Summary

The New York Times number one best-selling author.

When Russian president Maxim Krupin discovers that he has inoperable brain cancer, he’s determined to cling to power. His first task is to kill or imprison any of his countrymen who can threaten him. Soon, though, his illness becomes serious enough to require a more dramatic diversion - war with the West.

Upon learning of Krupin’s condition, CIA director Irene Kennedy understands that the US is facing an opponent who has nothing to lose. The only way to avoid a confrontation that could leave millions dead is to send Mitch Rapp to Russia under impossibly dangerous orders. With the Kremlin’s entire security apparatus hunting him, he must find and kill a man many have deemed the most powerful in the world.

Success means averting a war that could consume all of Europe. But if his mission is discovered, Rapp will plunge Russia and America into a conflict that neither will survive.

Bravo Kyle Mills and George Guidall!!!

As a long-standing Mitch Rapp/Vince Flynn fan - it’s fantastic that Kyle Mills is continuing the late Vince Flynn’s legacy with such excellent and entertaining stories. I am sure Vince Flynn would be delighted to know what capable hands he has left Mitch Rapp in and furthermore we have a return to narration by the incomparable George Guidall who reads the story with such class and quality. These books get me through many a long car journey and Guidall’s long history with the Mitch Rapp novels come through in the telling. This was a welcome fresh angle on the new Cold War scenario and I couldn’t stop listening. Cannot wait for the next one and I pray the narrator is Mr Guidall!

Top notch escapism, but don't skip the first books

like Jack Reacher, Mitch Rapp is a force of nature. don't skip the earlier books though, I made that mistake and found the writing of these later books lazy, but if you carry the prequels with you, they lend weight and increase enjoyment

Excellent

Kyle Mills has done an excellent job. Very exciting as always. Please don’t stop writing Mitch Rapp novels. My only complaint was the narrator who I found difficult to follow and quite muffled.

Rap back to his very best!

At last he is back - well written and brilliantly read by GG. His is the only voice I can relate to as MR. Highly recommend. Good to have Mitch Rapp back in full flow.

Timely

In May 2022 you do wonder whether some of this is closer to the truth than could have been foreseen when this was written …

Red War

Storyline is incredibly scary with what is happening in Ukraine at the moment. A great tale as normal though.

However, a couple of very minor points: There is no PM of England. The Prime Minister is PM of the United Kingdom. Also,
the narrator can't seem to pronounce lived. He pronounces it as lieved. Is that normal for American English? If not, can someone let him know please.
