Synopsis

A terrorist bomb explodes during a South Korean celebration of the anniversary of the election of its first president. Alarms are raised in Washington. No one is claiming responsibility. The first suspect is North Korea. Could it be making a power play against South Korea and unification? If so, how will the U.S. respond? Paul Hood, Director of the Op-Center, must answer these questions. The Op-Center, a largely autonomous new agency which takes on the government's toughest security problems, is only six months old, and has never been given a foreign crisis until now. Hood's team, which includes a general, a former ambassador, a psychologist, and a computer specialist, tries to find the solution, only to discover a factor that could change the new world order.

About The Author

Best-selling author Tom Clancy was an English major at Baltimore’s Loyola College and he had a dream of writing a novel. As a Maryland insurance broker with a passion for naval history, his dream came true with his first effort, The Hunt for Red October. He has since written more than a dozen novels, which have a blend of realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense. Ten of the novels, including The Teeth of the Tiger feature the character Jack Ryan, former stock broker and CIA employee. Mr. Clancy’s nonfiction works include a series of guided tours of America’s warfighting assets, Submarine, Armored Cav, Fighter Wing, Marine, and Airborne. He lives in Maryland.

He spends a lot of time telling you stuff that's really irrelevant; going on about what gauge and model the shotgun is and what type/brand of ammunition it holds and how many per clip, etc. I don't care about......more

Το βιβλίο το έγραψε κάποιος Τζεφ Ρόβιν, αλλά πίσω από την ιδέα και το όλο πρότζεκτ κρύβονται οι Τομ Κλάνσι και Στιβ Πίτσενικ. Έστω και εμμέσως, αυτή αποτελεί την πρώτη μου επαφή με βιβλία του Τομ Κλάνσι (όχι όμως γενικά με τον Τομ Κλάνσι, μιας και όταν ήμουν Γυμνασιόπαιδο έπαιξα τα φοβερά Pandora To......more

I couldn't get into this one to be honest. I think Tim Clancy's older books are way better. This was a decent story but Hunt for Red October and Clear and Present Danger still set the bar for Tom Clancy. Not a bad book I just thought it was OK...way better than Power Plays Politik.......more
