Description

The secretary of state has been kidnapped by Islamic extremists and his only hope for survival is a reconstituted Presidential Agent team in this revival of W. E. B. Griffin's New York Times bestselling series.

Secretary of State Frank Malone has been kidnapped from his Cairo hotel—his security detail wiped out. President Natalie Cohen is left with several unacceptable options. It's time to think outside the box, and that can only mean one thing: the revival of the Presidential Agent program.

Cohen calls for Charley Castillo to come out of retirement to direct a new Presidential Agent, one Captain P. K. "Pick" McCoy, USMC. Charley may be too old to kick down doors and take names, but Killer McCoy is just the man to get the job done.

Together, they will track the kidnapped secretary from Cairo to sub-Saharan Africa. The only problem is that one man can't hope to win against an army of terrorists...good thing there are two of them.

    Ok read but some very complex detail in places. Book could have been somewhere shorter and still conveyed the same ideas and basic themes.

  • Basically a good read. Little slow at first.

    It was a little slow but it got better. Not a bad read

  • Not W.E.B. GRIFFIN but still hard to put down

    It was nice not to have to read through a quarter of the book rehashing previous stories. The somewhat elliptical references were useful to tie this to past series without bogging down the story line. Indeed, the book was to put down with excellent transitions to the next chapter. I look forward to a continuation of this restart of Presidential Agents. BTW, I read the previous reviews but took a chance (and am glad I did). I wonder about the agenda of those reviewers. OK, so the authors didn’t get all the details from the Corps series (and exactly how many Marines made ace during Vietnam?), but that impacts the present storyline how?

  • Completely not worth it….

    It’s like the new authors didn’t read the “Presidential Agent” series. I wanted to like this and was sorely disappointed. Don’t waste your time.

  • Great Read

    This is a great read. I have finished most of Mr. Griffin’s work. This is the same quality book.

    This is the third series that I have encountered with W.EB. All of them are page turners and full of action with characters that are very endearing.

    I love the presidential agent series and in my opinion this was a horrible story the series. At the end of hazardous duty, Castillo was getting married, svettlana was 3 months pregnant and Charlie was 38 years old. This story supposedly takes place 12 years later but somehow Charlie is now 57 years old. Also not a fan so f how Natalie cohen in this story can’t stand charger but in the real agent series she was a big fan and friend of him. These two authors did joying but muddy the memory of WEB Griffey with this book. They should of at least read the other books I. The series so they could of kept continuity with the series. I will not read anything these two write. Hope the Griffey estate will not let them weight anymore books for this or any other of his series.

    Was a bit hesitant at first that the writing not by W.E.B. Would be lacking the punch I had grown to love. Boy was I wrong, I am already impatiently waiting for the next assignment of the presidential agents.
