What this book is about
A Scott Harvath thriller by Brad Thor (2019) in which Harvath is abducted and transported to a remote location in Russia after a mission goes catastrophically wrong. With no backup and no rescue coming, he must use his skills to survive and fight his way out of enemy territory. One of the most intense, stripped-down entries in the series.
