À propos de la quatrième de couverture

TOM CLANCY'S SPELLBINDING ESPIONAGE THRILLER SENDS JACK RYAN DEEP INTO ENEMY TERRITORY AS THE SUPERPOWERS RACE FOR THE ULTIMATE STAR WARS MISSILE DEFENCE SYSTEM

The international arms negotiations appear to be making progress. But a US spy satellite reveals that the Soviets are building a massive laser-defence system controlled from an other-worldly array of pillars and domes in the Soviet hills at Dushanbe near the border of war-torn Afghanistan.

The Americans need more information. The man to give it is Colonel Mikhail Filitov of the Soviet Union, codename Cardinal, America's highest-placed agent in the Kremlin. But Filitov's cover is about to be betrayed to the KGB, and CIA adviser Jack Ryan must rescue Filitov and bring him to safety…

‘Has the authentic feel of espionage…superlative…Tom Clancy has written a great spy novel.’
BOB WOODWARD, 'Washington Post'
