Summary

On a busy Washington morning, the stately calm of the White House is shattered in a deadly terrorist attack on the executive mansion. The president is evacuated to an underground bunker, but not before nearly 100 hostages are taken.

Mitch Rapp, the CIA’s top counterterrorism operative, is sent in to take control of the crisis and determines that the president is not as safe as Washington’s power elite had thought. Indeed, Rapp has made a chilling discovery that could rock Washington to its core: someone within his own government wants his rescue attempt to fail.

Hear Mitch Rapp, the CIA's top operative, battle global terrorism in more of Vince Flynn's political thrillers.

Critic reviews

"Endless intrigue... Flynn mixes in a spicy broth of brutal terrorists, heroic commandos, and enough secret-agent hijinks to keep the confrontation bubbling until its flag-raising end." ( Publishers Weekly)
" Transfer of Power emerges in its sense of authenticity, depth of research, and almost seamless dramatic scenario....One of Flynn's finest skills as an up-and-coming young master of the genre of political thrillers is his ability to create a cast of compelling characters." ( Bookpage)

Change the narrator

Good book, but the narration lets it down unfortunately. Previous books in the series were far superior.

REALY!!!!

Good story but the narrator is terrible, sometimes sounds more like an auto reader.. I’m glad to get this finished as I can’t stand the narrator...

The fast action continues

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

A great reading of the book, nothing left out, and well read.

What other book might you compare Transfer of Power to, and why?

If you like tom Clancy, this is just like his books, but without all the waffle and stuffing, that make them 30+ hours long

What does Nick Sullivan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Great character dialogue.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No, but if there was writing about it here might spoil the book!!!

Any additional comments?

Look forward to the rest of the series.

Great storyline

Next best thing to Jack Reacher, possibly even better? Great narrative and detail for a gripping story.

Top notch covert op. / political thriller.

Mitch Rapp is a formidable character. I have been slow to join the Vince Flynn party but I will be sure to revisit it at regular intervals in the near future. Fans of Jack Reacher, Victor the assassin, John Rain and the like will surely enjoy Much Rapp, especially if the extra political dimension appeals. Narration of the audiobook is very good throughout.
