Stephen Hunter
Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times best-selling author Stephen Hunter returns with a taut, white-knuckled thriller featuring master sniper Bob Lee Swagger as he protects a group of political hostages during a perilous standoff and once again proves his title of “true American literary icon” (Mark Greaney, author of Mission Critical).
After his successful takedown of a dangerous terrorist, Bob Lee Swagger learns that no good deed goes unpunished. Summoned to court by the United States Congress, Swagger is accused of reckless endangerment by a hardheaded anti-gun congresswoman. But what begins as political posturing soon turns deadly when the auditorium where the committee is being held is attacked.
Swagger, the congresswoman, and numerous bystanders and reporters are taken hostage by a group of violent operatives. Soon, the very people who had accused him are depending on him to save their lives. Trapped in the auditorium and still struggling with injuries from his last assignment, Swagger must rely on his instincts, his shooting skills, and the help of a mysterious rogue sniper on the outside in order to ensure that everyone makes it out alive.
A heart-pounding and crackling action-packed novel, Targeted proves that Stephen Hunter is “a true master at the pinnacle of his craft. No one does it better” (Jack Carr, Former Navy SEAL Sniper and author of The Terminal List).

Because everybody’s a critic, there is one lil not picky thing I’d point out. This is pretty much through the other books as well, and that’s this; the articulation of law enforcement officers, the depiction of them is just a bit off. (I can speak to this from a position of knowledge). To a lay person it fits well in with the TV depiction but not as well with the reality. It’s just a bit off, well ok in some spots it’s way off, but it is entertainment after all.
That lil bit of insignificance aside, I loved it. Can’t wait for what’s next!
Thank you both, Mr. Hunter and Mr. Dove for a great job!
Fanfreakintastic!

However, I am not sure that "cantonment" would have been pronounced "cuntoonment" in 18th century British or in any language of the time. So one star deducted from the performance for that obscurity.
Brilliant portrayal of cowardly politicians and journalists on both sides of the aisle who fabricate any excuse to weaken our defenses against terrorists and criminals.
Minor point: It would be hard to prosecute a case of wanton disregard on the grounds of using a round that had not yet been officially adopted. Special operators are generally given wide latitude in their choice of weapons and the fact that the cartridge was later made official would make the claim of all the imagined hazards moot--especially when considered with Swagger 's profound experience and analytical expertises in the field of kinetic activity.
Another tour de force by Hunter
