Book Description:
When diplomacy has failed and military intervention is deemed inappropriate, our leaders sometimes take THE THIRD OPTION.

CIA counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp falls prey to government forces with an agenda of their own after Dr. Irene Kennedy is named the successor to dying CIA Director Thomas Stansfield -- a choice that enrages many inside the world's most powerful intelligence agency. Her detractors will resort to extreme measures to prevent her from taking the reins -- which makes Rapp an expendable asset. But Mitch Rapp is no one's pawn, and he will stop at nothing to find out who has set him up.

This entry in the Mitch Rapp series is good if you are reading the series in order, because it brings together the characters from Term Limits and Transfer of Power and brings continuity to all of Flynn's books so far. Also, I enjoyed the story much better than the last book - it was more suspenseful.

Just the book for those who seek out intrigue, behind-the-scenes betrayal and politics in Washington DC.

The character Mitch Rapp is one of the most memorable I've met in a long time, and the stories Vince Flynn has composed around Rapp are so intriguing it's hard to put the book down.

I've just started the third book in the series. If you have not read the book that starts the series, get Term Limits, also on my bookshelf, as your first, and get this one as your next 'read'. I will have the third book posted shortly as i can barely stop reading this intriguing series!

A good thriller with very likable good guys and despicable bad guys. A quick page-turner with plenty of action, but the plot is a bit contrived.

3 stars out of 5

A real page turner. This book should be read with "Separation of Power." "The Third Option" is the first book with "Separation of Power" as the sequel.

I love all of Vince Flynn's books about Mitch Rapp and this was no exception. If I could have one wish about this book, it would have more about Mitch Rapp and not so much about other characters, although , I do understand that he has to develop background for the books that will be following. Can't wait to read the next one. Think I'll go and start right now:)

Another action-packed thriller...as great a read as all the others he wrote. I'm a grandmother in my sixties, and I love the way Flynn writes...the setting, the characters, the details (though I must admit some of it goes over my head). I'd highly recommend this book, but it sure helps to read them in order.
