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.

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)

Narrator doesn’t come close to getting the Rapp persona right.

Good story but couldn’t get over the narrators interpretation of Mitch Rapp. Very corny voices. Once you hear Guidall it’s hard to hear anyone else.

Frequent Listener

This one is my favorite. Love the additional characters added into this book. George does a good job as well. Again, best testament is that I didn't want to stop listening. Good book.

Great story, different narrator

I thought the story was great. It took some time to get used to a different voice narrating the story, but it was good.

Good story!

It starts out slow but really picks up. I couldn't "put it down" at the end

Flynn delivers

I'm just beginning this series and this just added more fuel to the fire. Can't wait to get into the next one.
The only drawback was the narrator. I was disappointed. No comparison to the 1st one. Because the story is so good I got I stuck with it and finally got used to it. I'll pass on future titles with this narrator. This series will be the exception.
If you're a Mitch Rapp fan like me you won't be sorry.

Couldn't put the book down

What isn't to love about Mitch Rapp? The development of character and storyline is a little to close for comfort!
