This book by Tom Clancy has the distinction of being the author’s only book focusing on the origin story of a “secondary” (or recurring) character throughout his Jack Ryan series of novels. That secondary character, who becomes John Clark, is former Navy Seal John Kelly.

While this novel isn’t as integrally plotted as the Jack Ryan “techno-thrillers,” it is more character-driven than Clancy’s previous works. In light of the character’s stoic history (or, with this being a “prequel” of sorts, the character’s future), I think it was probably a bit difficult to write in terms of balancing the character’s emotions.…

Tom Clancy is well known for the technical military thrillers in his Jack Ryan series. This story is the first spinoff from that series about John Clark, the former Navy SEAL who decides to take on the drug-dealer world single-handedly while working for the U.S. government to lead a secret rescue mission overseas.

I feel that the intense drama of the action scenes, as well as the powerful surprise ending, make this story well worth the time to devour.
