Executive Power

In Vince Flynn's "Executive Power," the legendary counter-terrorism operative Mitch Rapp finds his world dramatically upended when his identity is publicly revealed by the President, hailing him as a hero in the war against terror. No longer the ghost in the machine, Rapp is thrust into the global spotlight, making him a prime target for every terrorist organization from Jakarta to London. Forced to consider a quieter role, Rapp's respite is short-lived when a covert Navy SEAL mission in the Philippines goes disastrously wrong, suffering a devastating ambush. Evidence points to a high-level leak within the U.S. State Department and the Philippine embassy, suggesting a deep-seated betrayal. However, a far more sinister plot unfolds, involving an elusive assassin with connections to the highest echelons of power in the Middle East, intent on igniting a catastrophic war. With the world scrutinizing his every move and his anonymity shattered, Rapp must navigate a treacherous landscape of international intrigue and domestic betrayal to unmask this anonymous foe and once again protect the world from the brink of terror.
