Length: 17 hrs and 16 mins

Publisher's summary

Fearless counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp finds himself directly in the line of fire in the latest riveting political thriller from New York Times best-selling author Vince Flynn.

For years, Mitch Rapp's bold actions have saved the lives of countless Americans. His battles for peace and freedom have made him a hero to many, and an enemy to countless more. In the tangled, duplicitous world of espionage, there are those, even among America's allies, who want to see Mitch Rapp eliminated. They have decided the time has come.

Now, the powerful father of a dead terrorist demands vengeance in its simplest form, an eye for an eye, and Rapp instantly becomes the target of an international conspiracy. This time, he must use all of his vigilance and determination to save himself before he can turn his fury on those who have dared to betray him.

Consent to Kill takes listeners behind the headlines and catapults them to the front lines of the global war on terror. It sizzles "with inside information, military muscle, and CIA secrets" (Dan Brown). Vince Flynn mixes military technology with his exclusive knowledge of Washington politics to create a hero that Americans will wish existed outside the realm of fiction.

Critic reviews

"He perfectly measures all of the ingredients for a fast and furious read." (Publishers Weekly)

Great series!

These books just get better and better. I feel like I know these characters personally.

Best one yet

Quite a ride full of actions and fast paced well later out

Best Rapp book yet

Best book in series so far!

I have listened to the 5 books in order of the Mitch rapp series, while all were very good, this was the best. I will continue on with the series. Thank you to VINCE Flynn, and George Guidall may be one of the best narrators I have heard in over 100 audiobooks!

Emotional Rollercoaster

The story is compelling and heartbreaking. It climaxes at Mitch's second life shaking event. I've never been more ready to take on the next audiobook.

Rapp delivers once again!

This has been a breath of fresh air . I thought Rapp was on his way out.. Desk job (sort of) at Langley and married to the woman of his dreams. Thought the action packed series was coming to an end.

Now it will be interesting seeing how he responds and reacts......

Best Vince Flynn book so far.

This is the best Vince Flynn book I’ve heard on audible and I’ve listened to the whole series do far. George Guidalll is the best reader too. Highly recommend.

Another great Mitch Rapp story

I really enjoy listening to this series as an audible book. Good story, well narrated.

Exciting & Heartbreaking all at once

Vince Flynn never disappoints. George Guidall as always, flawless. Usually the Mitch Rapp novels will get the 5 stars from me on each category, and that’s it. No comments cause I just want to get on to the next book, am working, or driving. But this one, I had to literally stop what I was doing to give my feedback and share how much I enjoyed it. Hopefully more Mitch Rapp movies are made. American Assassin did not nearly match up to the books, and the actors that played both Rapp and Hurley, were poorly chosen. I’m thinking Billy Bob Thornton for Hurley (or if you need recommendations, I’ve got an old Army Commander who’s ideal for the role and who actually did the Secret Squirrel stuff). If a movie is ever made based off of Consent to Kill, it’ll have to be minimum a two-part movie because of the complexity and development. But it’ll definitely be worth it. A-MA-ZING BOOK!!! Perfectly written, excellently read/performed.

Jam packed action from start to finish

Another good Rapp story. Thankfully, the reader was not subjected to much of the toxic interactions between Rapp and Anna. We got plenty of whining and complaining from other’s in this story, but thank goodness we didn’t have to listen to Rapp’s darling wife behave atrociously like in the last book. (Female perspective here!)

This is more like what I expect from this series!

Gripping…..and keeps getting better!

My favorite Mitch Rapp book to date. Perfect balance of action, intrigue, heartache, revenge, and even in some small way, redemption. I couldn’t stop listening and was surprised but not disappointed by the resolution!
