Flash Point: Jason Trapp, Book 3

Love it. The stories are great and the characters are great. I would recommend this series of books to anyone that likes action

My sister recommended this spy thriller series by Jack Slater and after having read the first two novels, I highly recommend them and especially “Flash Point” which is raising the standard for a Jason Trapp storyline. Jason is a thinking man’s spy full of introspection and ethical principles. At every point Jason will plan the best solution for any situation or unanticipated crisis. The process of observing his methodology is intriguing.The author, Jack Slater, writes with real world history and cutting edge conspiracies that make for a believable plot and an exciting read. The author has created a female counterpart to the protagonist who can hold her own in every aspect of spy craft. Ikeda, is a female spy recently abducted and tortured by the Chinese, who is being guarded in a castle by Jason during her post traumatic recovery. Her character is written with a credible back story to promote and enhance her actions and physicality. A thread throughout the story is finding out if Jason and Ikeda are a match on all fronts given that the agents had just met under extreme circumstances and also that agents rarely form meaningful relationships and prefer to work alone.The writing describes in detail the environs that are continually changing - the description of the castle, the Russian cities, the ships, the weapons, the clothes that paint a picture like a movie as you read through their journey making the environment alive on the page. Almost all the characters are fully realized and believable. Jason’s relationship with his Director is prickly yet based on loyalty and years of trust. The story moves at a quick pace with no dull moments. If you enjoy spy craft, you will be glad you bought this novel. I look forward to reading the next installment “Depth Charge”.

Good character development and interesting storyline. This book takes you to many places and great situations. That will keep your interest and you will enjoy it!

Was interesting from page one. Easy to follow. Good story line. Good characters. Believable action. Modern enough to fit with today's national politics

I have read all of the action series books by by Brad Thor, Mark Greeney, Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, Andrew Petersen, Jack Carr, Daniel Siva, & Saul Herzog, and after a painful battle through the last series that I read (not naming author), I selected the Jason Trapp series by Jack Slater. I rate Jack's writing as top of the range, and they are reads that should not be missed - books are all also of decent lengths, not short stories as the last series that I read.... My only complaint is that I go through the books too fast as they are so good that I just cannot put my Kindle down. I have now read the 1st three in the series + Hangman (read it first to get Jason's background), and have enjoyed every minute of the fast moving action reads. They are all so well researched and detail so factual and up with the times (e.g. Russia, Ukraine and Politics). Yes... Read this series... you wont be sorry....

The Jason Trapp series is very good for the genre. You know the protagonist will escape tight situations and succeed or it wouldn’t be a series. That makes it slightly predictable but the plots are well thought out and main characters are well developed. Overall an entertaining read.

Well written, entertaining and a beautiful LOVE story. I enjoyed the characters and was glad none I loved were not killed off. Am looking forward to reading Depth Charge..

It ain't Shakespeare but it IS an engrossing read that I thoroughly enjoyed. Bought all the series. Good fun.

Buen tema. bien desarrollado.

Couldn't put this book down. Full of intrigue, twists and turns, gentle moments intersperced with gripping action. Introducing a part of life we know exists but hopefully never have experience of.A great read, real page turner, highly recommend you read this book.

Vll sollte er sich ein Feldbett unten im Sit Room hinstellen. Was der arme Mann in nur einem Jahr erlebt hat, reicht für ein Jahrhundert! Diesmal sind es die Russen, die mit einem digitalen Virus America zu einem lame duck degradieren möchten. Um das Geheimnis zu wahren, das Sokolov bei sich trägt und nach London bringen will, schießen sie sogar eine zivile Maschine vom Himmel.Dumm ist nur für die Russen, dass es genau dieser Sokolov ist, der vor mehreren Jahren von einem gewissen Jason Trapp, der zurzeit in der Toskana mit Eliza weilt, angeworben wurde. Und genau dieser Sokolov schickt ihm kurz vor seinem Tod eine Nachricht. Und genau deswegen hetzen sie ihm und Eliza ein paar Killer auf den Hals und das Rad der Ereignisse nimmt seinen blutigen Lauf.Auch der dritte Teil der Jason Trapp Serie enttäuscht nicht. Slater versteht es ausgesprochen genial gut, den Leser in einer cloud aus action, Verschwörungen, high speed und twists und Volten zu lassen, und das ohne mit Info dump um sich zu werfen. Grundsolide Action trifft auf grundsolider recherche auf grundsolidem unaufgeregten Schreibstil und einem menschlichen Trapp, der weder superhero noch pussy ist. Trapp ist Trapp. Love it!Die scene in Moscow im Park als er den toten Briefkasten sucht - genial, absolut genial.Eine super Serie und ich freue mich riesig auf "Depth Charge".

Great Read. Have been following Jack Slater books and love them. Well written...Great descriptions and lots and lots of intrigue.Now for the next one... Depth Charge. Looking forward to a fab read.

Good action story and a likeable main character, Jason. My only criticism is that in all the books there is repetitive use throughout of “wraith” or “wraith like”....surely different adjectives could be used?Would recommend this series
