Crossposted at WordPress, Blogspot, & Librarything by Bookstooge’s Exalted Permission Title: Act of Treason Series: Mitch Rapp #7 Author: Vince Flynn Rating: 3 of 5 Stars Genre: Action/Adventure Pages: 348 Words: 116K Synopsis: From the Publisher Fallout from a horrific Washington explosion has just begun -- and so has CIA superagent Mitch Rapp's hunt for a killer with a personal agenda. In the final weeks of a fierce presidential campaign, a motorcade carrying candidate Josh Alexander is shattered by a car bomb. Soon after the attack, Alexander is carried to victory by a sympathy vote, but his assailants have not been found. When CIA director Irene Kennedy and Special Agent Skip McMahon receive damaging intelligence on Washington's most powerful players, they call on Mitch Rapp -- the one man reckless enough to unravel a global network of contract killers on an explosive mission that leads back to the heart of our nation's capital...and the inner sanctum of the Oval Office. My Thoughts: After the last book, Consent to Kill, where I rage quit because the author took the easy way out and killed off Rapp's wife and unborn child, I needed a time out with this series. A couple of months seemed long enough and so I dived back in, not sure what to expect. Thankfully, I didn't get Rapp immediately jumping into bed with either a femme fatale or a dusky heroine. The romance was nil and Rapp is shown to be pretty unstable. He's still able to perform his job but he's starting to age (I believe he's 39 in this book) and he's simply in denial about the tragedy. I thought Flynn did an excellent job of showing a man who is cracking up. I really feel like killing of Rapp's wife and baby was a mistake by Flynn, as I was looking forward to how he was going to balance the whole “killing machine vs family man” dynamic he had going. This book, while not redeeming that, at least didn't make it greater by having Rapp turn into the stereotypical action/adventure character of a bedhopping manwhore. ★★★☆☆ I have not been doing a good job of adding books to librarything and reviewing them. I am adding a batch of them right now. I guess it is good as it is at the half way point of the year and I update librarything's profile every six months. I like Mitch Rapp so gave this four stars. I reviewed the notes I took while reading it, but it did not remind me of the plot. After reading a few reviews I remember the book. A good one. 1981 members; 3.97 average rating; 3/12/2021 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
