<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In a lethal game of cat-and-mouse that is the Soviet Union versus the United States, the Pope's life is in danger, as is the stability of the Western world. Jack Ryan is at the center of the action, but it may already be too late for a novice CIA analyst to do anything about the conflict. This is Clancy at his best--and there is none better.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Tom Clancy reveals the details of Jack Ryan's first days with the CIA in this #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestseller.</b> <p/>It's the early 1980s--and historian, teacher, and recent ex-Marine Jack Ryan is now a CIA officer on loan to the British SIS. On his very first day, an extraordinary document crosses his desk. Because of government repression in Poland, the new Pope, John Paul II, has threatened to resign his papacy. <p/> In Moscow, another man is contemplating the very same document. Yuriy Andropov, the chairman of the KGB, does not like what he reads, does not like what it means for him or for his nation. All it takes is one man to cause everything he has worked for to crumble. All it takes is one man to stop him. The Pope is very powerful, but he is also mortal....<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Red Rabbit</i> <p/></b>"An impressive achievement."--<i>The Washington Post</i><br><b><br></b>"Demonstrate[s] what Tom Clancy does best."--<i>Fort Worth Star-Telegram</i> <p/> "An entertaining tale of well-matched wits and high-tech gadgetry."--<i>The Tallahassee Democrat</i><b> <p/>More Praise for Tom Clancy</b> <p/>"He constantly taps the current world situation for its imminent dangers and spins them into an engrossing tale."--<i><i>The New York Times Book Review</i></i> <p/>"A brilliant describer of events."--<i><i>The Washington Post</i></i> <p/>"No one can equal his talent for making military electronics and engineering intelligible and exciting...He remains the best!"--<i><i>Houston Chronicle</i></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>A little more than thirty years ago <b>Tom Clancy </b>was a Maryland insurance broker with a passion for naval history. Years before, he had been an English major at Baltimore's Loyola College and had always dreamed of writing a novel. His first effort, <i>The Hunt for Red October</i>--the first of the phenomenally successful Jack Ryan novels--sold briskly as a result of rave reviews, then catapulted onto the <i>New York Times</i> bestseller list after President Reagan pronounced it "the perfect yarn." From that day forward, Clancy established himself as an undisputed master at blending exceptional realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense. He passed away in October 2013.
