Damn, Scot Harvath becomes Vigilante/Punisher in this one, kicks more ass, and this time it's personal!

The First Commandment picks up right after the events in Takedown. Scot Harvath goes out on a personal vendetta after his new girlfriend Tracy is attacked and put in a coma by a ruthless terrorist who along with 4 other inmates, is released from Guantanamo Bay, after the President of the United States is blackmailed into releasing them. All of a sudden, the people closest to Harvath are being targeted by this sadistic assassin, who is doing it using his own version of the Ten Plagues. After the President order Harvath to back off the investigation and let the CIA deal with it, Harvath wants no part of it, he wants the killer all for himself, and he will not rest until he catches him dead or alive. But as Harvath moves closer to the truth, he realizes that he is facing an enemy from his past, who seeks vengeance against him. And while Harvath is chasing his enemy, he is being chased by his own government after disobeying the President's orders to back off!

Once again, non-stop thrills, and a fast and entertaining read!!
