Publisher's Summary

FOR JACK RYAN, THE GREATEST THREAT LURKS BENEATH THE WAVES . . . AGAIN

When a Russian superweapon is let loose under the waves, it's up to President Jack Ryan to find a countermove 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. Who authorised 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?

Andrews and Wilson hit it out of the park.

Wow, for their first Clancy novel and marking the 40th anniversary publication of The Hunt for the Red October. It hit all the high watermarks. Characters from past novels make an appearance. Scott Brick again narrates the Ryanverce with aplomb. The only omission was Jack Jr bringing not his fiance Lizzane to dinner. but a minor detail. I can't wait for Andrews and Wilson's next instalment.

Back to the old school

Although I still have 3 hours to go and I hope it ends well I can already say that I'm very pleased with the approach of the two new authors taking the series back to its early days, bringing elements and characters from the Red October era, the one thing I found unbearable and super FORCED was to add Katie Ryan to the "family business", really didn't like that and legit it made no sense at all tbh
