Product Description:
A fast-paced thriller and the grand finale of the gripping bestselling series featuring Admiral Arnold Morgan.
When a terrorist bomb explodes in Boston's Logan Airport, Admiral Arnold Morgan, the President's most trusted advisor, moves quickly to break the cell in the United States and ship the Islamic fanatics to Guantanamo Bay.
In response, the Hamas high command, meeting in a terrorist cell in Gaza, hatches a vicious plan to assassinate the Admiral the minute he leaves the United States. Morgan's old nemesis, Ravi Rashood, leads this international attack and endeavor to eliminate him. The exhilarating chase swirls through southern Ireland, London, and Scotland.
Desperate to protect the Admiral at all costs, the President must summon the most dangerous Navy Seal team that the USA has to offer. This gripping and provocative thriller displays both Robinson and his hero Morgan at their peak.

This book concludes a fairly long running series of books. I was somewhat disappointed that Mr. Robinson strayed from what he is great at: submarines. But that said this was a good book. The criticism about political commentary is overblown, there just is not that much in this book. The book moves along fairly well. The only real criticism I have is in the middle of the book when we know that the Israeli commandos will fail since there are a couple hundred pages to go, but most authors do that.
All in all more a political thriller, not his usual sub thriller but still worth a read. It would be worthwhile to read the books that begin the series to really see the background of the antagonists.

I was completely baffled after having read this book about how its purported on the inside cover that the President calls on this "SEAL TEAM" to cover Admiral Morgan. I am still waiting for a Team to show as Commander Rick Hunter, albeit an imposing and larger-than-life character: does no constitute a full Seal Team. When does the Team show up in the book, as I never saw it.

When I very first pick up a PR book, USS Sea Wolf, from an airport departure hall, I was captivated with his writting and that book kept me occupied on my outstation trip.
When I returned, I ordered the remaining of his books and finished all of them one after another.
I had been checking for this book print date and when it was available in Amazon, I order 1 immediate.
This closing chapter between the Admiral + General + NSA is such a flop.
PR strength in war plots in his previous writting were so good that it make this ending chapters such a drastic failure.
Starting from Airport + Prison + some remote Middle East hideout + a travelling around USA + UK + Ireland was so boring.
Did I even mentioned how "LUCKY" the general was to escape death while the HAMAS commander is so damn unprofessional.
The sending in of the a ex-SEAL commander in my opinion is just merely trying to add that few pages of text to an already weak story-line.
The ending where such the HAMAS commander was killed is really a joke seeing how careful he had been in the past series.
And I do not see any reason why the HAMAS commander has to resort to knife and gun to take out his arch enemy where in the past he has been using missile, explosives and whats-not.
This is a really sad closing chapter for the PR works.

I read someone using the word "climax" in describing this book. I too would have been disappointed if that were my expectation.
I bought this one because I enjoyed all the others and I happilly gobbled up every word.
For the subsequent one, Mr. Robinson, I want more submarine time. OK? Ships, too. Oh, and another femme fatal....

This was a story that had a lot of potential, but turned out to be shallowly written. The bomb plot at Logan was a great start, but the development of the story went downhill from there.
I was totally disappointed with the performance of the Mossad in Damascus. They missed the obvious by not paying attention to details. They weren't sure that Ravi Rashood was with his wife when they returned to the house, but they just assumed that it was him. Huh? I thought that they were a great intelligence agency. It was obvious from the story that it wasn't him. Also, the team leader stated that they would watch for the return of Ravi and Shakira and trigger the bomb when they entered the house, but then another stated that they wouldn't be able to get away afterwards, So the leader said that was why they were going to put the bomb on a timer. How did he get there?
The author had a propensity for stating the obvious in many cases. And the characters, who were supposed to be "bigger than life" missed a lot of obvious clues. I was expecting Admiral Morgan to get killed in the story and it would have only been just based on the performance of the characters who were supposed to protect him. It was hard to connect to any of the characters in the story.
After reading Vince Flynn and Lee Child, this story was a real disappointment. It was my very first Patrick Robinson book and it will be my last. I'm glad that I got this book from the library. I would have been really upset if I'd paid money to read it.
