After his last mission collapsed into utter failure, Conor Maguire and his daughter Barb returned to the US only to confirm their worst fears - Conor's friend and longtime handler, Ricardo, is presumed dead. Worse yet, Conor's new boss is none other than the man who ordered the hit, Billy Browning, and he's long held a grudge against Conor.

Teenager Amanda Castle was like a lot of people, posting pictures of her everyday life to a variety of social media sites. Not everyone who viewed her pictures was there to share in her experiences. One was there to steal her profile pictures. A terrorist in Frankfurt was desperate to please his leadership. He planned the perfect attack, one in which vulnerable people would be invited through social media to participate in a flash mob. There, the unwitting participants, thinking they were taking part in a random act of kindness, would find themselves engaged in a random act of terror.

When the pandemic hit, nobody was expecting it to be as bad as it was. The economy barely survived the lockdowns, but it staggered along until civil unrest shattered people’s hope of better times to come. With it being an election year, more and more Americans were waking up to the idea that they truly were behind the curve. The hope was if they did not get sick, run out of money, or could avoid violent mobs, they would be fine.

Lauren Russell often wondered why her father had been so adamant about teaching her skills that most other fathers wouldn't even consider teaching their daughters. Ever since she was little, she had been taught how to live and survive outdoors, and how to use firearms to protect herself and those around her. Some of the training had been a bit extreme. Or had it been? Many of her questions were answered the day the world as she knew it ended.

Publisher's Summary
In his last mission, Conor Maguire was called back into action by his handler, Ricardo, to go after a man who helped facilitate the terror attacks that devastated America. The intelligence garnered in that operation exposed a network of traitors within the American government - officials who had advance warning of the attacks and did nothing to alert the American people. Worse yet, they sought to take advantage of the situation, seeing it as an opportunity to further their own vision of government.
When Ricardo next pays Conor a visit, it's at the behest of a shadowy collective of patriots determined to purge the government of those who sold out the nation. It should have been a simple mission, a short trip to "punch tickets" in the way that Conor had successfully done hundreds of times around the world.
But nothing in this mission will be simple. Conor and his team find themselves thwarted or compromised at every turn. They're pushed to the edge physically and emotionally. When the dust finally settles, their world will be entirely different, the path ahead more uncertain than ever.

Amazing Continuation
There’s less humor, more serious situations in this book. It happens. I do not like where it’s heading with the handler but I’m looking forward to Connor punching him at least once without repercussions...I hope. Kept me in the edge of my seat the whole time!

Great. Not surprising.
Yet another great addition to Franklin Horton's repertoire. The Mad Mick series is probably my favorite. This edition to the series took a weird turn and it hit me a little harder than anticipated because of course, it is fiction. However, one can't neglect the attachment to characters in stories to which the have grown to love. I have some personal foreshadowing I hope happens down the road but the sly dog author has made sure to make it as vague as possible with the potential outcome of the next book. This will not let you down. This book brings a sense of realism to the series. You will enjoy of course.

Shannon Is The Weakest Link
Kevin Pierce's narration is as per usual, fantastic!
As for the storyline...more of Ragus' and Shannon's life before the Mad Mick comes out. Shannon shows more than ever how her self-centeredness makes her the weakest link. Barb is coming more and more into her own as assignments with Connor cause her to utilize all of her skills while gaining more. There are some losses, some gains and two plots full of action running parallel to each other. Never heard of Jim from the Borrowed World series before, so I'll be starting that before moving ahead since Jim and Mick are soon to meet. Sad ending but still excellent!!

not exactly the Mad Mick I know
long dragged out description of a relationship between Rages en Shannon and an idiot with a bat who killes 6 people but cant seem to kill two more to secure his new compound. does not make sense and i wanted to skip this part. Also expected more of the Mad Mick since he is the baddest ass on the planet. no explanation on how Ricardo died. He is a key figure.
