Razio Jamata, mocný finančník, se rozhodne pomstít své rodiče, kteří zemřeli během války. Místo konvenční války plánuje zasáhnout ekonomiku a nervovou soustavu USA promyšlenými operacemi. Jeho cíl: vyvolat chaos a zoufalství mezi miliony Američanů, což by mohlo vyústit v ozbrojený konflikt. Jamata ví, že jeho plán je odvážný a reálný, a americké vedení si brzy uvědomí, že čelí nebezpečné hře, jejíž protivník je neznámý. Do záchranné akce se pouští Jack Ryan, bývalý agent CIA a nynější poradce prezidenta pro národní bezpečnost. Ryan ví, že čas běží a události se rychle vyvíjejí, přičemž krize ohrožuje nejen USA, ale i celý vyspělý svět. Situaci komplikuje i nevyzpytatelné Rusko a znepokojená Čína.

TOM CLANCY'S GREATEST CHARACTERS FACE THEIR DEADLIEST CHALLENGE. After nearly a decade, the master of international intrigue returns to a world rife with chaos, where power struggles threaten annihilation. In response, a secret entity known as the Campus was established under President Jack Ryan, tasked with hunting down and eliminating terrorists without oversight. This self-sufficient group operates independently of the American government, navigating a landscape where loyalty and justice are often disregarded. Covert intelligence expert Jack Ryan Jr. and his team at the Campus wage a silent war against global threats. They are joined by black ops warriors John Clark and "Ding" Chavez, along with Brian and Dominic Caruso and Mary Pat Foley. Their greatest challenge arises from a sadistic killer known as the Emir, a mastermind behind numerous horrific attacks who has evaded capture by law enforcement worldwide. The Campus is determined to change that, especially as the Emir plans a devastating strike against America. On a deadly manhunt, Jack Ryan Jr. follows in his father's footsteps, pursuing the Emir across the globe and into the intricate world of political maneuvering. As they race against time, an all-star cast of Clancy's characters unites to prevent a catastrophe that could threaten the very heart of the West, embarking on a desperate search for a madman who may be hiding in plain sight.

Time and again, Tom Clancy's novels have been praised not only for their big-scale drama and propulsive narrative drive but for their cutting-edge prescience in predicting future events. In The Bear and the Dragon , the future is very near at hand indeed. Newly elected in his own right, Jack Ryan has found that being President has gotten no easier: domestic pitfalls await him at every turn; there's a revolution in Liberia; the Asian economy is going down the tubes; and now, in Moscow, someone may have tried to take out the chairman of the SVR--the former KGB--with a rocket-propelled grenade. Things are unstable enough in Russia without high-level assassination, but even more disturbing may be the identities of the potential assassins. Were they political enemies, the Russian Mafia, or disaffected former KGB? Or, Ryan wonders, is something far more dangerous at work here? Ryan is right. For even while he dispatches his most trusted eyes and ears, including black ops specialist John Clark, to find out the truth of the matter, forces in China are moving ahead with a plan of truly audacious proportions. If they succeed, the world as we know it will never look the same. If they fail...the consequences will be unspeakable. Blending the exceptional realism and authenticity that are his hallmarks with intricate plotting, razor-sharp suspense, and a remarkable cast of characters, this is Clancy at his best--and there is none better.
