From #1 New York Times bestselling author Mark Greaney comes the second entry in the explosive thriller series featuring the lethal assassin known as the Gray Man. When an old comrade Court Gentry thought was dead returns to haunt him, his own life is put in the crosshairs. The man wants Court to complete a mission, with one crucial catch to his orders: Instead of a difficult assassination, the job will entail a nearly impossible kidnapping--and Court must return his quarry to the very CIA team that turned on him.

I didn't like this at all. Court's character has undergone significant changes. In the first book he was an ace singleton assassin. Although the first was over the top at times, it was entertaining and I wanted to believe it. The second just didn't work for me in too many ways. It seemed as if Court developed some kind of Lifetime Chanel disorder, questioning all of his own actions. Author could be developing a story arc here, this book to show Court's own weaknesses, and the next his rise back to greatness, but... Surprised this and the first book were written by the same author.
Man, this is total brain candy. I wish I had more to say about this book. The story was just enough to allow me some entertainment. No true suspension of reality, and that's okay.
The Gray Man is already hunted by the CIA. The reason for this wasn't clear. It's a mystery that only deepens with this book as he tries to come to terms with his past and a member of his old team. Needless to say, the effort doesn't go as well as the Gray Man hopes and he's left to do what he does best: take out the bad guys, and a few bad guys posing as good guys.
It's a great second book for the series and I'm already hooked on the Gray Man novels.
