Synopsis

An action-packed and all-too-realistic vision of nations navigating the minefield of international intrigue, Protect and Defend is Vince Flynn's most explosive political thriller yet. The action begins in the heart of Iran, where billions of dollars are being spent on the development of a nuclear program. No longer willing to wait for the international community to stop its neighboring enemy, Israel launches a creative and daring operation that leaves a radioactive tomb in the middle of Iran's second largest city. An outraged Iranian government publicly blames both Israel and the United States and demands retribution.

Enter Mitch Rapp, America's top counterterrorism operative. Rapp convinces President Josh Alexander to sign off on a risky operation that will push Iran to the brink of revolution. But when Iran recruits Hezbollah master terrorist Imad Mukhtar, and a CIA effort goes disastrously wrong, Rapp and Mukhtar are set on a collision course that threatens to engulf the entire region in war. With the clock ticking, Rapp is given twenty-four hours, no questions asked, to do whatever it takes to stop Mukhtar, and avert an unthinkable catastrophe.

I enjoyed this book, like all other Vince Flynn books, they keep you on the edge of your seat.

BookLender review by James on 2008-01-08 21:48:17

Wow, what a spellbinding book. Every book from Vince Flynn is always better than the last. In Protect and Defend you find yourself getting involved in the plot, trying to help Mitch Rapp and his fellow anti-terrorists. Because the language is not kid appropriate I had to listen to it with earphones when my children were around. Needless to say, they were surprised when they’d hear a sudden outburst from dad telling someone to duck or how to find the bad guys. I listened to this book while sitting in the driveway, working at my home computer, and even while cooking dinner. I am rating it with 5 stars. I can’t wait until the next book by Mr. Flynn.
