Publisher's summary

#1 New York Times best-selling author Vince Flynn is back with another nail-biting political thriller that follows the young Mitch Rapp on a deadly mission to hunt down the men responsible for the Pan Am Lockerbie terrorist attack.

For months, Mitch Rapp has been steadily working his way through a list of men, bullet by bullet. With each kill, the tangled network of monsters responsible for the slaughter of 270 civilians becomes increasingly clear. He is given his next target: a plump Libyan diplomat who is prone to drink and is currently in Paris without a single bodyguard.

Rapp finds him completely unprotected and asleep in his bed. With confidence in his well-honed skills and conviction of the man’s guilt, he easily sends a bullet into the man’s skull. But in the split second it takes the bullet to leave the silenced pistol, everything changes. The door to the hotel room is kicked open and gunfire erupts all around Rapp. In an instant the hunter has become the hunted. Rapp is left wounded and must flee for his life.

The next morning, the news breaks in Washington that Libya’s Oil Minister has been killed along with three innocent civilians and four unidentified men. The French authorities are certain that the gunman is wounded and on the loose in Paris. As the finger pointing begins, Rapp’s handlers have only one choice - deny any responsibility for the incident and pray that their newest secret weapon stays that way, avoiding capture and dying quietly. One person in the group, however, is not prone to leaving things to chance. Rapp has become a liability, and he absolutely cannot be allowed to be taken alive by the French authorities. But it will soon become clear that nothing is more dangerous than a wounded and cornered Mitch Rapp.

On the edge of my seat!

From the very first chapter this Mitch Rapp story was compelling and one of those books that you don't want to stop listening to and you don't want it to end. How could Mitch be so careless...then escape like spiderman...he kept me guessing and talking to myself all the way thru...."No Mitch! Be careful"...I really wanted this book to go on longer.

Exciting

Read this book you'll enjoy it. Love this series, lots of action and we love Mitch Rapp.

second time around

wanted to refresh myself before going to watch the new American Assassin movie and I'm glad I did. one of the best series ever!

WOW! This Book Got Me Hooked on Mitch Rapp!

This is my first Vince Flynn book and I am now hooked!! The story is fantastic and is a true page turner. George Guidall is hands-down the best narrator for these stories and is one of the best in the game. I strongly recommend this book and promise that you will be as hooked as I am.

This series is addicting

Vince Flynn, may he rest in peace, has created a James Bond for our generation.

Awesome series

wonderful books well read. Always keeps you on your toes and wanting more. Vince Flynn amazing miss his work.

Great Story and Almost Held Me to the End

I'm quickly loving the Mitch Rapp series. Book 2 does a great job of keeping me on the edge of my seat until about 90% through the book. The reason that I'm kept on edge is because it's a mysterious story of Rapp trying to do his job completely alone because he doesn't know if he can even trust his own government. The end of the story just seemed overly complicated and "reaching." I have no reservations about recommending this book though and look forward to continuing the series. Guidall is an excellent narrator.

Is 33 too old to work for Irene Kennedy? Please.

If I'd read these books in middle school I'd have gone to the farm for sure. And made it. Mitch needs help.

Never a dull moment with this series.

The attention to detail of the trade craft and the in depth exposure of the personalities involved in this dark world is second to none.

Thank goodness for George Guidall.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Please, please, please, have George go back and redo the early books butchered by Nick Sullivan.

What about George Guidall’s performance did you like?

Timing, inflection. He may not have a broad range of voices but he is a first rate reader.
