Story
CIA counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp falls prey to government forces with an agenda of their own after Dr. Irene Kennedy is named the successor to dying CIA Director Thomas Stansfield—a choice that enrages many inside the world’s most powerful intelligence agency. Her detractors will resort to extreme measures to prevent her from taking the reins—which makes Rapp an expendable asset. But Mitch Rapp is no one’s pawn, and he will stop at nothing to find out who has set him up.

Newly appointed CIA director Dr. Irene Kennedy is the target of an inside plot to destroy her and prematurely end the American President's term. To make matters worse, Saddam Hussein is close to entering the nuclear arms race - something Israel has vowed to stop. With the haunting specter of World War III looming, the president calls on his secret weapon: top counter-terrorism operative Mitch Rapp. But with only two weeks to take out the nukes, Rapp is up against a ticking clock - and impossible odds.

Story
It's a gorgeous autumn day in Georgetown. The Democratic candidates for president and vice-president of the United States are dutifully glad-handing voters and the media outside a grand estate where a national-security conference has just been held, bringing together the world's greatest minds to discuss the issues that are threatening the country. It's American politicking at its best. That's when all hell breaks loose.

Story
The four dead guards didn’t concern Mitch Rapp as much as the absence of the man they’d been paid to protect. Joe Rickman wasn’t just another foot soldier. For the last eight years Rickman had ran the CIA’s clandestine operations in Afghanistan. It was a murky job that involved working with virtually every disreputable figure in the Islamic Republic. More than a quarter billion dollars in cash had passed through Rickman’s hands during his tenure as the master of black ops and no one with a shred of sense wanted to know the details of how that money had been spent.

Story
Mitch Rapp is used to winning. But in this follow-up to number-one New York Times best-selling The Survivor, the CIA operative finds himself chasing false leads from continent to continent in an effort to keep Pakistani nukes from falling into the hands of terrorists. Together with friend and colleague Scott Coleman, Rapp struggles to prevent the loss of these lethal weapons, particularly because Russia is also interested in the nukes, though not for the same reason as Rapp and Coleman.
Written by: Kyle Mills, and others

What the critics say
"His description of the White House is impressive; readers will wonder if the secret passageways, hidden rooms, and clever deception devices that help load this story with seemingly endless intrigue really exist." (Publishers Weekly)

A good book, flawed by its audio counterpart
I haven't been an audible customer for long but most of what I've purchased I've been happy with. I'm a large fan of Vince Flynn's works, and I was looking forward to listening to the Mitch Rapp series. While this would be a good listen to someone who hasn't read the book before, Audible hurts the book by not labeling it as abridged. Huge portions of character development, plot points and major scenes are completely left out. This would have been an easy 5 stars if Simon & Schuster Audio had done this book in its unabridged glory.

Back on his game
With Transfer of Power, Vince Flynn was back on his game. The story line was clear, the characters believable and the details of the White House make you wonder if Mr Flynn doesn't have an inside source of information. My only recommendation is to put all his books out in an unabridged offering in addition to the abridged version, because the story moved so quickly it left you longing for more.

Shame this is abridged format only
There's so much going on in Vince Flynn novels that I really would appreciate the unabridged version to fully savor character development and plot lines more fully flushed out. This would have been a 5 star listen in the unabridged version. I won't buy any more Vince Flynn abridged audiobooks. Word.

Weakened due to Abridgment
I have to agree with the majority of the other reviews, this book is severely weakened due to the fact that it is abridged. In my opinion, this book could of been edited better. There was just way too many crucial facts left out. The reader gets the basics of what the book is about but that is all; there are none of the intimate details that normally go into making a book a best seller. In addition, I believe that the story is too choppy. If the hardcopy was written just like this abridged format was, I highly doubt that it would of been a best seller. Overall, the story was good, however based upon the reputation of the author, I know that the book is better. I am unsure as to who decides whether a book should be abridged or unabridged, but I would rather pay the extra cost for the unabridged format. Basically I was left wanting more. I guess the only way to get complete satisfaction out of this story is simply to read the book, and if that is the case what do I need audible for? Simply put, buy this book if you don't care about details and you are trying to keep up with the Mitch Rapp series and don't have time to read the hardcopy.

This Abridgement does Vince Flynn a disservice!
I have read all of Vince Flynn's books several times. The characters are well delineated, the dialogue is crisp and the plot details well formulated and clearly explained. This "Abridgement" chops out the defining character development (e.g Irene Kennedy), and completely annihilates the plot sequences, making it impossible to comprehend anyone's motivation, planning and follow-through. What make Vince Flynn's books so appealing is how true-to-life his characters are and how admirable Mitch Rapp is. This abridgement leaves out Mitch's thought processes, Irene Kennedy's input, and the tension between the vice-president's advisor and everyone else. It's clear to me that whoever sliced and diced this abridgement has no feeling for the genre, and views "military-types" as two-dimensional. Shame on you and your team!! Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp series is heart-warming and encouraging in these troubled times. I read them as an antidote to the nightly news. Namby-pamby "girly men" get their come uppance and wrongs are righted. Truth, Jstice and the American Way prevail! Mitch Rapp and his Special Forces friends are the real Supermen of our generation!! Audio Books should dump this shameful abridgemnet and get George Guidall to read the full-length version! (Oh yeah!)

Great story short-changed
Like many of the other reviews about this audiobook, I have the same comments. I really enjoyed the story/plot, the characters, and found Flynn to be an excellent writer. However, I felt really short-changed listening to this book in an abridged format. I honestly don't know why it wasn't produced in an unabridged version, as it seemed to be a very good book. I almost didn't get it because it was abridged, and for those members who are sitting on the fence as I was, I would recommend getting it, if for no other reason than to keep up with the background story of Mitch Rapp, a very cool character. The story is fluid, and I wouldn't say that while listening to it one can tell where the story has been cut. However, while listening, there was no real character development, lots of interesting details that one would long to hear weren't there, and the reader was left enjoying what was there, but wanting more. If the rest of the story was as good as this I would have given it five stars, hands down.

TERRIBLE ABRIDGEMENT!
I am a big fan of The Mitch Rapp stories by Vince Flynn. However, this one is appalling disappointment. The chopping of the story makes very little sense. the narrator refers to things that were never included in the first part of this abridgment. Don't waste your credit!
