Without Remorse the book is about a guy who lost his wife and child in a car wreck after a career as a Navy Seal. He falls into depression and lives on a boat drinking himself to death. He meets a hooker, falls in love, helps her get clean, and befriends a doctor and his wife. The girlfriend dies because her pimps find her and torture her. He spends the rest of the book avenging her in increasingly inventive deaths. And running Navy Seal ops on the side.
The book is fantastic. I think I’ve read it 8-10 times.
The movie is not that. Typical spy craft movie, CIA bad no wait good, Russian are trying to start a war, etc etc etc.
