American Assassin

After losing his girlfriend in a terrorist attack, grief-stricken Mitch Rapp is consumed by the need for vengeance. Training himself in combat and firearms, he draws the attention of the CIA. Rapp is recruited by Irene Kennedy, a high-ranking CIA official, who sees his potential as a new kind of counter-terrorism asset. Eager to hunt down those responsible for his loss, Rapp agrees to join a black-ops mission and is placed under the tutelage of veteran operative Stan Hurley. Hurley is a tough and uncompromising trainer, skeptical of Rapp's discipline and intent on rigorously testing his new protégé's skills and emotional resilience.

The duo, mentor and trainee, are thrust into an urgent mission when a series of seemingly random attacks on military and civilian targets leads to a pattern hinting at a coordinated plan. This discovery uncovers a rogue faction plotting a deadly geopolitical strategy. With time running out, Hurley and Rapp must use their combined tactics and grit to track down the mastermind behind the impending threat. As they navigate a world of espionage and betrayal, their partnership is tested, and Rapp's personal vendetta becomes intertwined with a crisis that could have catastrophic global consequences.
