Overview

In the fourth novel in the New York Times bestselling series, Marine sniper Kyle Swanson finds himself in the sights of a man he once idolized--a true American hero turned traitor Swanson and his beautiful girlfriend, CIA agent Lauren Carson, are on a mission in Pakistan when their world is turned inside out. Kyle is captured and thrown in prison. Lauren is accused of being a double agent. The one person they trust to help is the man who sent them on the black operation--Jim Hall, a legendary CIA agent, Kyle's sniper mentor, and Lauren's boss and former lover. But Hall has gone rogue. He is selling America's innermost secrets to a ruthless Pakistani warlord who wants to mold al- Qaeda into a legitimate political party, and secure a nuclear arsenal. For Jim Hall, his former protégé Swanson is the final obstacle. Success or failure pivots on whether Swanson can stop the old friend who trained him to be a shooter. From the streets of Washington to the Bavarian Alps, the two snipers stalk each other in a deadly hunt that has only one possible outcome.

Reviews

Intricate, well-crafted...Coughlin vividly [portays] the ethos of combat soldiers. --Publishers Weekly The cat-and-mouse game that ensues between the two adversaries will have readers frantically turning pages. Series fans will enjoy the roller-coaster ride, and military-fiction buffs new to the series will find this episode a great place to start. --Booklist The pages fly by as Swanson must face his most personal mission yet. The military tactics take a backseat to the characters, creating a strong and compelling narrative. Coughlin and Davis have concocted another winner that should only encourage a growing readership. --Booklist on Clean Kill: A Sniper Novel Former Marine Coughlin and bestseller Davis combine a well-paced, credible plot with a realistic portrayal of modern combat...The climax...will leave readers cheering. --Publishers Weekly on Clean Kill: A Sniper Novel Compelling. --Publishers Weekly on Dead Shot: A Sniper Novel The [plot] propels the pages forward, but this one isn't all about action: Swanson proves a surprisingly complex character...Dead Shot suggest[s] a hardware-heavy story that only an armed- services veteran could love. Surprisingly, it's completely the opposite. Readers will be compelled...and will look forward to another Swanson adventure. --Bookliston Dead Shot: A Sniper Novel Stunning action, excellent tradecraft, insider politics, and the ring of truth. Just about perfect. --Lee Child on Kill Zone: A Sniper Novel Tight, suspenseful...Here's hoping this is the first of many Swanson novels. --Booklist on Kill Zone: A Sniper Novel A renowned sniper, Coughlin recounts battlefield action with considerable energy. --The Washington Post on Kill Zone: A Sniper Novel The action reaches a furious pitch. --Publishers Weekly on Kill Zone: A Sniper Novel One of the best snipers in the Marine Corps, perhaps the very best. When I asked one of his commanders about his skills, the commander smiled and said, 'I'm just glad he's on our side.' --Peter Maass, war-correspondent and bestselling author of Love Thy Neighbor on Shooter The combat narratives here recount battlefield action with considerable energy . . . A renowned sniper, Coughlin is less concerned with his tally than with the human values of comradeship and love. --The Washington Post on Shooter Coughlin is a sniper, perhaps one of the most respected and feared in the Corps, and his memoir, Shooter, offers a uniquely intimate look into the life of one trained to live in the shadows . . . some of the most poignant action ever recorded in a modern Marine memoir. --Seapower magazine on Shooter
