Publisher's Summary

Mitch Rapp returns to make a mortal enemy of Russia in this high-octane installment in the #1 New York Times bestselling series from ‘one of the best thriller writers on the planet’ (The Real Book Spy).

Mitch Rapp hates owing anyone a favor—especially when it’s the world’s most powerful crime lord. But when Damian Losa calls, Mitch is honor-bound to answer.

The Syrian government appears to have created a highly addictive new narcotic that it plans to distribute throughout Europe. It’s a major threat to Losa’s business and he’s determined to send someone to keep him on top by any means necessary. Rapp is the perfect choice for the mission. Not only does he have extensive experience operating in the Middle East, he’s also entirely expendable.

As he crosses into war-torn Syria, Rapp quickly discovers a shocking truth. The new drug isn’t being produced by Damascus to prop up the government’s collapsing finances. Instead, it was created by Russia’s asymmetrical warfare unit, not for profit but as a weapon against the West.

With far more than Damian Losa’s interests at stake, Rapp devises a desperate plan that forces him and his team onto a battlefield where the United States is virtually powerless, and allegiances shift almost hourly. Because if Russia uncovers their plot, it will set off a confrontation between the two countries that could change the course of human history.

Poor Narration

Have been an avid Mitch Rapp fan from the very first book. Whilst the story line of this book was very good, it was difficult to focus and complete the story. The narrator was terrible and not suited to Mitch Rapp. George Guidall needs to be brought back for future books.

What’s happened to George??

Really difficult to enjoy the book as you become so used to how George emulates Mitch, Claudia, Anna and Irene particularly and the new narrator just doesn’t seem to be able to replicate that. Not sure it would be fair to say he’s bad at what he does but a change after so many other great books with one voice is hard to work with.

Not what we have come to expect

The story lacked punch and the ending fizzed out rather than give a sense of satisfaction

Another good yarn

I enjoyed the book but found the new narrator lacking an ability to engage the listener as well as George do. A good storyline and lots of action as Mitch evolves.
The next book will be interesting with a new author!

change of narrator makes it hard to listen to

good story but absolutely devastated that George Guidall did not narrate the book. It really detracts from the story, almost that the new narrator wasn't actually putting effort into the story or a fan of Vince Flynn

Best ever?

Arguably, the best Mitch Rapp saga to date; complex, compassionate, and thoroughly entertaining. Bravo, team!

Good but it's probably time...

There's a limit to what you can do after 25 books or so though it is getting old. You can tell Mitch is evolving as a character still though and there was a lot of reflection on his younger life and I would look forward to having Mitch take on a role like Stan did in American Assassin and 'pass the torch'.

Disappointing

Avid Mitch Rapp fan read all the books found it very hard to get in to. Found it difficult to connect with the narrator and didn’t like the story line but maybe it would have been better with George.
Where’s George?
Listening to all the series you know the characters through George’s narration and bringing in the new narrator just doesn’t do the book justice.

Terrible

The story was dull, the performance was terrible. The worst in the series. I hope they bring back George and the writing improves for the next one. So disappointed.

Lost me with the change in narrator. Story evolving with life, but definitely not enjoyable
