    Dopo decenni di spietata Guerra fredda, gli Stati Uniti si trovano in una posizione sempre più vulnerabile. Thomas Stansfield, veterano e capo della CIA, sa che l'identità del prossimo nemico è più sfuggente che mai. Per combatterlo con le sue stesse armi chiama la sua protetta, Irene Kennedy, e il suo vecchio collega, Stan Hurley, per formare un nuovo gruppo di agenti sotto copertura. Ma quale uomo è disposto a uccidere per il proprio Paese senza indossare una divisa? Irene lo troverà dopo l'attacco terroristico di Lockerbie: 270 vittime in una fredda notte di dicembre e tutti i loro familiari colpiti da una tragedia per cui non sembra esserci conforto. Uno di loro è Mitch Rapp, che ha perso la donna che amava. Ma non cerca conforto. Vuole i colpevoli. Sei mesi di intenso addestramento e Rapp è pronto: dietro lo sguardo d'acciaio dell'ultimo eroe della nazione si nasconde un giovane uomo pronto a diventare un assassino americano.

    Quando la CIA invia Mitch Rapp a Parigi, il giovane agente di talento non immagina che la sua missione non seguirà i piani prestabiliti. Incaricato di eliminare fornitori pericolosi del terrorismo, Mitch riesce a localizzare il suo obiettivo, ma l'operazione quasi gli costa la vita. È chiaro che qualcuno lo ha tradito, ma questa persona ha avuto accesso a informazioni riservate mai scritte. Le indagini delle autorità francesi non aiutano, anzi complicano la situazione. Le opinioni su Mitch Rapp sono divise anche all'interno della CIA: il neofita, che lavora con un freddo professionismo, ha già superato tutti durante il suo addestramento, e la sua sorprendente efficacia preoccupa i superiori, temendo che dopo un fallimento possa diventare una minaccia. L'unica a fidarsi di lui è Irene Kennedy, la sua mentore, disposta a rischiare tutto per lui. Inoltre, il nemico chiave che ha sabotato l'operazione è ancora vivo e non ha rinunciato al suo obiettivo di eliminare Mitch. L'agente deve ora salvare se stesso, potendo contare solo sulla sua amata Greta, che non lo abbandona nonostante i pericoli.

    Rancorous political infighting surrounds the selection of a successor to the dying head of the CIA just as Mitch Rapp, the agency's top operative, embarks on a dangerous mission to take out a well-known German industrialist believed to be supplying Middle East terrorists with highly sensitive equipment critical to constructing a nuclear bomb. When Rapp's ultimately successful mission is compromised from within, ailing CIA director Thomas Stansfield puts his imprimatur on the efforts of his chosen successor, Irene Kennedy, director of the agency's Counterterrorism Center, to identify the powerful interests both inside and outside the agency that wanted Rapp to fail. The motive soon becomes clear; there are people who'll stop at nothing to remove Kennedy from the helm of the agency after Stansfield dies. One thing they didn't count on was Rapp's survival, and now he's a lethal weapon whose sights are fixed directly on the most powerful among them. This is a strong, swift thriller, a bit predictable (the senator in the black hat has dogs named Caesar and Brutus) but nonetheless involving. Author Vince Flynn sustains the dramatic tension from the opening paragraph to the last; in Mitch Rapp, he's got the makings of a promising series hero. --Jane Adams

When Joe “Rick” Rickman, a former golden boy of the CIA, steals a massive amount of the Agency’s most classified documents in an elaborately masterminded betrayal of his country, CIA director Irene Kennedy has no choice but to send her most dangerous weapon after him: elite covert operative Mitch Rapp. Rapp quickly dispatches the traitor, but Rickman proves to be a deadly threat to America even from beyond the grave. Eliminating Rickman didn’t solve all of the CIA’s problems—in fact, mysterious tip-offs are appearing all over the world, linking to the potentially devastating data that Rickman managed to store somewhere only he knew. It’s a deadly race to the finish as both the Pakistanis and the Americans search desperately for Rickman’s accomplices, and for the confidential documents they are slowly leaking to the world. To save his country from being held hostage to a country set on becoming the world’s newest nuclear superpower, Mitch Rapp must outrun, outthink, and outgun his deadliest enemies yet.

    An unprecedented and terrifying bioterrorism plot threatens to kill millions in the midst of a divisive presidential election in this new thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling Mitch Rapp series. A toxic presidential election is underway in an America already badly weakened by internal divisions. While politicians focus entirely on maintaining their own power and privilege, ISIS kidnaps a brilliant French microbiologist and forces him to begin manufacturing anthrax. Slickly produced videos chronicling his progress and threatening an imminent attack are posted to the Internet, intensifying the hysteria gripping the US. ISIS recruits a Mexican drug cartel to smuggle the bioweapon across the border, but it’s really just a diversion. The terrorist organization needs to keep Mitch Rapp and Irene Kennedy distracted long enough to weaponize a deadly virus that they stumbled upon in Yemen. If they succeed, they’ll trigger a pandemic that could rewrite the world order. Rapp embarks on a mission to infiltrate the Mexican cartels and track down the ISIS leader who he failed to kill during their last confrontation. But with Washington’s political elite increasingly lined up against him, he knows he’ll be on his own. “In the world of black-ops thrillers, Mitch Rapp remains the gold standard” (Booklist, starred review).
