Tom Clancy Command and Control - The tense, superb new Jack Ryan thriller (Hardcover)

JACK RYAN IS TRAPPED. AN ASSASSIN INCOMING. TIME TO TAKE CONTROL. In this high-octane twenty-third instalment of Tom Clancy's heart-pounding, #1 New York Times bestselling series, President Jack Ryan finds himself caught in the middle of a military coup in South America. President Jack Ryan travels to Colombia to support the president who is facing a challenge from autocratic forces. What seems like an ordinary opportunity to preach the values of democracy quickly turns into a nightmare when a full-blown military coup erupts. President Ryan and his Secret Service team are cut off and out of communication. In Washington, the Vice President is coordinating a military response, but there's still one more obstacle. The Russians recognize an opportunity when one presents itself. They've hired a private military contractor to do the unthinkable - use the cover of the coup to assassinate President Jack Ryan. ___________ PRAISE FOR TOM CLANCY 'Constantly taps the current world situation for its imminent dangers and spins them into an engrossing tale' NEW YORK TIMES 'Exhilarating.
