About this eBook

An unprecedented and terrifying bioterrorism plot threatens to kill millions in the midst of a divisive presidential election in this “gut punch of a tale that exploits our greatest fears” (The Providence Journal) from the #1 New York Times bestselling Mitch Rapp series.

A toxic presidential election is underway in an America already badly weakened by internal divisions. While politicians focus entirely on maintaining their own power, ISIS kidnaps a brilliant French microbiologist and forces him to begin manufacturing anthrax. Slickly produced videos chronicling his progress and threatening an imminent attack are posted to the internet, intensifying the hysteria gripping the United States.

ISIS recruits a Mexican drug cartel to smuggle the bioweapon across the border, but it’s really just a diversion. The terrorist organization needs to keep Mitch Rapp and Irene Kennedy distracted long enough to weaponize a deadly virus that they stumbled upon in Yemen. If they succeed, they’ll trigger a pandemic that could rewrite the world order.

Rapp embarks on a mission to infiltrate the Mexican cartels and track down the ISIS leader who he failed to kill during their last confrontation. But with Washington’s political elite increasingly lined up against him, he knows he’ll be on his own.

Another stellar and white-knuckled thriller, Lethal Agent proves that “Mitch Rapp is the hero we need, maybe now more than ever” (The Real Book Spy).

Ratings and reviews

I see improvement with each new Mitch Rapp novel written by Kyle Mills. I thought his first attempt to keep the series going was well done. He continues to impress me with each new novel. Filling in for Vince Flynn was never going to be easy but Kyle has handled the challenge very well. This series has always been a one or two day read for me because I just can't put the books down. In Lethal Agent the story line flows and is easy to follow. You can picture each scenario and the characters and settings involved. I gladly recommend this book to family, friends, and fellow book lovers.

Kyle Mills has found the right mix for his Mitch Rapp. This one really reminded me of Vince's work! A must read for any Vince Flynn fan

Great addition to the series. Read it in a day and loved it. It did feel a bit rushed but over all phenomenal. I can't wait to read the next book. As much as I hate to say it though I look forward to the end of the series because time has finally caught up with Mitch Rapp and we couldn't have asked for someone better to keep the series going for as long as it has. I'm excited to see how this ends! Even if it takes a couple more books!
