Every politician has a secret. And when the daughter of a politically-connected family is kidnapped abroad, Americas new president will agree to anything - even a deadly and ill-advised rescue plan - in order to keep his secret hidden. . .
THE APOSTLE
by #1 New York Times Bestselling Author BRAD THOR
COMING JUNE 30, 2009
Quite possibly the next coming of Robert Ludlum.
—Chicago Tribune
Master of suspense and #1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor returns with his most riveting international thriller yet.
A new administration and a new approach to dealing with Americas enemies have left covert counterterrorism operative Scot Harvath without a job. But when American doctor Julia Gallo is kidnapped in Afghanistan, the terms of her ransom leave the president with only one course of action.
In a dangerous assignment that the United States government will deny any knowledge of, Scot Harvath must secretly infiltrate Kabuls notorious Policharki Prison and free the man the kidnappers demand as ransom al-Qaeda mastermind, Mustafa Khan.
But when Harvath arrives, he quickly learns that there is more to the kidnapping than anyone dares to admit. And as the subterfuge is laid bare, Harvath must examine his own career of hunting down and killing terrorists, and ask himself if he has what it takes to help one of the worlds worst go free.
Brimming with the kind of ripped-from-the-headlines authenticity Brad Thors internationally bestselling novels are known for, The Apostle doubles down on the blockbuster success of The Last Patriot and reaffirms Thors status as the master of the political thriller.
