Mission Critical is the eighth book in the Gray Man series. These are books fueled by pure adrenaline. This one takes it up a notch with its focus on biological weapons; just what you want to be reading during the outbreak of the Coronavirus.

If you’ve never dipped in Gray Man before, the books chronicle the blacker than black ops of the CIA. If you like spy stories set in exotic locations these books are for you.

Mission Critical is set in Scotland – a little less exotic than some of the other Gray Man books. A rogue North Korean scientist and secret agent has teamed up with her Russian counterparts to take down the western intelligence community who are all attending a conference in Edinburgh. Court Gentry, the Gray Man, accidentally finds out about this and soon becomes an integral part of the case.

If I told you any more about the plot I’d have to kill you so you’ll have to read the rest yourself! Rating this book within the Spy Thriller Subgenre, of a total of possible 5 👍 I would give this one 4 👍👍👍👍!
