  KILL
SHOT by Vince Flynn
#1 INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR VINCE FLYNN DELIVERS THE YOUNG, HUNGRY,
AND LETHAL MITCH RAPP AT THE ONSET OF HIS CAREER AS A CIA SUPERAGENT.
In the year since the CIA trained and then unleashed him, Mitch Rapp has been
steadily working his way through a list of men, bullet by bullet. With each
swift and untraceable kill, the tangled network of monsters responsible for the
slaughter of 270 civilians in the Pan Am Lockerbie attack become increasingly
aware that someone is hunting them. Rapp is given his next target, and finds the
man asleep in his bed in Paris. In the split second it takes the bullet to leave
Rapp’s silenced pistol, the trap is sprung and he finds himself in the fight of
his life.
The next morning, nine bodies are discovered in one of Paris’s finest
hotels—among them the Libyan oil minister. Back in Washington the
finger-pointing begins in earnest as no one wants any part in what has become an
international crisis and potential embarrassment for the CIA. Rapp’s handlers
have only one choice—deny any responsibility for the incident and pray that
their newest secret weapon stays that way.
Rapp must avoid capture or die quietly. One person in the group, however, is not
prone to leaving such important things to chance. Rapp has become a liability,
and Stan Hurley will not allow Rapp to be taken alive by the French authorities,
even if it means killing him. Operating on his own and outside the control of
his handlers, it will soon become clear that nothing is more dangerous than a
wounded and cornered Mitch Rapp.
In Flynn’s newest page-turner, the stakes are higher than they’ve ever been as
Mitch Rapp embarks on the journey that will turn him into America’s most deadly
asset. The nonstop action in this shockingly realistic political thriller will
keep your pulse pounding till the very end.

inexplicably goes on a murderous rampage?
When Dr. John Meacham goes on a
shooting spree the office, his business partner, staff, and two patients are
killed in the bloodbath. Then Meacham turns the gun on himself.
The blame falls on Dr. Lou Welcome.

doctor and deserved to be practicing medicine and fought hard for his license to
be restored. After hearing the news of the violent outburst, Lou is in shock

it further, the terrifying evidence he finds takes him down a path to an
unspeakable conspiracy that seems to lead directly to the White House and those
in the highest positions of power.

 THE
LAST JUSTICE by Anthony J. Franze
CHAOS ERUPTS at the U.S. Supreme Court when an assassin guns down six justices
as they are hearing a case.
Solicitor General Jefferson McKenna, the government's top lawyer in the Supreme
Court, is appointed to the multiagency commission investigating the murders. As
Congress draws battle lines over who will replace the slain justices, the
commission follows clue after clue, each one pointing to an unlikely suspect:
McKenna himself.
In a desperate bid to prove his innocence, McKenna, on the run with his deputy,
Kate Porter, must track down a disgraced law clerk with ties to hidden Saudi
assets. But their search leads to unexpected alliances, unearthing dark secrets
and corruption at the highest levels -- and the people with clues to the riddle
keep turning up dead. From the marble halls of the high court to the inner
corridors of the West Wing, from the D.C. housing projects to the desolate back
roads of a New York Indian reservation, McKenna and Porter are on a collision
course with a shadowy enemy who will stop at nothing to keep the truth buried.
From its explosive first page to its haunting conclusion, THE LAST JUSTICE
explores the politics of law, the bounds of friendship and love, and the
frightening price of unbridled ambition.

rigorous inspections by the United States Department of Embryo Preservation.
