusations of corruption in government, and a steady dose of Mitch Rapp justice. "
— doug, 2/16/2013" This Mitch Rapp book is average. Nothing too shocking or graphic (boo) but worth a read if you're into the series. "
— Nikki, 8/29/2012" I didn't think I would like these type of books, but it was entertaining "
— Bria, 4/22/2012" Another great one. Loved the ending. "
— Kenny, 4/14/2012" Good storytelling style, but a little thin on plot. "
— L8start, 1/13/2012" Entertaining for what it was. Editing was sloppy. "
— Jonathan, 12/10/2011" so satisfying to see the bad guys brought to justice. "
— Erin, 7/13/2011" Clever thrilling, plenty of action, and all brought together in a plausible plot. A good airplane read. "
— Sheila, 6/27/2011" I may sound like a broken record on the Rapp books but I loved this one too. Was waiting to see how they were gonna spin it to catch the right people!<br/> "
— Psmoore, 5/12/2011" Easily a 5 star book if it wasn't quite so graphic. Vince Flynn is a master storyteller. "
— Peggy, 5/12/2011" Excellent. Great story line, hard to put down. "
— Nneutz, 5/8/2011" It was ok. Predictable, plot relied on people being dumb and arrogant. Some action, but misrepresents how CIA, FBI, etc work. Doesn't make me want to read the rest of the series. "
— Curtis, 4/30/2011" I can't get enough of his books. "
— Marie, 4/29/2011" Love this character! For a darn good thriller, you just can't do much better then Mitch Rapp. "
— Linda, 3/28/2011" Great pace and I enjoyed the shift of focus from the Middle East to domestic. Language got noticeably rougher in this one though. "
— Christian, 3/9/2011" Another excellent book by Mr. Flynn. The Michael Rapp series is necessary reading to those who think that everybody loves America if we just roll over and play nice. "
— Jim, 2/26/2011" Bad guys murder wife of presidential candidate so he'll win the election. "
— Barbara, 2/17/2011" This book seemed like it was thrown together to fast to fully develop the story. Also, it might have received three stars, but references were made talking junk about Calvin. "
— Mark, 2/9/2011" My first Mitch Rapp book, but if definitely will not be my last.<br/>I love political intrigue. "
— Rachel, 2/8/2011" not as good as consent to kill, but still quite the page turner "
— Bill, 1/24/2011" Another good Vince Flynn. The beginning of his books are so action packed that sometimes the ends seem a little light, but very good book overall. "
— Ken, 1/23/2011" I like action books, but I wasn't as impressed with this one. Too much language and other stuff I could do without. Not the best ending either. "
