One split second is all it can take . . . Jack Ryan, Jr. finds himself at the scene of a conspiracy to bring the world to the brink of war in the South China Sea in the latest breathtaking Tom Clancy thriller. Jack Ryan, Jr. is in a world of trouble. A mid-air collision between aircraft from rival nations in the South China Sea threatens to serve as a flash point for the entire region. As Jack frantically tries to put the pieces of the conspiracy together, the Campus is hit with a crippling attack. When the dust settles, Jack is one of the few operators still standing and the Campus's de facto leader. But the fight is just beginning. As tensions escalate, Jack's mysterious adversary executes a brilliant campaign to paralyse the American government even as China inches closer to invading Taiwan. With the odds stacked against him and no help in sight, Jack and his shattered team must stop the world's two remaining superpowers from stumbling into war even as the noose around the Campus grows ever tighter. Every operation has a cost. This time the bill might just be too much to pay. Praise for Tom Clancy 'Constantly taps the current world situation for its imminent dangers and spins them into an engrossing tale' New York Times 'Heart-stopping action . . . entertaining and eminently topical' Washington Post 'A virtuoso display of page-turning talent' Sunday Express 'Exhilarating. No other novelist is giving so full a picture of modern conflict' Sunday Times 'A brilliantly constructed thriller that packs a punch' Daily Mail

About the Author

Don Bentley (Author)

TOM CLANCY was the author of eighteen New York Times bestsellers. His first, The Hunt for Red October, sold briskly as a result of rave reviews, then catapulted into the bestseller list after President Reagan pronounced it 'the perfect yarn'. Clancy was the undisputed master at blending exceptional realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense. He passed away in 2013.

DON BENTLEY spent a decade as an Army Apache helicopter pilot, and while deployed in Afghanistan was awarded the Bronze Star and the Air Medal with "V" device for valor. Following his time in the military, Bentley worked as an FBI special agent focusing on foreign intelligence and counterintelligence and was a Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team member.
