"Black Friday [is] on the cusp of becoming blood-soaked Friday. . . . Among the shoppers, albeit reluctantly, is Ray Cruz, a retired marine sniper, son of the iconic marine sniper Bob Lee Swagger, whose valorous exploits Hunter has richly detailed ( Dead Zero , 2010, etc.). . . . Snipers and SWAT teams gather, but only one man is in an advantageous tactical position, behind enemy lines, as it were. Only one man, but he's Bob Lee Swagger's son, and what a good thing it is that the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree." - Kirkus Reviews, "Stephen Hunter spent years reviewing movies for The Washington Post . That work gave him a keen sense of pacing and timing. The evidence shows up in Soft Target , which unrolls a complicated and grabby plot in just 256 tense pages. And Hunter packs in a surprise with the identity and motive of the individual behind the terrorist attack." St. Louis Post-Dispatch, "A solid addition to Stephen Hunter's sniper series, made more engaging by its invocation of current events and political posturing. I join his other fans in hoping he has another one already in the works." - The Washington Times, "Hunter's writing is sharp, detailed and laced with enough offhand wit to keep readers from sinking into the general gore and Islam-bashing. . . . Hunter has produced a fast, gratifying read." - The Houston Chronicle, "Any thriller in which Middle Eastern terrorists whack Santa on the first page is bound to be exciting. As always, Hunter has crafted a fast-paced and all-too-plausible telling of our worst nightmares coming true. Ray Cruz is a worthy successor to Swagger. Hunter's fans, along with new readers, will enjoy the violent battle between Cruz and the bad guys." - Library Journal, "Combining elements of the locked-room mystery, the disaster novel, and the lock-and-load thriller, Hunter produces a remarkably gripping tale, building character (the captives, the bureaucrats, and the "terrorists" all get compelling backstories) every bit as convincingly as he drives the narrative to its High Noonstyle finale." - Booklist (starred review), "Stephen Hunter didn't invent the high-action thriller. But, as he once again demonstrates in the lightning-paced Soft Target , he might as well have. . . . Soft Target is Die Hard with a brain and a plan. A lean, action-packed tale that begs to be read in a single sitting." - The Providence Journal

Synopsis
Hunter is back with a breakneck thriller brimming with his trademark action and masterful plotting, as ex-Marine sniper Ray Cruz confronts a group of murderous terrorists that has laid siege to the Mall of America., New York Timesbestselling author Stephen Hunter is back with a breakneck thriller brimming with his trademark action and masterful plotting, as ex-Marine sniper Ray Cruz confronts a group of murderous terrorists who've laid siege to the Mall of America. It starts out as a simple shopping trip with his fiancÉe. But suddenly, retired marine sergeant Ray Cruz, whom we met in Hunter's last bestseller,Dead Zero, is in the middle of the softest target of all, a huge emporium outside Minneapolis where a self-styled "Mumbai Brigade" has come to bring massive death to the heartland. Hunter flashes over the events as if in real time: the assembly of the killer team composed of terrorists from one of the world's hellholes, but led by a nihilistic insider who knows the mall backwards and forwards and has taken over the security software as well as the vast building and 1,000 hostages; the politics of SWAT as officials argue over tactics outside while the killing goes on inside; the panic in the halls of the death zone, as hostages are herded to an amusement park. As the clock ticks on, the terrorists begin to execute their captives. But they don't know Ray Cruz is in the building… With a nail-biting premise and singular hero who exhibits heart as well as guts,Soft Targetis everything a thriller should be-timely, shocking, and full of high-stakes drama.
