Resumen del Editor

A rogue nuclear Russian submarine is steaming toward the East Coast of the United States. For President Jack Ryan, memories of past events may seem stunningly vivid, but the dangers are terrifyingly real in the latest entry in this #1 New York Times bestselling series.

US intelligence is reporting turmoil in the Russian navy. Their deadliest submarine, the Belgorod, has unexpectedly launched, and taken along with it a long list of questions. Who authorized the departure? What mission is it on? And, most disturbing of all, what weapons do the giant doors on the sub’s bow hide?

It's been four decades since a similar incident with the Soviet sub, Red October, ended happily, thanks to a young CIA analyst named Jack Ryan.

Now, President Jack Ryan finds himself with fleets of ships, squadrons of jets, and teams of SEALs at his command, but what he doesn’t have is insight into the plans of the Belgorod’s commander. It falls to a younger generation of Ryans to do the dangerous work that will reveal that information.

But there’s always a price to be paid. When the final moments tick away, will Jack Ryan have to choose between the safety of his country and the safety of his child?

A fitting tribute to the master. Tom Clancy would be proud."—Jack Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Only the Dead

"Welcome back to Tom Clancy's world, where familiar and new characters untangle a conspiracy that threatens to light the world on fire. Andrews and Wilson pack in enough action for three books."—Larry Bond, New York Times bestselling author of Arctic Gambit

Jack Ryan and friends are in capable hands.”—Marc Cameron, New York Times bestselling author of Tom Clancy Command and Control

Tom Clancy would be proud!

andrews and Wilson deliver an amazing story no woke bs like the last few entries that went under the Tom clancy name just a true patriotic story of those who love this country and those that defend it keeps you on your toes the entire book

THIS IS A MUST LISTEN TO BOOK WITH NONSTOP ACTION!!

This book captures your attention from beginning to end. It's constant nonstop action makes you feel like you're standing in the characters shoes. Scott Brick is an outstanding narrator & this was his BEST narration ever. THIS IS A MUST LISTEN TO BOOK. I can't find the words to describe how great this book is!!!

A black fish & a battle bass rule the seas

Scott Brick’s narration brings in the characters roaring to life, filling each with appropriate measures of humility, hubris, warmth and coldness. I donned a fur-lined parka every time I put in my ear buds to listen just to ward off the chill from the Cold War going on in Poseidon’s living room. Another terrific chapter in the Jack Ryan series.

Clancyverse continues

Wow! I love their version of the Clancy Universe! This is the best continuation of the original Clancy story line that I have read yet! A masterful job tying in original details and keeping woth the style as it should be. As a life long Clancy fan, this makes me happy! Well done!

As no close to Clancy as you can get!!

LOVED this book! The writer totally nailed the story just like Clancy would have! Hollywood totally needs to bring back Harrison Ford and Ann Archer as Jack and Kathy Ryan… As I read these characters in this book, I could totally see them in my minds eye like the writer totally could too, as he peened their parts….

Well written story that is true to the art of Mr. Clancy and the pivotal actors that helped to make the Clancy thrillers such a hit on the big screen!!

Hats off to Brian Andrews and Jeffrey Wilson!! Well done Gentlemen!!

ok story, but definitely not Clancy

The John Clark story line was not even close to being consistent with previous works. it's pretty obvious the authors didn't even read the John Clark books.

Great Book!

I enjoy the verifiable detail, action and personalities! The timeliness progress well with few places that drag the story down!

Act of Defiance

Age timeline issues aside, this iteration is a true Clancy classic. A rousing tour de force chock full of callbacks to the original that laid the foundation for the entire Clancy genre thirty years ago.

Great Book!!!

Almost as good as The Hunt for The Red October. I couldn't put this book down!

Don't want to put it down!

Wow! I love Andrews and Wilson. I've read all their other collaborations. Great story tellers and Scott Brick is excellent. This one is a nail biter! Can't wait for their next story!
