Full Black, published in 2011, is the 10th book in the Scot Harvath series of novels written by the series creator, Brad Thor. It is the 11th book if you count The Athena Project, which did include Harvath in a couple of chapters, but the group of female spies was that book's focus, not Harvath.
Full Black involves the threat of multiple terrorist attacks on the United States, including hitting many "soft" targets simultaneously in multiple waves. The goal of the attacks is the complete disabling and collapse of the United States. There are two storylines that are parallel through most of the book but connect toward the end as the plots play out. One involves a Russian wetwork team sent to take out a Hollywood producer, and the other involves Harvath and his team going after the terrorist network. The second plotline ties back to the events of the 9th novel in the series Foreign Influence.
The hardcover version of the book is about 380 pages long. The pace and tone of the books are very similar to the other books in the series, and it has a good blend of action and suspense. It includes several new characters, and Thor does a good job of developing them enough to get the readers invested in them without slowing down the overall story. If you are a fan of the prior books in the series, this one is worth the time to read.
