incredibly detailed and revealing look into politics, psychology, terrorism, ethics, responsibility and the state of current world events in relation to nuclear technology. awesome in scope and believability. ominous and sobering.

A terrorist mastermind has a plan for unleashing a nuclear weapon on the United States and starting the next world war. When everything goes wrong, both at home and at work, Jack Ryan is forced to unravel one of the greatest terrorist plans ever conceived, and try to save his marriage at the same time... This is my all around favorite, and I highly recommend it (as well as any Clancy book) to anyone who thinks they're ready for a story as gripping and as terrifying as this...

"President Robert Fowler is faced with a crisis that could end the world. The only catch is that he needs to take advice from Jack Ryan. Will he do it?"
