Jack Ryan returns to take on Irish terrorists in Clancy's third No 1 bestselling thriller - now reissued with a new cover. When Ryan foils an Ulster Liberation Army terrorist attack on the Prince of Wales and his family, his courageous actions not only win him the admiration of an entire nation, they also arouse the enmity and hatred of that nation's most dangerous men. Now a ULA target himself, Jack Ryan plunges into the murky world of counter-intelligence, where he uncovers a connection between the ULA and an international underground network that places him at the forefront of the deadly battle against international terrorism, and pitches him into the most desperate struggle of his life...

Since the publication of The Hunt for Red October, Tom Clancy has established an unrivalled position as the world's leading thriller writer, with a string of million-selling novels and three major Hollywood films to his name. He is also the author of SSN and the non-fiction books Submarine, Armoured Warfare, Fighter Wing and Marine, and the co-creator of the Op-Centre series.

From the reviews of Patriot Games: 'Tom Clancy has picked up the fiction mantle where Frederick Forsyth left off. The fast action thriller that Clancy fans have come to expect.' Sunday Times 'Tom Clancy has done it again! Compelling and spine-tingling, superb . . . highly imaginative, believable and horrifying. He sustains a high pitch of excitement . . . a splendid read.'
