Book description
Tom Clancy's great hero, Jack Ryan Jr, returns in Threat
Vector: an explosive tale of global superpowers doing battle.
Jack Ryan has only just moved back into the Oval Office when he is
faced with a new international threat. An aborted coup in the People's
Republic of China has left President Wei Zhen Lin with no choice but
to agree with the expansionist policies of General Su Ke Quiang. They
have declared the South China Sea a protectorate and are planning an
invasion of Taiwan.
The Ryan administration is determined to thwart these Chinese
ambitions, but the stakes are dangerously high as hundreds of Chinese
anti-ship missiles thwart the US Navy's plans to protect the island.
Meanwhile, Chinese cyber warfare experts have launched a devastating
attack on American infrastructure.
Jack Ryan Jr and his colleagues at the Campus may be just the wild
card that his father needs to stack the deck. There's just one
problem: someone knows about the off-the-books intelligence agency and
may be ready to blow their cover sky high.
Threat Vector follows the gripping novels Locked On
and Dead or Alive as the fourth title in Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan
Jr Series.
