Read - Kill Shot, Vince Flynn

There is something about a formula.  It's comforting.  Like a Sunday meal at your parents house.  You know it won't be surprising, but it will be satisfying.  That's Vince Flynn and his Mitch Rapp books.  Mitch Rapp is America's killing machine; a 007 without the flashy gadgets.  He knows who America's enemies are and he's in the world to kill them.  Simple.

In this book we've gone back in time to see how Rapp came into being.  He's in France and he's taking out one of America's biggest problem terrorists at the time - Libya.  But there's a problem, they know he's coming.  Rapp finds himself trapped, injured and alone, wondering who set him up and who he can trust.  

The book is fun and fulfilling - like a Sunday meal at your parents house.  It just isn't surprising.  Rapp makes it through and the bad guys loose.  Did I spoil desert?
