The Gray Man is back in another nonstop international thriller from number-one New York Times best-selling coauthor of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels
Fresh off his first mission back with the CIA, Court Gentry secures what seems like a cut-and-dried contract job: A group of expats in Paris hires him to kidnap the mistress of Syrian dictator Ahmed Azzam to get intel that could destabilize Azzam's regime. Court delivers Bianca Medina to the rebels, but his job doesn't end there. She soon reveals that she has given birth to a son, the only heir to Azzam's rule - and a potent threat to the Syrian president's powerful wife. Now, to get Bianca's cooperation, Court must bring her son out of Syria alive.
With the clock ticking on Bianca's life, he goes off the grid in a free-fire zone in the Middle East - and winds up in the right place at the right time to take a shot at bringing one of the most brutal dictatorships on earth to a close....

Title: If you are into the Gray man series, you may want to check out "Agent in place." A great read.
Review: As someone who has been a voracious reader for more than 7 decades, my interests have ranged from the traditional scientific to the esoteric, to the classics to well-written assassin/spy novels. Lately, I have become a fan of the âGray Man seriesâ and I just finished the 7th novel (Agent in Place by Mark Greaney710 page paperback) in this popular series.Like the previous Gray Man books this one is filled with fascinating characters and various twists and turns making it a great read if you are into this assassin/spy series.I never give away too much information when reviewing any novel, if you like action packed, fast moving, well-written spy/assassin books, "Agent in place" is for you.Rating: 5 Stars.

Title: Not my typical fair, but I love this series!
Review: Great action. Compulsively readable. Iâve read the last 8 books in just over two months. I Donât find myself getting bogged down with my poor background in spy craft nomenclature. I love the Gray Manâs character. I would enjoy seeing Gray Man developing a love interest and develop a new relationship with his father.

Title: This series will get you hooked!
Review: Another great read. This was seventh in the series and I've already got 8 ordered. What's great is that all these books can be read as stand-alone and do not need to be read in succession. All thrillers at their best!

Title: Still reading it and hard to put down
Review: Great book so far. The author seems to spend more time developing the different characters compared to past Gray Man books. And there also seems to be more characters!The author is demonstrating his knowledge of international affairs in this book and connecting it with the fictional story! Enjoying that a lot.Another great book and I plan to read the entire series!

Title: Court Goes to Syria
Review: Different from most, good, but not great. Still plenty of action, majority of it takes place in Syria. The prologue definitely reels you in, as the first chapter takes place a week earlier, then you get the prologue toward the end of the book.Revolves around a mistress of Syrian dictator Ahmed Azzam (Assad)? an heir to the throne, and vengeful wife of Assad, who has hired a Swiss mercenary. The Gray Man is hired to retrieve the heir out of Syria, but with the Syrian Army, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, Russians and Iranians in the mix, can he succeed in this mission.

Title: A Novel Written in Real Time
Review: 500 pages. Exactly 500 pages of intense action that made this book difficult to put down. For this reader, this was the first book read by author Mark Greaney. The writing was incredible and realistic. âAgent in Placeâ is the 7th book in a series about the Gray Man, Court Gentry, who was a former Christian-In-Action, who continues to provide services to the Agency, as well as his own contract assignments. His assignments are frequently assassinations.Supporters of the Free Syrian Army are in exile in Paris. They are well funded and are focused on bringing down Syrian President Ahmed Azzam (aka Bashar al-Assad). They learn that Ahmed has a mistress, who is a Spanish model and modeling in Paris. Arrangements are made with Court Gentry to kidnap Bianca Medina, as they know that she knows about a meeting taken in Tehran, that should the Russians discover, perhaps would end the dictatorship of Ahmed.Court is successful in the kidnapping, only that it was not easy and was most certainly bloody. At the same time the wife of Ahmed, Shakira al-Azzam (Asma al-Assad) is having an affair with her Swiss financial advisor, and he is a dangerous man that is wanted throughout Europe. Shakira learns of her husbandâs mistress and wants Bianca killed while in Europe. The Free Syrian supporters in Europe learn that Bianca has a son, by Ahmed, in Damascus and refuses to help their cause, unless her son can be brought to Europe.Once again Court is called upon, as they need him to go to Syria and snatch the child. Now, who would be crazy enough to go to Syria and snatch the son of the president? Well, that would be Court Gentry, who is not a typical man, and has abilities that most could only dream about.For this reader, reading this novel, it felt like being back on the streets of Damascus. And, what is most interesting is that this novel is in real time, in that the war being fought by several groups is realistically written. It is todayâs news. Prior to writing the Gray Man series, Mark Greaney had coauthored the late Tom Clancy novels. While this reader has thoughts about franchising a dead manâs name for novels, Mark Greaney, in his own name, is simply an exceptional writer of action & adventure novels. Time to go on Amazon and order the six previous Gray Man novels.
