The chaos has died down and after taking a short break from writing while I was traveling, I’m back to work on Mitch’s nineteenth adventure. The series continues to spark fans’ imaginations, and I’ve enjoyed talking Rapp with readers and radio hosts.
If you missed the conversations about Lethal Agent this fall, I’ve gathered some of my favorites here so you can catch up. Find out what it was like to take over the series, what people think about Mitch’s latest mission, and what’s on the horizon.
RADIO AND PODCASTS
Bumper to Bumper with Dan Barreiro

Radio host Dan Barreiro is the man to listen to on a weekday afternoon in Minneapolis. Dan was a fantastic supporter of Vince’s, and he’s always the first live interview I do when the book tour officially kicks off. Our conversation begins at the 45:13 mark.
The Hugh Hewitt Show
“I couldn’t put it down. It was everything I expected from a well done Mitch Rapp book.” Coming from host Hugh Hewitt, a longtime friend and fan of Vince’s, this meant a lot. Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3.
Red Carpet Crash
“Mitch Rapp is such a bad a$$!” I have to admit that I really like an interview with such an enthusiastic fan. This was a fun conversation because we talked about how I love putting Mitch in situations that aren’t comfortable for him. This time I stuck him in Mexico where he doesn’t know the players, doesn’t understand the drug trade, and doesn’t speak Spanish.
John Gibson’s Saturday Morning Author Interview
“What are the essential personality traits that define Mitch Rapp?” Focused and patriotic, without a doubt. As fans all know, once Rapp locks onto a target there’s nothing that can pull him off. Listen here.
The Bruce Ciskie Show
Bruce teed up this interview with, “My favorite book series is back!” If you’re a longtime fan, there’s some good character discussion in here for you. Spoiler alert: If you haven’t read the book, save this one for after you do.
The Larry O’Connor Show
“You were about the same age as Mitch Rapp when the Pan Am 103 terror attack happened and your dad was intricately involved in the investigation.” Eerie, true, AND now it’s come full circle. Here’s why…
The Marc Cox Morning Show
We talk about threats to America and smarmy politicians. Tune in to discover Marc’s favorite quote from the book. I have to admit it’s one of mine, too.
The Ross Kaminsky Show
“I read this character as the perfect blend of the worst attributes of the presidential candidates from 2016. I loved to hate her…” That’s exactly what I intended. In this interview we cover how I created the evil senator who wants to be president and how pandemics fundamentally change society.
Need To Know With Jeff Angelo
“How do you keep yourself from being scared about all the threats that are out there all the time?” All I have to say is I don’t recommend doing a lot of research into the plague and Spanish flu if you tend to worry a lot. The interview begins at the 9:36 mark.
VIDEO
The Crew Reviews Show
Lots of funny stories in this video, including when I tried to give the money I'd been paid back to my publisher so I could quit writing my second book.
Both witty and knowledgeable about the genre, the publishing industry, and writing because they’re all writers, too. Viewers get to see their favorite authors in serious mode as well as their laugh-out-loud moments. Here’s mine.
The Poisoned Pen
