Description
Lethal operative Scot Harvath is dispatched to avenge the killing of American citizens abroad in #1 New York Times and #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author Brad Thor’s pulse-pounding thriller.
In the war-ravaged borderlands of Ukraine, a Russian mercenary unit has gone rogue. Its members, conscripted from the worst prisons and mental asylums across Russia, are the most criminally violent, psychologically dangerous combatants to ever set foot upon the modern battlefield.
With all attention focused on the frontlines, they have pushed deeper into the interior to wage a campaign of unspeakable barbarity. As they move from village to village, committing horrific war crimes, they meet little resistance as all able-bodied men are off fighting the war.
Simultaneously, a team of Russian soldiers has been dispatched by the Kremlin to loot truckloads of art and priceless cultural treasures hidden away in a host of churches, museums, and private homes.
When multiple American aid workers are killed, America’s top spy, Scot Harvath, is sent in to settle the score. But in a country so vast, will Harvath be able to find the men in question and, more importantly, will he be able to stop them before they can kill again?
Reviews

5By MAM 53exthing with Horvathcellent as always. Politica aside, I also disagree with it, but love anything with Horvath involvedFantastic.
5By TempleOfTheDogggI really loved this book. I’m only writing this because of all the other bad reviews I came across. Don’t believe them! It’s really good.Bad Historical & Current Events Lecture
2By AutoDidact1Brad Thor has followed Daniel Silva down the “bad current events” tube. I’ve read all of his Scott Harvath books but this is the last one. Nobody wants to be lectured on Democrat talking points in a novel.Dead Fall
5By wadenofSuperb story.Left hanging
3By jake12345688Cheesy unfulfilled ending . You are left hanging. Too many references to murphys law. Not that cute.Dead Fall
5By nsb80Well written, full of never ending excitement. I did not want to put the book down.Intense until the end
5By Nordster1The description and accounts of the fighting in Ukraine is bone chilling. We as Americans sitting in our warm homes can’t even begin to imagine or comprehend the horror that the civilians in Ukraine are experiencing. The people that have volunteered to fight in this country’s war are both crazy and to be admired. Brad Thor has done a great service through this fictional portrayal of putting the reader into the intense situation. May we never forget that man is willing to do the unthinkable to a fellow human being.Superfluous side story
1By CareerMovesThor made a book out of a novella by adding an unconnected-to-the-plot side story. Also, why did the sniper ask Harvath to put his hands up when he could have easily shot him like he did with others?Dead Fall
5By Gem LuffThe setting of Dead Fall is Very up to date with what is going on with world conflicts and politics.
