It's just seven days before Memorial Day, and a spike in CIA intelligence has pointed to a major terrorist attack on the United States. Now it's up to counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp to pull out all the stops. Rapp immediately leaves for Afghanistan, where he leads a special forces unit on a daring commando raid across the border into a remote Pakistani village. Their target: an al-Qaeda stronghold. Rapp and his team soon discover plans for a catastrophic nuclear attack on Washington, DC. Information is quickly relayed back to CIA headquarters, and a nuclear emergency support team scrambles to the scene. In a few hours, the freighters have been located and disarmed and the danger has been averted. Or has it? Mitch Rapp can't shake the feeling that the operation seemed just a bit too easy. Rapp follows his instincts on a quest to unearth the whole truth. What he finds is truly terrifying, and with Memorial Day closing fast, Rapp must find a way to prevent a disaster of unimaginable proportions.

"What can be said about the works by Vince Flynn that have not already been said. his books are always well written keeping the reader or listener on the edge of their seats. This will be the same review for each of his books as that is my honest opinion. Just saving my fingers with copy and paste."

— jeffrey, 1/24/2019" Pulling the story out of current events, Mitch has to fight not only terrorists, but our own denying politicians! The story hits very close to home! The narration was good - middle east, female, male voices. "
— Neil, 5/29/2017" Another thriller from Vince Flynn. Sometimes it seems really possible that the things in this book could easily happen. Keep your eyes open. You could be witness to an attack and not even realize it! "
— John M, 4/23/2017" Mitch Rapp at his very best. He's def one of my fav fictional characters of all time. "
— Richard, 4/30/2011" So good I read it twice, once when it came out, then again, when I went back & read the series from book one... "
— Ali, 3/30/2011" Meh - not the best in the series by any stretch. Never really believed the plot would be successful. "
— Greg, 3/12/2011" Very good. Realistic enough to make me concerned about the plausibility. Definitely interested in more from this author. "
— Danielle, 3/9/2011" Flynn takes some suspension of belief from the reader, but not as much as dan brown. Good page turner for a beach vacation. "
— Daren, 3/9/2011" This was an eye opener for me. I know that this type of "covert"ops happen, but this was a little too real for me. The Author is a great writer and the novel is well written, but a little too much"real" for me. "
— Nancy, 2/27/2011" Great book, interesting from page 1 through to the end. And so much of it rings true. "
— Jim, 2/24/2011" I love Mitch Rapp. I hope there are real Mitch Rapps out there that are savings us everyday! If you like th show 24 you will like this book. "
— Lori, 2/22/2011" Not Vince Flynn's best work. It took over 200 pages for the action to begin but once it took off it was typical Mitch Rapp and who doesn't love Mitch Rapp "
— Nneka, 2/21/2011" Scary but thrilling at the same time "
