__________

An international incident may fracture the Ryan family in the latest entry in this #1 New York Times bestselling series.

Luanda, Angola

An American intelligence team on a routine mission is wiped out. The sole survivor: Kyle Ryan, youngest son of President Jack Ryan.

But the massacre of his colleagues is just the prelude to an even more devastating conflict - a deadly military coup in the central African nation. The next step is a shocking escalation, the seizure of the American Embassy and the taking of numerous hostages including the ambassador and the younger Ryan.

As US forces fight insurgents street by street in the African capital city, Lieutenant Katie Ryan leads the effort to untangle the mystery behind the coup and the identity of the plotters. Is it the Chinese government? Is it a corrupt Angolan general? Or is there a darker force pulling the strings?

In the White House Situation Room, President Jack Ryan and his National Intelligence Team anxiously await the answers. He may have a full Marine Expeditionary Unit at his command, but the full executive power of the presidency is useless if they can't find the target.

One thing's for sure, Kyle and his fellow hostages sit at the center of the bullseye - human shields to deflect an American response. Jack Ryan has faced many challenges as President, but solving this problem is no one-man job. It's going to take all three of them to get through this.

A polarised setting of good and bad …
Good cowboys and bad Indians with the cavalry (Marins (glad it wasn’t ICE)) to the rescue.

Introducing new characters - spin offs…

It’s definitely not a Tom Clancy classic, but it will scratch your techno thriller itch. The Jack Ryan character feels less developed, his cabinet members very 2 dimensional, and I miss a lot of the broader fleshing out that would happen in the prime Clancy era. I read this immediately after finishing Rainbow Six and the contrast in styles is jarring.

Nevertheless, it does what it says on the tin.

Functional addition to the Ryanverse

I’ll keep it short for myself the Ryanverse “franchise” ( I hate that word when applied to creative works ) is more than safe and the baton/torch has been well and truly passed into the very safe hands of of Andrew’s and Wilson alongside the expanding capabilities of the Ryan siblings.
I’m not giving plot details away but for myself this is the best listen since Executive Orders and for myself that was my Clancy introduction in 2003 on a beach in India although I went back have now listened to everything including the offshoots.
A recommended listen.

Executive torch bearing continues apace.
