W. E. B. Griffin Direct Action

When the original Presidential Agent is gunned down during a mass shooting, Pick McCoy swears a brutal revenge in this revival of W. E. B. Griffin's New York Times bestselling series.

Charley Castillo, the original Presidential Agent is in Virginia Beach to visit his son when two gunmen appear. Charley is able to thwart a deadly mass shooting, but he is hit and badly injured.

Meanwhile Pick McCoy is at the Naval Academy catching up with some old friends. When the news of the attack reaches him, he senses that this is no random event. While Charley clings to life, Pick searches for the men responsible and in the process uncovers a deadly plot that threatens to strike deep at the heart of American democracy.

Finally a decent successor.

Finally someone who read the old books, loved them and has the skills to write a decent follow up. I love the inclusion of "Killer" Very exiting if you know who that is. More importantly he manages to include the old characters in relevant ways, while introducing new ones all the while respecting the older material. I wish the narration had the depth of character that the old books had but it is at least passable. This book is a treat for those who love Mr Griffin's work and I hope there is more to come.
Over all I'm so happy this book exists.

its ok

the dialogue is so annoying, constant repetitive questions, clueless supposedly smart people, over and over. its an ok story, but i got really tired of the questions ' why'? , 'what'? ,'what do you mean'?, etc,etc.

Characters

I enjoyed the continuation of the presidential agent and the tie in with t the corps series

Awesome book, new character

I am so happy this story line continues, and I hope Charlie Castello remains a core character.
