#1 New York Times bestselling author of American Assassin—now a major motion picture
Vince Flynn’s “high-energy” (Booklist) political thriller places CIA superagent Mitch Rapp in the crosshairs of an enemy even he did not anticipate.
When diplomacy fails and military intervention is inappropriate, our leaders sometimes take the third option.…Mitch Rapp has been assigned just such an “unofficial” task, targeting a German industrialist who is supplying a notorious terror sponsor. But when the mission is dangerously compromised, Rapp realizes he’s been deemed an expendable asset in a power battle on home turf: the choice of Dr. Irene Kennedy as successor to dying CIA director Thomas Stansfield has many detractors, some who will resort to extreme measures to prevent her from taking the reins. But no one counted on Mitch Rapp’s return…or how far he’ll go to find out who set him up.

"This book was a really great book to read if you're already a fan of Mitch Rapp books. It was kind of a turning point in his career, and it didn't have as much over-seas action as most of the books. If you really only read these books for their action, you might be disappointed by how much of this book was dealing with the politicians. It still had action, and some really important plot developments, but it wasn't my favorite vince flynn book."

“This is the kind of book that gets fans of espionage/political intrigue excited. Lots of action, insider details.”
— Strand Magazine“This is a strong, swift thriller…Flynn sustains the dramatic tension from the opening paragraph to the last.”
— Amazon.com“A high-octane barn-burner featuring the ever-impressive, ever-resilient Rapp.”
— Barnes&Noble.com“Fans of Tom Clancy will enjoy this work of international intrigue…Definitely worth purchasing.”
— Library Journal“Flynn hits his stride in this thriller about high-end Washington politics…[His] high-energy prose sets a terrific pace, and he generates plenty of suspense.”
— Booklist" Vince Flynn is the Tom Clancy but not revolving around the cold war era, and more involved with the Middle east enemy. His books are highly exciting and easy to pick up and listen to on and off. I highly recommend all of his books and may he rest in peace. "
— Will, 4/26/2016" This is my second Mitch Rapp book and enjoyed this one as much as the first. It was engaging and had some intense moments. Not my typical reading material, but enjoyable none the less. "
— Sadie, 2/18/2014" Kept me interested from the first page. "
— Andrew, 1/24/2014" Awesome!!! This was the first Mitch Rapp novel I read that really made me want to read them all in order. I felt like we got to know the main character more personally. Maybe it was the situations he was put in, but I'm anxious to keep reading this series. "
— Christy, 1/21/2014" Very good book! Flynn tells an intriguing story with a mix of very strong characters. The ending left me hanging, though, and now I have to figure out which is the next book in the series! "
— Don, 1/21/2014" This type of book is not my usual fare, but I don't mind reading a "guy" book now and then. This was the first Vince Flynn novel I have read and liked it well enough. It had everything you'd expect from this genre: murder, machismo, politics and a love interest. Not necessarily in that order. There was a nice villain to hate and I think I will continue with this series, just so I can enjoy when he gets his comeuppance. "
— Deborah, 1/15/2014" A very entertaining book. "
— Mark, 1/11/2014" Stupid filler novel for what's coming next in this story arc. Conclusion is a conversation. Dullest thriller ever. "
— Greg, 1/4/2014" Book 3 in Vince Flynn series. LOVED IT! "
— Nikki, 12/26/2013" Such a good spy novel!!!! I need to get the next in the series, quickly . . . "
— Tim, 12/15/2013" This book was okay. I've read quite a few nail-biters in my time but this one didn't keep me on the edge of my seat. It probably could have told the story in 200 less pages. However, it was a fine story and tied up the loose edges neatly. "
