Publisher's summary

Mitch Rapp and his protege, Mike Nash, may have met their match. The CIA has detected and intercepted two terrorist cells, but a third is feared to be on the loose. Led by a dangerous mastermind obsessed with becoming the leader of al-Qaeda, this determined and terrifying group is about to descend on America.

Rapp needs the best on this assignment, and Nash, who has served his government honorably for 16 years first as an officer in the Marine Corps and then as an operative in an elite counterterrorism team run by Rapp is his choice. Together, they have made careers out of meeting violence with extreme violence and have never wavered in the fight against the jihadists and their culture of death. Both have fought the war on terrorism in secret without accolades or acknowledgment of their personal sacrifices. Both have been forced to lie to virtually every single person they care about, and both have soldiered on with the knowledge that their hard work and lethal tactics have saved thousands of lives.

But the political winds have changed in America, and certain leaders on Capitol Hill are pushing to have men like Rapp and Nash put back on a short leash. And then one spring afternoon in Washington, DC, everything changes.

Using his insider knowledge of intelligence agencies and the military, Flynn once again delivers an all-too-real portrayal of a war that is that is waged every day by a handful of brave, devoted souls. Smart, fast-paced, and jaw-droppingly realistic, Extreme Measures is the political thriller of our time.

One of Flynn's best

I have been a fan of Vince Flynn for a while, but this is one of his best books yet. At one point I couldn't put it down. I laughed, I had my heart strings pulled, I got angry and I cheered Rapp on to get the bad guys. I love a book that can get me emotionally invested in it and this is one of them. The Narrator was top notch too.

Could Mitch take Jack Bouer?

Give me more! If Mitch and Jack Bouer joined forces we would have nothing to worry about.

Mitch Rapp wins again

Another good Mitch Rapp story. I love how he talks about what really needs to be discussed in America. Even though it's fiction, not beyond reality. This is my 11th Mitch Rapp book and I only have two more to go to finish the series. That presents the problem of finding a similar author. Thanks Vince!

Politicians At It Again

When do free republics learn that freedom isn't free? When do politicians learn that radicals are radical?

One of the best!

Out of all the Mitch Rapp books by Vince Flynn, this was one of the most intense I have listened to. A great storyline with some predictability but there are a few surprises as well. The narrator has a great sense of timing in telling the story. I would recommend this book to anyone that loves the action packed world of the Clandestine agency.

Another Masterpiece in the Genre

Vince Flynn in top form with exceptional narration by George Guidall. Ripped straight from the headlines, Vince presents a wake up call to the politically correct in Washington. A wild ride through the gritty work of keeping America safe.
