About this ebook

Only she can save the world, but can she save herself?

“Mission Impossible in book form.” (Netgalley review)

Betrayed, captured and left to rot in a Siberian prison by her country. The future looks bleak for Sam Driver, the CIA’s former top terrorist hunter.

Yet when embassy bombings push the US and Russia to the brink of nuclear war, a cabal of rogue UN ambassadors hatch a plan to expose the true culprits in a last-gasp effort to avert the apocalypse.

A ragtag international team is assembled. Disavowed spies, assassins and soldiers pulled out of their foreign jails. Yet some are bitter enemies. Others feared mercenaries. And all with an axe to grind.

Can they be trusted with the fate of the world?

Leading the mission, Driver is perhaps the most troubled soul. And when her past comes back to haunt her, those very same demons threaten to doom us all.

Rebel Elite is the first pulsating thriller in the Sam Driver series, perfect for fans of Lee Child and David Baldacci.

Great book, excellently written with a well thought out plot. The snippets of comedy relief were also brilliantly placed. A brilliant read that I would highly recommend.

Wow! What a thrill ride! Think a more humanized, character-driven version of "The Expendables," in this case, the origin story -- but with backstories on the international cast of characters something to look forward to. Jump into this read to feel fully immersed in the missions of the characters and the rag-tag assembled group. The characters keep up interesting and playful dialogue, with no "steamy" scenes and a managable degree of pathos and otherwise realistic emotions and interactions, creating a camaraderie that is a found family. The reason I state that the pathos is manageable is because none are entrapped in bitterness or the long-term effects of trauma, whereas being pulled from a black ops prison hole is prescription for PTSD, especially as each had been disavowed amd betrayed by their countries.

nice read but i liked Lim's character more and she could have easily been the main character.
