About the Book: Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the CIA is already facing questions from Congress when a brilliantly executed sting operation in Moscow results in the arrest of America’s most prized Russian asset, paralyzing the Moscow Station. Desperate interim director Thomas Stansfield seeks help from Mitch Rapp, a newly minted assassin in the secretive Orion program. However, Rapp is quickly embroiled in a war of his own: when his Swiss girlfriend’s grandfather receives a chilling package containing the severed head of a Cold War comrade and a threat that hers is next, Rapp finds himself on the frontlines of a deadly new conflict between the American and Russian intelligence services.
