Book description
Jack Ryan Jr. returns in Locked On, the gripping new thriller
from Tom Clancy.
The Ryans - father and son - are fighting on two fronts . . .
When a deadly terrorist alliance creates the potential to blackmail
any world power into submission, it's got to be stopped before it is
too late. That's just the trigger Jack Ryan Jr needs to take his work
for shadowy intelligence agency The Campus from the back room to the
sharp end: black ops.
Meanwhile, his father, Jack Ryan Sr, campaigning for re-election as
US President, is up against a privately funded vendetta to discredit
him. Caught at the heart of the conspiracy is former Navy SEAL, John
Clark. And Ryan Sr soon discovers that being his friends could have
deadly consequences.
With the breakneck speed and military action scenes that have made
him the premier thriller writer of our time, Tom Clancy delivers a
novel of high-tech warfare in which the enemy within may be even more
devastating than the enemy without.
Locked On follows the gripping Dead or Alive and
The Teeth of the Tiger as the explosive third novel in Tom
Clancy's Jack Ryan Jr. series.
