American Assassin: Volume 1

Now a major motion picture starring Dylan O'Brien (Maze Runner), Taylor Kitsch (True Detective) and Michael Keaton.

TERRORISTS TOOK EVERYTHING FROM HIM . . . EXCEPT THE NEED FOR REVENGE.

Mitch Rapp was a gifted college athlete without a care in the world . . . and then tragedy struck. Terrorists attacked innocent American citizens, and Rapp's girlfriend was among the murdered. Two hundred and seventy souls perished on that cold December night, and thousands of family and friends were left searching for comfort. But Mitch Rapp is not interested in comfort. Instead, he wants retribution.

Six months of intense training with a clandestine CIA group prepare him to take the war to the enemy's doorstep, and he does so with brutal efficiency. Rapp starts in Istanbul and then moves on to Hamburg with his team and across Europe, leaving a trail of bodies. All roads lead to Beirut, though, and what Rapp doesn't know is that the enemy is aware of his existence and has prepared a trap. The hunter is about to become the hunted, and Rapp will need every ounce of skill and cunning he possesses if he is to survive. Behind the steely gaze of the nation's newest hero is a young man primed to become an American assassin.
