by Vince Flynn
Mitch is a young athlete who got recruited by the CIA. He has a personal loss at the hand of terrorists and his way of dealing with grief is to get back at the persons who took the love of his life away from him. Mitch is at odd with his trainer Hurley who dislike him from the starts because Mi...
Good book, but that's it. I guess my expectations were too high for this book, but I thought there would be more Mitch Rapp development and a little less time on the characters involved in the financing of the Pan Am airliner bombing.

I have read other Mitch Rapp novels and was now going back to the original. It was interesting to see his origin after having read of his exploits in other novels.

There's actually more, but the other things I've been reading are non-fiction h...
#1 New York Times bestselling author Vince Flynn returns with yet another explosive thriller, introducing the young Mitch Rapp, as he takes on his first assignment. **Before he was considered a CIA superagent, before he was thought of as a terrorist’s worst nightmare, and before he was both loathed...

Two ingredients which this author is dis...
As far as "origin" stories go, this was quite entertaining, if a little cold-blooded. But then again, origin tales tend to be an easy sell since the character, in this case Mitch Rapp, has already been embraced by readers; i.e., Ms Universe has already been crowned and this book is like her victory...
Typical Vince. Not as gripping as some.
