Memorial Day

In Vince Flynn's "Memorial Day," the relentless counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp finds himself embroiled in a race against time to thwart a catastrophic attack on U.S. soil. With Washington D.C. abuzz with preparations for the World War II memorial unveiling, Rapp's instincts scream danger despite the festive atmosphere. Mounting CIA intelligence points to an imminent and devastating terrorist plot. Acting swiftly, Rapp leads an elite special forces unit on a daring raid into a remote al-Qaeda stronghold in Pakistan, where they uncover detailed plans for an assault on the nation's capital. However, the apparent ease of the mission leaves Rapp with a gnawing suspicion that this might be just the tip of a much larger, more insidious conspiracy. He must dig deeper, questioning every piece of information and trusting only his gut, as the fate of thousands rests precariously in his hands, with Memorial Day just seven days away.
