I read this, somewhat out of character for me, thriller as it's summer - and it was "free" as part of my K-Unlimited subscription. It was not as good as I'd hoped. The main character - a former Delta soldier now freelancimg and doing the "wet work" of contracted killings - is a layered character with a teen daughter (in peril here) and a wife who perished on 9/11/01. The plot moves quickly with pedestrian writing full of technical details. The terror plot was boilerplate bio-weaponry and the bad guys stereotypical. Plus, there were a few plot holes not settled by the conclusion. An acceptable first book in a trilogy I'm not sure if I'll continue reading.
