SynopsisNow a major motion picture #1 New York Times bestselling author Vince Flynn introduces the young Mitch Rapp as he takes on his first covert assignment. Mitch Rapp was a gifted college athlete without a care in the world...and then tragedy struck. Terrorists attacked innocent American citizens, and Rapp's girlfriend was among the murdered. Two hundred and seventy souls perished on that cold December night, and thousands of family and friends were left searching for comfort. Mitch Rapp was one of them, but he was not interested in comfort. Now he wants retribution. Two decades of cutthroat partisan politics have left the CIA and the country in an increasingly vulnerable position. Cold War veteran CIA Operations Director Thomas Stansfield knows he must prepare his people for the next war. America must confront Islamic terrorism with full force. Stansfield directs his prot g e, Irene Kennedy, and his old Cold War colleague, Stan Hurley, to form a new group of clandestine operatives who will work outside the normal chain of command--men who do not exist. What type of man is willing to kill for his country without putting on a uniform? Six months of intense training have prepared him to take the war to the enemy's doorstep, and he does so with brutal efficiency. Rapp starts in Istanbul, where he assassinates the Turkish arms dealer who sold the explosives used in the terrorist attack. Rapp then moves on to Hamburg with his team and across Europe, leaving a trail of bodies. All roads lead to Beirut, though, and what Rapp doesn't know is that the enemy is aware of his existence and has prepared a trap. The hunter is about to become the hunted, and Rapp will need every ounce of skill and cunning if he is to survive the war-ravaged city and its various terrorist factions. Behind the steely gaze of the nation's ultimate hero is a young man primed to become an American assassin., Now a major motion picture #1 New York Times bestselling author Vince Flynn introduces the young Mitch Rapp as he takes on his first covert assignment.

  • Interesting spy story

    I started reading the Vince Flynn series with Mitch Rapp as the main character because a friend left the third one at my house and I gave it a try. I enjoyed it so much that I am now starting at the beginning of the series and ordering all of them. Interesting spy story that is so far from my life that it is like taking a small vacation.

  • I have read all of Vince Flynn's books twice, I am now ont the third read, including the latest, The survivor by Vince Flynn / Kyle Mills

    All Vince Flynn's stories are excellent. Kyle Mills, who finished 'The Survivor', also did an excellent job. I hope he continues with more Mitch Rapp novels.
