Hard Kill (A Jon Reznick Thriller Book 2)

A senior American security adviser has gone missing and is believed to have been kidnapped for his access to top-level military intelligence. FBI Assistant Director Martha Meyerstein enlists Jon Reznick, a former black-ops assassin, to help locate him before classified information falls into hostile hands. Reznick is pulled away from a planned vacation with his daughter to join the investigation. Meyerstein's elite team suspects an Iranian terrorist cell is responsible, based on the missing diplomat's expertise in the Persian Gulf region. However, Reznick's instincts lead him in a different direction. Dismissing the team's conclusions, he pursues a lead others have overlooked and identifies a suspect who appears suspiciously clean. When the team comes under attack, the kidnapping is revealed to be part of a larger conspiracy—one more dangerous than initially believed. With national security at stake and widespread threats emerging, Reznick becomes the critical figure standing between the country and a campaign of unprecedented terror.
