Publisher Description
“The perfect all-American hero” (Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times bestselling author) Scot Harvath is on the hunt for a dangerous killer bent on world domination in this white-knuckled thrill ride from #1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor.
America’s worst nightmare has just become a brutal reality. The most unlikely terrorist enemy of all now holds a knife against the country’s throat. With both diplomatic and conventional military options swept from the table, the president calls upon Navy SEAL turned Secret Service agent, Scot Harvath, to disable a brilliantly orchestrated conspiracy intended to bring the United States to its knees. Teamed with beautiful Russian Intelligence agent Alexandra Ivanova and a highly trained CIA paramilitary detachment, Harvath embarks on an adrenaline-fueled search that spans the world—and leads to a final, deadly showdown on American soil, with a lethal and sinister enemy from the past.

" Audio Brain Candy:<br/><br/>Ho Hum. Poorly developed plot, characters, and setting. Need I say more? Won't be reading more Thor books. Is that his real name, anyway? "

" This book was great. For an authors first book I thought it was an excellent thriller. The only regret I have is the a few character plots were tied up quite fast at the end. I'm ooking forward to reading more in the series. "
