Transfer of Power and The Third Option

These are the first two books in the Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn. I absolutely love these books! I'd been looking for the first two for a while, since they were the only ones I hadn't read. Well worth reading. I liked the first better than the second, because there was more action in it. Anyway, in the first one, a bunch of terrorists break into the White House and hold the President hostage. In the second, Mitch has decided he wants to get out of the line of fire, but somebody tries to have him killed to publicly humiliate the government... Very good action in both of them, but more so in the first.
