"Mitch Rapp has worked for a number of presidents over his career, but Anthony Cook is unlike any he's encountered before. Cunning and autocratic, he feels no loyalty to America's institutions and is distrustful of the influence Rapp and CIA director Irene Kennedy have in Washington. Meanwhile, when Kennedy discovers evidence of a mole scouring the Agencys database for sensitive information on Nicholas Ward, the worlds first trillionaire, she convinces Rapp to take a job protecting him. In doing so, he finds himself walking an impossible tightrope: Keep the man alive, but also use him as bait to uncover a traitor who has seemingly unlimited access to government secrets.".… (mais)

Enemy At The Gates (Mitch Rapp, Book 20), Vince Flynn, Kyle Mills, authors, George Guidall, narrator
Deep in Uganda, a well-known vaccine scientist is missing. His investigations into pandemics are crucial. When the lab he was working with was attacked and burned to the ground, he and two others hid in a safe room. When a fire started, they disappeared. Did they escape or were they captured? Everyone else there was murdered. These scientists work for Nicholas Ward, one on the world’s richest men who has great power to effect changes that the current young, 44-year-old President, Anthony Cook, is not in favor of and hopes to stop. His wife, a former successful hedge fund manager, is using the Presidency as a cash cow. Both are more interested in control and making money, then in supporting the American dream.
Cook sends in a team to Uganda, supposedly to search for the scientists, but does he want to rescue them or find them and dispose of them, with their boss, Nicholas Ward. Ward is a thorn in their backs because he has a great deal of influence in the corporate and international world. His money gives him tremendous power.
Irene Kennedy, with Nick Ward, arranges a clandestine effort to save his scientists. She has discovered a mole intent on finding out information on Ward and engages Rapp to protect Ward. Then Ward and Irene convince Rapp to also rescue the scientists and to find the mole who has managed to hack into the computers to secretly access information on Ward. Rapp is devoted to Kennedy. As he proceeds to try and rescue the scientists and discover the mole, unexpected betrayals, destruction and violence, with loss of life, follow.
How will this espionage investigation and rescue operation work out? The plot is not as intricate as it could be and feels thinner than the other Rapp novels. ( )

Enemy At The Gates, by Kyle Mills, is the 20th book in the Mitch Rapp series. Kyle writes amazing thrillers, and if that is what you enjoy reading, then this book, and in fact the entire series, is a MUST read for you. I highly recommend you read the books in sequential order, to get the full effect of what is happening. This book picks up six months after Total Power ends and it alludes to what can happen with some of our government agencies, officials and situations, when an incoming President has a different agenda from the previous administration.

Enter Nicholas Ward, the world’s first trillionaire and a request he has to find one of his employees who has gone missing, an employee who has been working on a vaccine that will protect the world against any coronavirus that may come our way. Can you imagine what that would do to multinational corporations and the uber wealthy who invest in them. How will they respond to protect their financial futures? Well of course this isn’t all that is going on, there is a mole in the government who is working against the rescue and that too needs to be solved and “addressed”.

Our favorite characters, Mitch, Claudia, Irene and Scott just to name a few, are brought in to help rescue Mr. Wards employee. But with this new President and his completely different outlook as to how he feels the country should be run, there are conflicts and differences as to what Mitch and friends can do. If you want to know what happens, and how this affects our future, pick up Enemy At The Gates when it comes out September 14th, 2021. It will be one of the best books you have read this year. #MitchRappIsBack #EnemyAtTheGates ( )
