Executive Power (The Mitch Rapp Series) Paperback

CIA superagent Mitch Rapp's cover has been blown after leading a team of commandos deep into Iraq to prevent Saddam Hussein from joining the nuclear arms race. He was publicly hailed by the president as the single most important person in the fight against terrorism. However, after years of working covertly behind the scenes, Rapp now lives in the glare of the public spotlight, lauded by the nation and an easy target for virtually every terrorist from Jakarta to London.

As special advisor on counterterrorism to CIA director Dr. Irene Kennedy, Rapp is ready to fight the war on terrorism from CIA headquarters rather than the front line. That is, until a platoon of Navy SEALs, sent to the Philippines to save an American family kidnapped by radical Islamic terrorists, is caught in a deadly ambush. The mission had been top secret, so who told the enemy? All evidence points to the State Department and the Philippine embassy.

However, a greater threat still lurks. An unknown assassin working closely with the highest powers in the Middle East is bent on igniting war. Now, with the world watching his every move, will Rapp be able to overcome this anonymous foe and once again keep the flames of war from raging?

In this high-octane follow-up to the New York Times bestselling Separation of Power, Mitch Rapp battles global terrorism in a chillingly authentic adventure from the master of the political thriller, Vince Flynn. The story transports the reader into an intriguing geopolitical puzzle full of deadly motives, covert operatives, and all the true-to-life insider detail we've come to expect from the author. Executive Power delivers shattering suspense with the velocity of a 9mm bullet, as Rapp fights to prevent a catastrophic war.
