American Assassin by Vince Flynn (2010)

This is the back story to Mitch Rapp, how he became the super agent - how he was recruited by Irene Kennedy (who I remember from other Rapp books as being supportive) why he chose the path, how he was trained by Stan Hurley (a real sweet guy - not sure if he appears in other books). Rapp ends up jumping right into a case and taking care of various terrorists in Istanbul, Hamburg and Beruit. Felt like Rapp. A good read for long road trips. My only complaint about Flynn is that he does tend to get too gruesome in his details.
