After the largest terrorist attack in US history is narrowly foiled, the sole enemy survivor has only one name to provide his interrogators: Ghulam Samedi, a fugitive hiding in the rugged mountains of China's Xinjiang Province. As part of the CIA's newly-minted targeted killing program, David Rivers and his team are tasked with assassinating Samedi. But once they are inside China, there will be no backup, no air support, and no escape--only a handful of local assets with dubious motivations. The location is known for its opium smugglers, violent separatist movement, and heavy deployment of Chinese secret police. Which is exactly why Rivers' team of former mercenaries was assembled for this covert operation. They are unilateral, unattributable, and if things go wrong, utterly expendable. As Rivers embarks on his most challenging mission yet, he will stop at nothing to hunt down Samedi...the last target standing between him and a sinister conspiracy with global implication Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

A David Rivens Thriller (Shadow Strike #2)
Riveting Read ~ Could not put it down ~ Read into the wee hours of the morning as I had to see what would happen and how the story would end!
What I liked:
* Stepping into the shoes of military men and seeing, feeling, and experiencing an Op as if I were there, too.
* The team: five intrepid, highly skilled, lethal, dedicated, admirable, and intriguing men that worked together seamlessly.
* The location and learning more about the geography, people, and politics
* That it felt real
* The fight sequences and how they played out
* Being able to see this story as if it were playing out on a big screen in a theater
* Wondering if it will become a movie…it easily could be one
* The plot and writing
* That the “bad guys” were not the usual ones
* The split-second decisions required and seeing how the team made those decisions
* Hearing David’s first-person experience and a more omniscient version of the other four team members experiences
* Seeing what was happening back at Langley while the team was on the ground
* Hearing about David’s family in memories he shared/flashed back to
* The setup for the next book in the series
What I didn’t like:
* Exactly what and who I was meant not to like…
* Having to wait for book three in the series
Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series/by this author? Definitely
