In the next thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling Mitch Rapp series, it\\u2019s a race against the clock

\\n

when ISIS takes out the entire US power grid and throws the country into chaos.

\\n

When Mitch Rapp captures ISIS\\u2019s top technology expert, he reveals that he was on his way to meet a man who

\\n

claims to have the ability to bring down America\\u2019s power grid. Rapp is determined to eliminate this shadowy

\\n

figure, but the CIA\\u2019s trap fails.

\\n

The Agency is still trying to determine what went wrong when ISIS operatives help this cyber terrorist do what

\\n

he said he could\\u2014plunge the country into darkness. With no concept of how this unprecedented act was

\\n

accomplished, the task of getting the power back on could take months. Perhaps even years.

\\n

Rapp and his team embark on a desperate search for the only people who know how to repair the damage\\u2014

\\n

the ones responsible. But his operating environment is like nothing he\\u2019s experienced before. Computers and

\\n

communication networks are down, fuel can no longer be pumped from gas stations, water and sanitation

\\n

systems are on the brink of collapse, and the supply of food is running out.

On Vince Flynn:

\\n

Total Power is the 19th book featuring counterterrorism operative Mitch Rapp.

\\n

All 14 books that Vince Flynn wrote before his death were New York Times bestsellers, 3 of them reached the top of

\\n

the New York Times bestseller list

\\n

Nearly 75 million Vince Flynn books have been sold worldwide

\\n

At least 2 United States Presidents and 1 King are fans of

\\n

Vince Flynn: he\\u2019s heard personally from both President Bill

\\n

Clinton and President George W. Bush (left) that they\\u2019re big

\\n

fans, the latter even inviting him to the White House on

\\n

several occasions. King Abdullah II of Jordan (see right) has

\\n

hosted Vince in his palace and requests each new book for his enjoyment.

\\n

On Kyle Mills:

\\n

Kyle Mills is the New York Times bestselling author of

\\n

twenty-one books, including five previous Mitch Rapp

\\n

novels, The Survivor, Order to Kill, Enemy of the State, Red

\\n

War and last year\\u2019s #1 New York Times bestseller Lethal Agent.

\\n

Kyle\\u2019s father was an FBI agent, the Legal Attach\\xe9 to the UK,

\\n

and the director of Interpol. As the legend that Vince Flynn

\\n

created goes: Mitch Rapp joined the CIA in reaction to the

\\n

love of his life dying in Pan Am 103. Well, in real life, Kyle\\u2019s

\\n

father was the FBI\\u2019s lead man in the investigation of that

\\n

terrorist attack. It happened during Kyle\\u2019s college

\\n

graduation dinner in London where he was stationed at the

\\n

time. His assistant came to the restaurant and told him that

\\n

a plane had gone down in a small Scottish town. That was the last he saw of him for months.

\\n

The Mills family first met Tom Clancy when he was researching his second book and still

\\n

worked as an insurance salesman. His FBI character Dan Murray is based on Mills\\u2019s father.

\\n

Because of Kyle\\u2019s father\\u2019s job, he grew up in Oregon, Washington, DC.
