Weaponized/Nicholas Mennuti with David Guggenheim/336 pgs.

Having fled the United States after charges were filed against him and his former boss, Christopher Chandler (a government contractor), Kyle West is in hiding in Cambodia. Kyle is approached by a stranger, Julian Robinson, who wants to swap passports and identities with Kyle. Kyle is a desperate man, and this seems to be the answer to his prayers. What is that old saying? Oh, yeah: if something seems too good to be true, it usually is. If Kyle had troubles before, it's nothing compared to what he encounters once the identity switch occurs. There are Chinese operatives, CIA agents, and others out to "find" Julian Robinson. Did I mention that the switch is only effective because Julian and Kyle have such a strong resemblance to each other? This book is one fast ride, and the ending leaves you wondering if this a "one and only," or if it's the beginning of a new series. Highly recommended!
