Kill Shot by Vince Flynn- Book

Kill Shot: An American Assassin Thriller | [Vince Flynn]


Kill Shot: An American Assassin Thriller

I am very glad to say my favorite super spy is back!  For anyone that has not read Vince Flynn's series with lead character Mitch Rapp you are in for a treat.  If you liked the tv show 24 with Jack Bauer you will like this series.  In fact Flynn wrote for the 24 series for a while.  Mitch Rapp is the same type of no nonsense man as Jack.  Tough as nails.  If there are only 6-8 bad guys in his way he doesn't bother calling for backup. Here is a link to the series of books if you want to take the audible route.

Kill Shot is the second prequel to the earlier books.  Young Rapp is making a name for himself with the good guys and also bad guys by the way he takes out the terrorists.  When a job in Paris goes bad and five men with machine guys bust in during a hit he barely escapes with a bullet in the shoulder.  He knows it was a trap but does not know if it's the bad guys or possibly someone back in the CIA.

Rapp hides out in Paris from the terrorists trying to track him down, local police and other CIA agents sent in to find out what happened to them.  The CIA guys are not Rapp's biggest fans.  They are jealous of his success and are happy to see him fail.

Lots of action.  Plenty of politics within the Paris police and also back home in the US.  This book like all of the other Mitch Rapp books flies along.  You just can't wait for the next section to come.

Good book I clearly can't recommend enough.
