The Kill List: a top-secret catalogue of names held at the highest level of the US government. On it, those men and women who would threaten the world's security. And at the top, The Preacher, a radical Islamic cleric whose sermons inspire his followers to kill high-profile Western targets in the name of God. As the bodies begin to pile up in America, Great Britain and across Europe, the message goes out: discover this man's identity, locate him and take him out.

Tasked with what seems like an impossible job is an ex-US marine who has risen through the ranks to become one of America's most effective terrorist hunters. Now known only as The Tracker, he must gather what scant evidence there is, collate ir and unmask The Preacher if he is to prevent the next spate of violent deaths. Aided only by a brilliant teenage hacker, he must throw out the bait and see whether his deadly target can be drawn from his lair.

From the writer who invented the modern thriller when he wrote The Day of the Jackal - 'the book that broke the mould' (Lee Child) - comes another mesmerizing slice of action-packed adventure. The Kill List takes you deep into the secret and deadly world of global terrorism and with breathtaking flair shows you what really goes on behind the newspaper headlines...

Sou suspeito pra falar de Forsyth...Sempre misturando ficção e realidade...nesse especificamente, sobre terrorismo, o trabalho das agências secretas e suas operações secretas para eliminar as ameaças a seus países, tornou a leitura eletrizante página pós página...nada comparado Ao título “O VINGADOR”, mas capaz de nos transportar para o mundo da espionagem americana e inglesa e como é a cooperação entre elas para combater o inimigo comum, quase sempre aqueles do oriente médio, Paquistão e Afeganistão...vale a leitura...
