I have recently been reading Protect and Defend by Vince Flynn. The main character, Mitch Rapp, is an assassin for America. Although his official title isn't this, that's what the U.S. uses him as. Through chapter 13, Rapp has had a lot of action. In the beginning he kills a man who has committed treason. The man had killed many innocent American politicians. Rapp is such a patriot that he thinks it's okay to kill people as a result. Once he arrives back from his trip, the president invites him to join him on Air Force One. This spooks Rapp because he thinks he's in trouble, but realizes it wouldn't be from the mission because he assigned it to him. Rapp probably thinks the meeting is about how he slept with his assistant on the mission. Rapp's wife recently died, so he is trying to find someone to connect to. The meeting turns out to be about an Afghanistan building holding nuclear weapons being bombed by Israels. This is about as far as I got. I'm interested to see if Rapp goes to Afghanistan.
