Book Description
The United States has stared down many threats with President Jack Ryan at the helm, but what if he’s not there when we need him? That’s the question facing a nation in the most shocking entry in Tom Clancy's #1 New York Times bestselling series. A shadowy billionaire uses his fortune to further his corrupt ambitions. Along the way, he’s toppled democratically elected governments and exacerbated divisions within stable nations. The competitors he’s destroyed, the people he’s hurt, they’re all just marks on a ledger. Now, he’s ready to implement his most ambitious plan of all. There’s only one force standing in his way—President Jack Ryan. How do you compel a man like Jack Ryan to bend? He’s personally faced down everything from the Russian navy to cartel killers. It will take more than political headwinds or media disfavor to cause him to turn from his duty to the American people, but every man has an Achilles heel. Jack Ryan’s is his family. The answer is as simple as it is shocking. The billionaire has assembled an international team of the most ruthless mercenaries alive. Their mission—kidnap the First Lady.

Book Description
Der Aufstieg zur Macht des neuen starken Mannes in Russland verdankt sich dunklen Machenschaften, die Jahrzehnte zurückliegen. Ausgerechnet President Jack Ryan war daran nicht ganz unbeteiligt, aber er ist auch der Einzige, der jetzt den Übergriff einer wiedererwachten Weltmacht auf die Krim stoppen kann. In einem fiktiven, aber nicht minder wirklichkeitsnahen Szenario zeigt Tom Clancy auf beeindruckende Weise, wie schnell alte Fronten wieder stehen, wenn Großmachtstreben und wirtschaftliche Interessen sich in die Hand spielen. Der russische Präsident Wolodin droht mit der militärischen Annexion Estlands, der Ukraine und anderer ehemaliger Staaten der UdSSR. Bei seinem Plan unterstützt ihn der erstarkte Inlandsgeheimdienst FSB, Nachfolger des KGB, indem die Zielländer mit seiner Hilfe von innen untergraben werden. Dass die USA und andere Westmächte angeblich antirussische Provokationen anstachelten, dient schließlich als Grund, in Estland einzumarschieren. Hier kann die Invasion mit einem NATO-Einsatz schnell gestoppt werden, während die Ukraine zum nächsten Pulverfass wird. US-Präsident Jack Ryan sen. hat in diesem wiedererwachten Kalten Krieg alle Hände voll zu tun, die Situation zu entschärfen, und wo sie ihm gebunden sind, kommen seine klandestin operierenden Gefährten zum Einsatz: John Clark, die Mannen des Campus und sein Sohn Jack Ryan jun. Command Authority – Kampf um die Krim ist ein hochaktueller, actionreicher Jack-Ryan-Roman, in dem Tom Clancy derzeitige weltpolitische Entwicklungen frappierend präzise vorhergesehen hat.

Book Description
A New York Times bestseller! Tom Clancy's Op-Center is back with this new thriller written by the New York Times bestselling authors of Tom Clancy's ACT OF VALOR and featuring a chilling, ripped-from-the-headlines scenario. Before 9/11 America was protected by a covert force known as the National Crisis Management Center. Commonly known as Op-Center, this silent, secret mantel guarded the American people and protected the country from enemies. The charter was top secret and Director Paul Hood reported directly to the president. Op-Center used undercover operatives with SWAT capabilities to diffuse crises around the world, and they were tops in their field. But after the World Trade Center disaster, in the interest of streamlining, OP-Center was disbanded-leaving the country in terrible danger. But when terrorists detonate bombs in sports stadiums around the country leaving men, women and children dead or mutilated, the President executes an emergency order to bring back Op-Center-an Op-Center capable of dealing with the high tech crises of the 21st Century, and there is a lethal one brewing in the Middle East. A renegade Saudi Prince with ambitions of controlling the world's oil supply has an ingenious plot to manipulate America into attacking Syria and launching a war against Iran. Next, they would ignite a sleeper cell to attack the America homeland, resulting in a bloodbath unlike any other. Only the men and women of Op-Center, using sophisticated technology, realize what is about to be unleashed. Only they have the courage to issue a warning no one wants to hear. But will anyone believe them?

Book Description
Tensions flare in Northwest Asia and Op-Center races to prevent World War III in this chilling, ripped-from-the-headlines thriller from the authors of the USA Today bestseller Out of the Ashes. When a team of assassins murder a high-ranking North Korean general and his family in their sleep, making it look like a robbery, events are set in motion that could shake the balance of world powers. Meanwhile, a U.S. naval combat ship, the USS Milwaukee, is attacked by North Korean forces in the middle of a training exercise off the shore of South Korea, and Commander Kate Bigelow is forced to ground the ship to avoid being captured. The crew takes refuge on a tiny island, trapped dangerously between the grounded ship and a fleet of hostile North Korean soldiers. Op-Center intelligence discovers a secret alliance behind the attack—a pact between China and North Korea that guarantees China total control of a vast oil reserve found beneath the Yellow Sea. As both sides marshal their forces for a major confrontation at sea, Chase Williams and his Op-Center organization devise a plan to secretly spirit the American crew from the island and out from under North Korean control. But the North Koreans are not finished. In a desperate gamble, they unleash a terrorist cell on the American homeland. Only Op-Center can uncover their plan and stop it in time to prevent a major catastrophe that could lead to all-out war.
