When an ex-Delta Forces operative dies in a car wreck in Miami, the FBI dismiss it as a tragic accident. But Jon Reznick isn’t so sure—especially when he learns that his teetotal former colleague was apparently drunk at the wheel.
Reznick’s one-man investigation quickly enters dangerous territory when it becomes clear that this was merely the first in a series of mysterious deaths. All of the victims are ex-Delta Forces, and all were involved in a top-secret Iranian hit under Reznick’s command. Retribution will not be complete until Reznick is wiped out too.
With Iran’s ruthless Quds Force hunting him down on US soil, assisted by a powerful Mexican drug cartel determined to increase its own foothold in the country, Reznick’s survival is a threat to national security. FBI Assistant Director Martha Meyerstein is not as keen as some government officials to sacrifice him as collateral damage, but the longer Reznick runs, the more audacious his enemies become. Innocent American lives are at risk, and only Reznick’s victory—or surrender—can save them.

Speak the word “bomb” over a cellular phone and a few minutes later the FBI have your details, any public or private security camera can be accessed and the images transmitted in real time to a remote site, face recognition can identify a person at just about any public place and instantly notify the FBI, a hacker can extract information from any database within an hour and cellular phones work underground, in aeroplanes and in the basements of secure buildings
Despite these implausibilities the book is a page turner with lots of action. There is a mystery about who is killing the ex-Delta force team members and why and the author skilfully strings out the resolution to keep the reader interested.
There is much inter-agency rivalry and while there is co-operation at lower levels in the upper levels there is much obfuscation. The good guys are the FBI and villains are the CIA in this rivalry.
There is no romantic action except for a muted attraction between Reznick and FBI Assistant Director Martha Meyerstein. He is a widower with a teenage daughter and she is a divorcee with two small children. After three books in the series it is about time they got together and discovered the joys of blended families, although the possibility is left open on the last page. Martha Meyerstein is an unfortunate name that brings to mind a frumpy middle aged gorgon but it turns out that she is very attractive and in her thirties. There seems to be no glass ceiling in the FBI.
A follow up book.
The trilogy is a very good read.
Resnik is quick on his feet--what we all dream of.
Very plausible plot, with very contemporary bad guys--a modern book.
I highly recommend this book and the trilogy.
I am no expert in literature, but as story of thrilling fiction I have really enjoyed reading all three and expect to read the remaing books in the series

To me, he is not a likeable character,like Jack Reacher, but like Jack he has complete faith in his own abilities and is a true patriot.
I just wish he and and the other characters would not swear so much. It does nothing to enhance the plot and I find it grates even though I am accustomed to foul-mouthed UK.
These stories are best read in order because his character and that of his regular allies develop sequentially.
I am just now reading book one where his daughter is eleven years old. In then last book I read, she was riding a motorcycle and was licensed to carry a gun!

So why is the best ?
What makes a great action book?
Reznick is being chased by the Iranians, Reznick is chasing the Iranian's. So we have a fast paced action packed book with lots of twists and turns. Lots of rather nasty villains.
What also, to me, makes this book better is a larger role in this book for Martha Meyerstein, who we get to know better each book.
So if we have a book that is fast paced from the start, keeps that pace going and keeps the tension going as well as the action and also has nasty villains. Then we have a five star book.


Could have been an interesting series.
