About this listen
When a team of assassins murder a high-ranking North Korean general and his family in their sleep, making it look like a robbery, events are set in motion that could shake the balance of world powers. Meanwhile a US naval combat ship, the USS Milwaukee, is attacked by North Korean forces in the middle of a training exercise off the shore of South Korea, and Commander Kate Bigelow is forced to ground the ship to avoid being captured.
The crew takes refuge on a tiny island, trapped dangerously between the grounded ship and a fleet of hostile North Korean soldiers. Op-Center intelligence discovers a secret alliance behind the attack - a pact between China and North Korea that guarantees China total control of a vast oil reserve found beneath the Yellow Sea. As both sides marshal their forces for a major confrontation at sea, Chase Williams and his Op-Center organization devise a plan to spirit the American crew secretly from the island and out from under North Korean control. But the North Koreans are not finished.
In a desperate gamble, they unleash a terrorist cell on the American homeland. Only Op-Center can uncover their plan and stop it in time to prevent a major catastrophe that could lead to all-out war.

Story
A terrorist bomb explodes during a South Korean celebration of the anniversary of the election of its first president. Alarms are raised in Washington. No one is claiming responsibility. The first suspect is North Korea. Could it be making a power play against South Korea and unification? If so, how will the U.S. respond? Paul Hood, Director of the Op-Center, must answer these questions. The Op-Center, a largely autonomous new agency which takes on the government's toughest security problems, is only six months old, and has never been given a foreign crisis until now.

In this factual account written with General Carl Steiner (Ret.), a commander who held responsibility for all U.S. Special Operations forces across all service lines, we get special insight into a largely secretive community whose members do not talk about their work. We hear about it only afterwards: the Achille Lauro hijacking, the "takedown" of Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega, the efforts to find Aidid in Somalia. These are men sent in to do the impossible - and often, they achieve it.

Clancy is one of my favorite authors.
I've read/listened to most, if not all, of Clancy's books and each one has exceeded my expectations. His stories gets your attention from the very first page and maintains it through to the very last. I'm always looking forward to his next book and usually listen to it as soon as it is published. I recommend this book to anyone interested in fiction that is not outside the possibility of actually happening.

Did not disappoint!
Carried the torch forward with the story line! I'm an avid fan was not disappointed with the book, was not real impressed with Henry leyvas narration. No great definition between the different parts making parts of the book hard to follow.

One of Many Op-Centers
While not up to Tom Clancy's own work, the story is good with not excessive "obvious plot". However, the narration was horrible! The routine narration was decent, but the narrator's attempt to alter voices for various characters reminded me of voices for various Saturday morning cartoon characters with the optimistic "gee-Whiz' voice inflection.

Not up to Clancy's standard...
While this book was somewhat entertaining, it lacked substance and depth in the storyline. Everything was summed up to quickly and with little imagination. I'm saddened to think that nobody can capture the suspense and intrigue that Clancy was known for.
