I have to say I love when a new Gray Man book hits the shelves. That means I get to feed my addiction and find out what my crush is up to again with my early review! Damn, I love the Gray Man!
Never the same, you have to check out the books by Greaney if you love espionage novels. Not to be missed! Here are my thoughts on this new release.
MISSION CRITICAL by Mark Greaney
Series: Gray Man (Book 8)
Publisher: Berkley (February 19, 2019)
ISBN-13: 978-0451488947
ABOUT:
Court Gentry’s flight on a CIA transport plane is interrupted when a security team brings a hooded man aboard. They want to kick Gentry off the flight but are overruled by CIA headquarters. The mystery man is being transported to England where a joint CIA/MI6 team will interrogate him about a mole in Langley.
When they land in an isolated airbase in the U.K., they are attacked by a hostile force who kidnaps the prisoner. Only Gentry escapes. His handlers send him after the attackers, but what can one operative do against a trained team of assassins? A lot, when that operative is the Gray Man.
MISSION CRITICAL by Mark Greaney Review
I had to put this book off longer than I normally due because there were so many others being released that I agreed to review at the same time. I wanted to be able to focus only on this book and I am so glad I did.
This story is intense from the beginning and completely grabs you. That is the one factor I love about reading this series. The author never repeats a plot or even a similar plot by another author. Each book I have read, and especially this one, has been completely unique, fast-paced, and totally gripping.
Mission Critical takes us to Europe for most of the story and the slow build in intensity, suspense, and information will just about stress you out but the wait is so totally worth it! Don’t jump to the end…. Just don’t!
Zoya is back popping in and out as she often does, along with many other characters we know and hate love. Many new ones pop in too along the way as strong supporting characters that round out this page turner perfectly.
Secrets, lies, twists, turns, along with plenty of violence, and the high body count we come to expect from Court and his cronies, makes this story is so completely plausible, it is scary in many ways. I just loved it! Plus, I know this one would be so good on audio!
If you are a black-ops fan, you have to read Mission Critical and the whole Gray Man series. Excellent in every way – even the frustrating parts!
