“One of the best thrillers I have read this year.”–Books and Movie Reviews (re Any Means Necessary)In the much-anticipated debut of a new series by #1 bestseller Jack Mars, when elite Delta Force soldier Luke Stone, 29, joins a secretive government agency, he is dispatched on the mission of a lifetime: a whirlwind race across Europe and the Mid-East to save the President’s daughter before she is … daughter before she is beheaded by terrorists.
In PRIMARY TARGET (Book #1), we see the forging of one of the world’s toughest—and most lethal—soldiers: Luke Stone. A 29 year old veteran who has seen enough battle to last a lifetime, Luke is tapped by the Special Response Team, a secretive new FBI agency (led by his mentor Don Morris) to tackle the most high-stake terrorism operations in the world.
Luke, still haunted by his wartime past and newly married to an expecting Becca, is dispatched on a mission to Iraq, with his new partner Ed Newsam, to bring in a rogue American contractor. But what begins as a routine mission mushrooms into something much, much bigger.
When the President’s teenage daughter, kidnapped in Europe, is ransomed by terrorists, Luke may be the only one in the world who can save her before it is too late.
PRIMARY TARGET is an un-putdownable military thriller, a wild action ride that will leave you turning pages late into the night. It marks the long-anticipated debut of a riveting new series by #1 bestseller Jack Mars, dubbed “one of the best thriller authors” out there.
“Thriller writing at its best.”

The story starts with the U.S. President’s daughter, Eliszabeth, being kidnapped and held for ransom. CIA Agent, Bill Cronin, commands a group of agents and troops around the world to find her. Unbelievable story follows. A must read!!!
I didn’t finish the book so I acknowledge that things might improve during the course of the book. I didn’t find the characters or the storyline credible and this is the genre that I typically have liked. Since it didn’t captivate me, I cut my losses and moved on to the next book.
Great action packed novel with multiple intertwined intersecting plots!
Awesome, with action constantly. Fast read.
I love books about the military figures and what they do. They are so interesting and do such fantastic work. Luke Stone is now my hero. I look forward to my next Luke Stone book.
Very intense. Kept you on the edge of your seat. Hope to read more from that author.
I couldn’t get enough of this series!
Love the Luke Stone character
On the edge of your seat drama with lots of fast paced action.
This book is part of a series – one of the best series around, well researched, well written. Although it is fiction, it is believable as fact. Try it – you’ll be hooked.
OK
The first half was pretty slow, but finished strong.
Was a little easy to guess were it was going but was pretty good easy read
For me, very graphic! I got to the point of flipping a page or to skipping the detail part of the actions.
Great book
An excellent, fast-paced read that kept me up late at night! It is very realitic and compelling. You will not be disappointed.
A flawed hero. But he is pretty messed up by PTSD. This is to say, Luke’s flaws run deep and I wonder how he could hold it together.
I cannot imagine going through this!!! I would go completely insane to have my child taken. Good story and ending.
Fun read. Action Packed
Awesome book
