Publisher Description
After rescuing the President from kidnappers in Brad Thor’s roaring national bestselling debut, Navy SEAL turned Secret Service Agent Scot Harvath shifts his attentions to rooting out, capturing, or killing all those responsible for the plot. As he prepares to close out his list, a bloody and twisted trail of clues points toward one man—the world’s most ruthless terrorist. One problem remains: Harvath and his CIA-led team have no idea what the man looks like. With no alternative, they are forced to recruit a civilian—a woman who has survived a brutal hijacking and is now the only person who can positively identify their quarry. From the burning deserts of North Africa to the winding streets of Rome, Harvath must brave a maelstrom of bloodshed and deception before a madman’s twisted vision engulfs the world in the fires of all-out war.

"WOW! What to say about the beginning to my love of Scot Harvath. Mr. Thor write military and politics like nobody else. He can take the man off the street, or the secret agent and make them both understand the ins and outs of security and undercover assignments. Hats off to Mr. Thor!"
— Jenna (4 out of 5 stars)
Quotes

“Clancy fans will love this. Brad Thor has packed this riveting and timely thriller with enough military technology, CIA intrigue, and exotic settings to kidnap even the most demanding readers, deprive them of sleep, and convert them into instant devotees.”
— Dan Brown, New York Times bestselling author of The Da Vinci Code -
“If Thor’s second international thriller had any more testosterone, it would grow hair. This follow-up to The Lions of Lucerne is loaded with explosions, gunfights, car chases, and hairbreadth escapes…The story is one bloody episode after another, with a touch of romance and colorful turf battles between the CIA, FBI, Delta Force, and Harvath himself…The well-choreographed action and thrills will keep readers engrossed.”
— Publishers Weekly -
“A blood-soaked sequel to the presidential-kidnapping debut that so arrested critics…Thor leaves little to the imagination when it comes to the cut and thrust of terrorist-busting; the action is relentless and gory, the pacing sublime, as is the authenticity of everything from weaponry to locales.”
— Ottawa Citizen

" Some of the verbal exchanges were a bit contrived, but the mystery was well thought-out and I enjoyed it. "
— Kw, 2/17/2014 -
" Scot Harvath is back, and is as awesome as always. I love a man who can quip it up with a gun pressed to his head. Balls of steel!!!! Can't wait to read more of these fantastic books! "
— Dee, 2/14/2014 -
" Good story. Unfortunately I have read them out of order and would have appreciated them more if the stories were sequential. "
— Jandblock, 2/12/2014 -
" Three stars...I liked it. I'm thinking Brad Thor and I need some time apart after reading two of his books right in a row. Sometimes I just laugh with how perfect Scot Harvath is. Not only does he have rippling pectorals, but he is the top secret service agent in all of the United States. He's also the top agent in the CIA and the FBI and he's not even part of those organizations. I did really like the opening dilemma involving the plane and it kept me on the edge of my seat. Part of me liked Meg, but part of me didn't like how she would just seem to wilt whenever Harvath came around. I was definitely surprised by Nadal's counterpart, and I liked that turn of events. Overall, it was an ok book and I liked it. "

— Rebecca, 12/30/2013 -
" This was another Harvath special. Political thrillers like this are my favorite genre of books. I like these books especially, because they are interesting and are also a quick read. This is the sort of book you would read on vacation. It is fast paced and the hits just keep on coming. "
— Gian, 12/19/2013 -
" Scot Harvath is somewhat of an American equivalent to Ian Fleming's Bond. If you want an easy interesting read, and enjoy spy and suspense type books... then you will probably enjoy Brad Thor's series. "
— Angelique, 12/17/2013 -
