What you need to know before your trail

Six months ago Mitch Rapp was an ordinary college student. When the Pan Am Lockerbie bombing devastates the lives of over 270 passengers and many families grieving, Mitch reacts more than most – he wants revenge.

It’s at this time that the CIA are recruiting a team of black ops agents who are to work separately from the CIA and carry out missions and assassinations of known US enemies.

Mitch sees the perfect career ahead of him and a way to really get out in the real world and fight and kill for what he believes in

Travel Guide

The horrific and true life event of the blowing up of Pan Am flight over Lockerbie will be forever etched on the minds of many people around the world. This is the event which starts off the trail of revenge and retribution of one college student who will soon become the American Assassin of the title.

The journey towards becoming a black ops assassin is a long, arduous yet fascinating glimpse into the skills and grit these people must need to have and the information they need to know – how to avoid being shot and how to kill being two of the most obvious. No surprise that most of the other ‘student’s on the course are from ex military backgrounds apart from actual student Mitch. The training process is hard and tougher than you can ever imagine and evokes the mind control and stamina that these people need and the skills training must go through.

At the lake house they were allowed to speak only Arabic. They honed their fighting skills with virtually every conceivable weapon.

First assignment? Off to Istanbul in order to kill a Turkish arms dealer who  sold the explosives involved in the Pan Am disaster.

“As planned, Rapp was the first one to arrive in the former capital city of the Byzantine Empire”

Then off to places across Europe – Hamburg, in Germany, Switzerland leaving a trail of destruction in his wake. Moscow soon follows…

Final destination? Beirut. This could be the final destination in more ways than one when Mitch finds himself becoming the hunted instead of the hunter.
