Publisher's summary

On a busy Washington morning, the stately calm of the White House is shattered in a deadly terrorist attack on the executive mansion. The president is evacuated to an underground bunker, but not before nearly 100 hostages are taken.

Mitch Rapp, the CIA’s top counterterrorism operative, is sent in to take control of the crisis and determines that the president is not as safe as Washington’s power elite had thought. Indeed, Rapp has made a chilling discovery that could rock Washington to its core: someone within his own government wants his rescue attempt to fail.

Hear Mitch Rapp, the CIA's top operative, battle global terrorism in more of Vince Flynn's political thrillers.
©1999 Vince Flynn (P)2011 Simon & Schuster

Critic reviews

"Endless intrigue... Flynn mixes in a spicy broth of brutal terrorists, heroic commandos, and enough secret-agent hijinks to keep the confrontation bubbling until its flag-raising end." ( Publishers Weekly)
" Transfer of Power emerges in its sense of authenticity, depth of research, and almost seamless dramatic scenario....One of Flynn's finest skills as an up-and-coming young master of the genre of political thrillers is his ability to create a cast of compelling characters." ( Bookpage)

Great story

While I prefer George Guidalls narration I think Sullivans performance is good and gets unnecessary hate. Transfer of power is a great Mitch Rap story

Very good

Not sure why people were grumbling about Nick Sullivan the narrator I’ve heard him do other stories he did a fine job on this one.

What if…

This is definitely an excellent addition to the Mitch Rapp series. Such a suspenseful, well crafted drama, taking place right into the White House! Great character development. I only deeply regret the disappointing narration. Throughout the experience I kept thinking: what if it had been George Guidall! How much more enjoyable it would have been. It’s truly unfortunate for me, being a huge fan, because this is my 4th time listening to these books. This time around though I increased the speed to 1.3 which made it bearable.

Mitch Rapp rules.

I like the other operatives in this genre but no one does it better than Rapp.

A great crawl around the White House

This is a very interesting story. The suspense keeps you engaged while the action keeps you riveted.
