#1 internationally bestselling author Vince Flynn delivers the young, hungry, and lethal Mitch Rapp at the onset of his career as a CIA superagent.

In the year since the CIA trained and then unleashed him, Mitch Rapp has been steadily working his way through a list of men, bullet by bullet. With each swift and untraceable kill, the tangled network of monsters responsible for the slaughter of 270 civilians in the Pan Am Lockerbie attack become increasingly aware that someone is hunting them. Rapp is given his next target, and finds the man asleep in his bed in Paris. In the split second it takes the bullet to leave Rapp’s silenced pistol, the trap is sprung and he finds himself in the fight of his life.
     The next morning, nine bodies are discovered in one of Paris’s finest hotels—among them the Libyan oil minister. Back in Washington the finger-pointing begins in earnest as no one wants any part in what has become an international crisis and potential embarrassment for the CIA. Rapp’s handlers have only one choice—deny any responsibility for the incident and pray that their newest secret weapon stays that way.
     Rapp must avoid capture or die quietly. One person in the group, however, is not prone to leaving such important things to chance. Rapp has become a liability, and Stan Hurley will not allow Rapp to be taken alive by the French authorities, even if it means killing him. Operating on his own and outside the control of his handlers, it will soon become clear that nothing is more dangerous than a wounded and cornered Mitch Rapp.
     In Flynn’s newest page-turner, the stakes are higher than they’ve ever been as Mitch Rapp embarks on the journey that will turn him into America’s most deadly asset. The nonstop action in this shockingly realistic political thriller will keep your pulse pounding till the very end.

Perfunctory. Flynn can be a good writer, but not in this effort. This book felt rushed and superficial. Little or no character development. Things fall into place too neatly. I would not recommend.

Rogerfromco

Kill Shot - good but somewhat predictable. This is my first book by this author. It was a good read, but somewhat predictable. My favorite authors are Stephen King and Tom Clancy, both of whom do much better jobs of character development and putting in unexpected twists into the story lines. This was entertaining, but I'm not likely to rush to read another book by Flynn.

Kill Shot. This is my second Mitch Rapp story. After American Assassin (which I thought was really slow) I was kept busy and interested for the entire read. I'm looking forward to more of this Author's Mitch Rapp stories.

Derek Cooks

Thriller to the end. First book I've read front-to-back in 48 hours or less, in a long, long time. Nice job, Mr. Flynn!

Kill Shot. Loved it as I did all Vince Flynn novels. So sorry we haven't another to look forward to!

Killshot. My new favorite character

Batavia Norm

Kill shot. Very disappointed with the ending....with only 2/3 of the "book" read....the final third of the book is nothing but advertisements for other books already written. Book previews are FREE at the Apple Store.....grrrrrrrrr

Kill Shot. This was an excellent read. i couldn't put it down. I was drawn into the book and time just slipped away. You will not regret taking the time to watch this story unfold in living color in your mind.

Walkintall26

Kill Shot. Interesting but choppy. At times the narrative just marks time, wandering lazily. Much different than Flynn's previous works. Still, a good read, if not a compelling one.

SFRANKLINPOPE

Quick clever read. A little complicated plot but you’ll get it and the book a quick page turner to get you to a surprising end

John cal

Kill Shot. It was fair not a lot to it,and at times very predictable.

Rbav8s78

Fast paced and realistic thriller!. Vince Flynn did it again with a realistic, fast paced, thriller.

BillTh

Kill Shot. This was the worst of the Mitch Rapp novels. I can not believe Vince Flynn would write such a filthy language book. Story was good but language destroyed it. I wonder if he would let his kids read it? I hope not. Hopefully next one is cleaner.

Guru8008

Vince Flynn is the best. Truthfully, I just keep reading his Mitch Rapp books over and over. There's an integrity that aligns with my concept of justice, which keeps me glued to the pages. I must say, the actual world needs more Stansfield, Kennedy, Hurley and Rapp!

Wofhrbxi

Kill Shot. Fantastic plot for a spy thriller, and the character development is good. But I’m hoping the writing style matures in the later books.

Mungred

Flynn at his best. Read all his books, second time with this one, a great read.

Gaijin1

Incredible. I literally could not put this book down and ended up reading it in 2 days. Genius plot and turn of events hope to see another book soon. Wow what a series.

Bamiam1

Awesome book. This book is well worth the cost and the time.

OakMan100

Great Book - No thought to the Ending. The book was great but the end was not thought out at all. But maybe I should say well thought out if the goal is to buy the next book. Book held you all the way to the end if you can call it an end. More like the the middle!

Gumbidammit

Gumbi. I loved it dammit!!

Lang9924

I’m hooked. Thoughts of bouncing around the series after book 1 but went for the progression. After this one, I’m down for the entire series. What an incredible writer and story teller. RIP Vince.

Nelson Menendez

Amazing. Another great book. I can not wait for the next one. Vince Flynn has a true gift.

JINTS24

Amazing. Great book! Enjoyed having Stansfield back, its great to see how he works, and also to get some more back story on Hurley. I was very excited when I came across rafique aziz, but I was really looking forward to reading about how he gave rapp the scar on his face. Probably my only dissapointment. Can't wait for the next book to be written.

Wmcodylawrence

Great Book. It's a classic action book

Rocko3807

Outstanding. I couldn't put this book down. A great read.

I Rooster

Great read. This book was a great ride from the start and just kept going. The story was real, believable and fast paced. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Kevin7503

Very good. Intriguing quick read. Jumps around a bit, but settles into a great plot.

T-Reviewer

Needs more punch. Average at best in the international intrigue / spy thriller genre. Character development lacks originality. Plot is hum-drum and predictable. This is the first Vince Flynn book I have read and maybe the last.

Good story, but . . .. Nothing about secondary characters. What happened to them?

JAMS643

Love the story not the foul language. I love the characters, story line and Mitch Rapp came to life, you could almost see him in person. Bought and read all of them, but why the "f" words have to fly so often is just beyond me. I do live in the real world, I know the words are used by many and have 3 nephews in special forces and know they testosterone it up an the word flies, but really......having to see it in print a jillion times??? I read multiple authors of series writing and guess I may have to stick to those. We shall see.

Kilroy164

Par for the course. As usual Mr. Flynn does a great job of keeping the reader wanting more. When the pilot anounces the final desent and the electronics are to be turned off, I curse myself for not buying the hard copy. Flynn has a style all his own that keeps the reader turning page after page until the climactic but inevitably ungratifying ending. The next book in the series is eagerly awaited and will undoubtedly contain just as many intricate connections, detailed research, and pulse elevating tension. As always, well done.

IROCK44

Fun and Exciting!. This is a quick easy read and full of action. Love the characters and suspense.

Mitch Rapp fan

Just ok. This was probably my least favorite Mitch Rapp novel. Hope Vince returns to form in the next one.

Gertieboy

Kill shot. Hard to keep the characters straight but was well written and kept me turning the pages.

Sad1436

Kill Shot. Excellent paper-turner!

Ghost13579

Why the bad reviews?. People need to realize that Vince was undergoing a lot of serious medical issues with cancer during his time of writing this book. That will seriously drain ones thinking capacity when creativity is needed most. Plus the time he had to balance with his family. His series is amazing. Who cares if this one a little of his normal path. It's an outstanding book regardless. And they had better do the movie right. I fear they will butcher Rapp and make him look like Bond. Rapp doesn't do monkey suits.

Mjm11983

Not my favorite. Not my favorite Flynn, but I still enjoyed it.

John Smith 2

Kill Shot. John Smith2. A great book. High drama. Interesting to the end. A real page turner.

This was a great Book!. I have read all of Vince Flynn's books and each one is even more of a page turner than the last! He keeps you on the edge of your seat with every chapter!

Nicklesack

Another great one in the long line by Vince Flynn. The way with which the Mitch Rapp series flows has me completely and I no doubt will be completing the series. This is just great writing, plain and simple...highly entertaining throughout.

B Ahlquist

Awful. I did not like this book at all, too many characters, slow paced. So happy to be done reading this!

Vince Flynn is the best. Vince Flynn is the best. Action, plot, character development -all in one package. A page turner. Can not wait for the movie!

Kill Shot. It was fabulous ....hard to put down ....I love the Rapp character ....can not wait for the next book... Was it the best .... Maybe would quit reading ...did not want it to end,,,, Rapp has to go on

Navy Rob

Kill Shot. Though I normally love Vince Flynn and his character Mitch Rapp, this book left me feeling let down. After a great start full of mystery and intrigue, the book continues to build the suspense and conflict. Then it just ends abruptly. This left me with a lot of unanswered questions. I really hope the next book clears up these questions.

Obvious1y

Yay. It feels selfish but I'm glad Vince is feeling better - it was a long wait for this book and totally worth it. Bummed that Lee Child, Flynn and Connelly can't provide me with a new book every 2 weeks.

Rockinrony63

Kill shot. Loved it another nail biter! Can't wait for the next one and the one after that!

Kill Shot. Vince Flynn, I just want to thank you for sharing your awesome gift. I have read all your books twice and I will eventually read Kill Shot again. Great book once again. I read the book in two days. I can't believe that you wrote this in the middle of your treatment. I'm bummed that have to wait until next year for the next book. As for the one star folks due to download issues! Really???

10beers

Love the series!!. I love Vince Flynn books, the series is fantastic. Should totally make a movie!

Eazyrooster

Great book. Little Annoyances.. This has been a great series of books. Very entertaining. I blew through the entire Mitch Rapp series in a few weeks. Highly recommend all of the books to any action, spy, or military novel fans. All of the books always have a couple tiny technical issues that really bug me. In this one it is the 18 round magazine capacity in a Beretta 92f. No one made 18 round mags for it until about a decade after this book takes place. There is always an issue like that - which is mentioned multiple times - that messes up a very thoroughly researched book. But, I guess thats the difference between a fun spy novel and a Le Carre spy novel.

Dbsjfnebdbwcs

Great action and a tight plot!. Enjoyed reading this installment.

Epgravelle

Pure heart pulsing. As always Mr. Flynn it was amazing I couldn't put it down, I have read every single one of these books and what a series! I enjoy every last word, I am disappointed when it is over and I have to wait for the next adventure! Thank you for hours of enjoyment!!!

JimAtherton

Just too good!. I'm a huge fan of Vince Flynn's books, this latest definitely lives up to my expectations. I loved it!

Jaedpejr

Kill shot. Love Mitch Rapp. First book on the iPad, loved it.

Moxckf

kill shot. Half this book was a self serving commercial for the author and publisher. What a disappointment!! I hope other authors and publishers don't resort.GOOD BYE MITCH RAPP!!

Edwcarter1

Solid. This book was perhaps Flynn's best Rapp thriller, and I was very entertained with the storyline and character development in relation to his previous Rapp novels. If you haven't yet read of Mitch Rapp, this is a great introduction to him as it is a prequel to the previous novels.

ColinCy93

Awesome. I never read anything outside school and this book caught my attention. Loved it the entire time and always held my attention.

Stevesmith195

Kill shot. It was good but ending lacked a little. Story just stopped

TheFan67

Great. I couldn't put it down.

Forresttb1

Kill Shot. After reading Flynn's last book American Assassin, I feared that Flynn had hit the so called "wall" that writers eventually hit and was done. That was by far his worst work and was completely ridiculous. Being that Kill Shot was it's sequel, I was very apprehensive about giving him a second chance. I'm happy to say I am happy that I did. I was very relieved in the fact that Flynn really knocked this one out of the park. The characters and story line were believable and action packed. He did a great job of carrying the characters in and out of various situations and kept the plot entertaining. Perhaps not his best work in my opinion, but it was one of his better ones. This is a good read that afterwards you will not feel like you wasted your time or money. Very relieved that Flynn can still write.

Witherell12

Way too short!!!. I typically love his books but this one was so short it made me never want to purchase anything he writes again!

Bigslap

Disappointing. I have purchased and read all of the Mitch Rapp books. This one was disappointing in that it was a short story at a book price. I guess I am glad I read this last one last, otherwise I would never have read the others!

Hynote

Kill Shot. Great read!!! Very suspenseful and intriguing!! I am now a great fan of Mitch Rapp!! Can't wait to get the next book and read it!!

WinPro

Story is compelling.. But.... The publisher included chapters from most if not all of his previous books. While reading it I was under the impression that I had about 200 pages left. When it says 430 of 640 pages left I was shocked when I reached the end of the book. I can't see how the publisher would do this in print form, why would they do it in electronic form?

Zae757

Good Read. This was a well written book and I would recommend this book to anyone. As long as you enjoy action, you will enjoy this book.

AJCESQ

Kill shot. Another amazing Vince Flynn novel. I love Mitch Rapp!!!!

RLb52

Kill Shot. I have read all of Vince Flynn's books. I suppose the vigilante approach satisfies my bent for justice toward unrepentant evil. This book had the same formula (of course) that's what the Mitch Rapp character is about. So that's what kept me reading. What I didn't like about this novel was the constant profanity. This is different than the earlier novels. I will probably become un-Rapped if future books continue in this style. So for this reason - 2 stars.

S diggy

Kill shot. Disappointing. I have every Vince Flynn book, but should have waited and read the reviews. This is like a prequel, I guess Vince needed to fulfill a contract. 400 pages of other book's synopsis, waste of money.

Bean238

Kill Shot. Thought it was an excellent book. Keeps on the edge of your seat the whole way through.

Vigilance247

Great!. Absolutely loved this book! Thank you Vince!

JodiHarri

Kill Shot. Awesome! Mitch Rapp never disappoints!

SSG Cwhitty

Kill Shot. Kill Shot hit the spot. Like the others in the series, quick read. A real page turner. Great job Vince.

Fight51

Wow. Just finished the best book ever I read a ton and this surpasses all forget Shakespeare forget Clancy . Flynn is king of the storytellers long live the king

Googleyea

Kill Shot. Plot - way more fun than your every day humdrum asassain book. Characters - does good job on character detail so that theymatter to reader. Will read more of his books.

Douggefreshvt

Good not great. I've read every Vince Flynn book he's written and I think this was probably one of the weakest. Its still good, just not great like the rest. I have been waiting for this to come out since I finished reading the Mitch Rapp series in order back in September. This was definitely a good continuation of the franchise but I found that after all the careful buildup to the climax of this story, the end came on much too quickly and was far too short. It seemed very rushed and left me with a 'that's it?' feeling. I hate to be critical because I find Vince's books to be the absolute best spy novels out there...it just didn't seem to live up to the bar he has set with the rest of his body of work. I hope there will be another one released soon!

Ninjaneer0816

Great, as always. Mr. Flynn continues an excellent series with the addition of Kill Shot. Written with the same excellence as all the other books in the series.

War_Hammers

Kill shot. Another great Vince Flynn novel. Mitch Rapp is stunning! Fantastic Read!

Foman123

Vince Flynn delivers as usual. I am a die-hard Vince Flynn fan, having read all of his books thus far. Kill Shot is a great continuation of the Mitch Rapp story, and continues to show why Rapp is my favorite character in literature. It is also amazing that Vince Flynn was able to write this while battling cancer. The book is clearly not his best, but it is a great, solid Mitch Rapp tale, replete with everything you would expect from this great author. However, the book is short and the story ends quite suddenly (though satisfyingly). I was fine with the story, but I think it was a dirty publisher trick to include excerpts from all of the other Mitch Rapp novels to make the book appear to be longer than it is. Be aware before buying: literally one-third of the total page count is excerpts from other books. It was a disappointing and unwelcome surprise.

Ferrells4

200 pages of books I've read?. What a disappointment. The book was great, but over and done far sooner than I expected. Why do that?

Chschwall

Awesome book!. This book was amazing. I literally could not put it down. I originally bought it to keep me entertained during my flight but quickly became addicted. Now that I am finished I will be purchasing Flyyn's "American Assassin" (Mitch Rapp #1).

PTCDADO5

Kill shot. Best one yet. I have read them all and am starting to read them all over again.

Pilothere

Kill Shot. Very disappointing ending. Also, whats up with the references to previous books. A little confusing if you hadn't read any of his precious works. Never experienced that before. The ending of Kill Shot was so disappointing I started reading on thinking there must be more to the ending.

Rontuu

Thumbs Up. Good read with tons of action. Only criticism would be that the end seemed a bit rushed. Two thumbs up though!

Lalj

Kill shot. Worth the wait !! One of his best !

Jouxpane

Fast and Fabulous. Loved it.

GigaPan

Surprisingly Totally Mesmerizing. Better than Shakespeare … the ultimate Shakespeare tragedy with an ending that Will himself could never had come up with.

Mirolator

Stunned at 70%!. Great writing as usual. I waited for this book for so long. Purchased on release date. While reading it I savored every word. At around 69% complete, I settled in for a long read to finish the book. Then 5 min later I was done. Extremely abrupt ending with no epilogue. Remaining 30% filled with excerpts from all previous novels. Just get it at the library.

Leslie Shokes

Kill Shot. Great read. If you read the other Flynn books first, some of the suspense is lacking since you know that Rapp has done so much more and that Stansfield and Kennedy have taken on new roles. This is the book to read first if you never read a Flynn book before then read the others in the order that they were published to give more understandable flow of the characters.

Rooney72

He's got to be better than this. I gave him two stars because of his health issues. Otherwise, he gets one star. This was my first Mitch Rapp book, and I downloaded it because it seemed like a popular read. Big mistake. Simply an awful book--poorly written, cliche characters in obvious situations, and no real suspense because everything was so contrived and unearned I just didn't care. You want to read suspense with some quality, pick up Daniel Silva or Robert Crais. This guy, I'm sorry to say because I know he has health issues, this guy is a hack.

Tjader26

What a waste of money. Small lead story and the a REHASH of all the other books? Rip off and I'm ashamed of apple to even sell this book without a "reader beware"

TopFuel9.9SSL

Kill Shot!. First I had no issues with the download; hopefully the issue is resolved for others to enjoy this book. Second Kill Shot was an excellent read. It was very interesting, intense, had some sarcastic humor; it was hard to put the book down for me.

Ansky24392

Fix the preview chapters. The book is 4 stars, however I am giving a one star rating because of the 150 pages of previews at the end. I have read all of Flynn's books and did not pay for Kill Shot to read 150 pages of the first chapter of each of his previous novels. Remove this now.

Menama333

Fantastic. I have read Every book in this series and Kill Shot did not let me down. Mr Flynn has once again elevated Mitch Rapp to the ultimate Super Hero. My only regret is that the story ended so soon. I cant wait for the series to continue and see what Mr. Rapp is up to. Congrats Vince on an outstanding book

To the one star's

Disappointed!. I truly loved all of Vince's books. This was a 'kill shot' for me. After several chapters, I asked myself, "why is Flynn wasting space...". Amazing drop off the cliff when the book ended and we went in the BS advertising! Agree with others, good bye Mitch and Vince. Major bummer.

Rafterboy

Classic Mitch Rapp. Flynn takes you on another great Mitch Rapp thrill ride.

Balewis015

Awesome read!. Typical Vince Flynn! This book is awesome! Action packed and will keep you turning pages! Vince has hit another home run with this installment of the Mitch Rapp series.

JohnJayWolf

Kill shot. I had to delete the book 5 times and re-load it. Text was missing, whole chapters missing. It was tiresome to keep having to re-load so many times. When I got to the end, very abruptly, there were hundreds of more pages. They were teasers for his first books. It was a waste of space for me. I have read every book he has written (in order). ,
