Cinque ex agenti dei servizi di Gheddafi devono essere eliminati per evitare che rivelino informazioni riservate sul conto del defunto dittatore, informazioni che potrebbero risultare imbarazzanti per le democrazie occidentali. Jack Ryan jr, figlio del Presidente degli Stati Uniti, ha già concluso la missione quando scopre di essere stato filmato. Chi lo sta facendo pedinare? Chi vuole ricattarlo? Intanto il clima politico fra Stati Uniti e Cina si fa sempre più teso. C’è chi, sfruttando come pretesto i problemi di confine nel mar della Cina, trama per scatenare uno scontro senza esclusione di colpi. E una serie di attacchi informatici mina la sicurezza dell’America e la sua stabilità anche economica. Fra dirottamenti di droni militari, centrali nucleari in surriscaldamento, mezzi navali e aerei in transito sulle zone calde del pianeta, in una frenetica caccia all’uomo che si dipana tra Washington e Hong Kong, Miami e Canton, Mosca e Istanbul, l’attualità si intreccia con la fantasia per evocare lo spettro di un futuro fin troppo probabile.

Oggi però esistono sistemi molto più efficaci di Gentry, e persino un agente speciale come lui è diventato inutile. Ecco perché è giunto il momento della resa dei conti. Gentry riuscirà a scampare alla vendetta e a dimostrare che non esiste una zona grigia tra uccidere per vivere e uccidere per restare in vita?

Teraz, z przeszłości powraca jego dawny kompan, zmuszając go do podjęcia niebezpiecznej misji.

President Jack Ryan is nog maar net teruggekeerd in het Witte Huis als hij zich geconfronteerd ziet met een internationale crisis. Een mislukte staatsgreep in de Volksrepubliek China dwingt de Chinese president Wei Zhen Lin om in te stemmen met de expansiepolitiek van generaal Su Ke Quiang. De Zuid-Chinese Zee wordt geclaimd en Chinese troepen worden in opperste paraatheid gebracht voor een invasie van Taiwan. Ryan en zijn kabinet zijn vastbesloten om China af te stoppen, maar China heeft een nieuwe generatie raketten ontwikkeld die de Amerikaanse marineschepen die Taiwan moeten beschermen, bedreigen. Tegelijkertijd hebben computerexperts een allesvernietigende cyberaanval ingezet op de Amerikaanse infrastructuur, een nieuw soort oorlogvoering die vele malen gevaarlijker is dan welke eerdere aanval op de Verenigde Staten dan ook. In een ultieme poging de crisis te bestrijden, doet president Ryan een beroep op de Campus. Maar er is één probleem voor deze ultrageheime dienst die volledig onder de radar van de Amerikaanse politiek opereert: iemand weet van hun bestaan af en dreigt hun identiteit te onthullen.
In Rusland is de macht van president Valeri Volodin tanende en in een poging het verloren gegane terrein terug te veroveren, verlegt hij zijn ambities naar het buitenland. Omdat de Verenigde Staten in het verleden dergelijke expansieplannen altijd hebben gedwarsboomd, besluit Volodin tot een andere aanpak. Een drijvende gasinstallatie in Litouwen wordt opgeblazen. In Venezuela wordt een aanklager vermoord. Bij een aanval op een trein met Russische troepen vallen tientallen doden. Wereldwijde chaos is het gevolg. De terreuraanslagen lijken niets met elkaar te maken te hebben, tot president Jack Ryan een beangstigend patroon ontdekt. Maar hij heeft geen bewijs…
