An Charts and Washington Post bestseller.
For fans of Tom Clancy and Lee Child, a heart-pumping thriller of betrayal, revenge, and conspiracy by USA Today bestselling author Steven Konkoly.
Former CIA operative turned mercenary for hire Ryan Decker’s specialty is rescuing kidnap victims. Hired by an influential US senator to liberate her daughter from a human-trafficking ring, Decker never anticipated sabotage or that the assault could go so disastrously wrong. The hostage is dead. His team is wiped out, and so are their families, including Decker’s own wife and son—eliminated one by one by the Russian mafia. And he’s survived to take the fall.
When he’s inexplicably freed soon into a ten-year sentence in federal prison, Decker suspects another setup. And private investigator Harlow Mackenzie knows he’s right. She has evidence that a power greater than the Russian mob was behind the raid that ruined Decker’s life.
The next move in a nationwide cat-and-mouse game of high-level sedition is up to them. Fueled by revenge and an obsession to clear his name, Decker has only one mission to destroy a growing conspiracy before it’s too late.

"This mesmerizing, twisty-turny story was an absolute joy to read. The author has used his considerable (and specialized) military knowledge to build a masterfully layered plot with tortured hero Ryan Decker front and center. There is a plethora of wrong-doings Decker's character is compelled to make right. This thrilling first book in the author's new action-driven series tackles issues including the child sex-trade industry in the United States. Honestly, it kept me turning the pages until the very end."

The Rescue Ryan Decker Book 1 edition by Steven Konkoly Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
- The Rescue is the only First Read option out of six this month that is not either an introspective emotional journey of trauma and drama or the saga of an underdog’s empowerment (henceforth “angst-based drivel†or ABD). For that, it earns 5-stars from me, plus it’s a decent story. Many months, First Read doesn’t even offer one non-ABD option. Why did First Read become the launching pad of its usual drivel? Why not mainline history, Sci-Fi, politics, or heck even cooking or skill building?
- Did not read it. The language was inappropriate. I cannot read books with the f*** word used so much. Should be able to write adventure books without that, or similar, words.
- Steven Konkoly shines with this new thriller that hits the ground running. A complex thriller that satisfies the want for fast-paced action and a well-told story, THE RESCUE, is a must-read.
It immediately drops the reader into a well-drawn world of betrayal, revenge, and redemption. Ryan Decker is a flawed, relatable hero unstoppable in his drive to right every wrong.
Konkoly writes with such skill, the reader is there on the streets with hero Decker as he hunts for justice.
A brilliant story worthy of a long series. - I've been a long time reader of Mr. Konkoly, and always been impressed how his books drop you right in the middle of the action from page one. He has a unique talent for drawing you into the story without sacrificing other characteristics of great writing including character development and accurate, detailed environments.
This new series... wow, what an accomplishment. Ryan Decker is fantastic new protagonist that rivals Mitch Rapp, Jack Reacher, and even Jack Ryan. While murder, betrayal, and revenge may seem like an easy trifecta to write to, Mr. Konkoly does it with such realism and engagement that you can't help but get attached to the characters.
Every book he's written is always so well researched, that while the characters are fictional, the environments and situations that he puts them are laced with such detail that you can't help be feeling as if you're right there with Decker, looking over his shoulder. This can only be accomplished by putting in the effort to research every little detail, a true hallmark of Konkoly books.
I can't wait to read the next one. - When I first read the synopsis of The Rescue, I was not very interested in it for some reason. Not sure why. Since I have read and really enjoyed all of Konkoly's other books, I decided to give this a chance, and I'm glad I did.
The Rescue starts with Ryan Decker and his team trying to save a senator's daughter that was kidnapped when he wasn't supposed to be able to find her. His team gets setup, and he takes the blame. He goes to prison and loses everything.
After some time in prison, Decker gets help from an unexpected group and goes after those responsible as they are trying to eliminate him.
As with Konkoly's other series, I am now impatiently waiting on the follow up to The Rescue. I am happy that I decided to read this, and you will be as well. - If you are into this genre (Greaney, Coes, Eisler, Berenson, etc..) dont think twice about picking this one up.
A LOT happens in the first chapter or two and its slightly confusing. KEEP READING..it all comes together brilliantly. As usual, great characters, clearly a ton of research went into the subject matter and the action scenes (like all of his books) do not disappoint. Would argue that he and Greaney are top 2 in this genre as far as their abilities to incorporate their tactical knowledge into scenes that are so high adrenaline you cant do anything but shake your head and marvel. Finished in 2 days...stuck waiting for the next one! - This mesmerizing, twisty-turny story was an absolute joy to read. The author has used his considerable (and specialized) military knowledge to build a masterfully layered plot with tortured hero Ryan Decker front and center. There is a plethora of wrong-doings Decker's character is compelled to make right. This thrilling first book in the author's new action-driven series tackles issues including the child sex-trade industry in the United States. Honestly, it kept me turning the pages until the very end.
- Ryan Decker is framed, sent to prison, and then mysteriously released early only to begin a race to stay alive. He’s a dead man walking until he can uncover and expose the people who framed him. Plenty of action and twists to keep you reading late into the night. Definitely a must read.
