Jack Ryan, Jr.'s race to stop an international criminal conspiracy is intertwined with the fate of an old friend in this blistering entry in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

The clues are thin, and the sketchy trail dead ends in a harrowing fight from which he barely escapes with his life. If that's not bad enough, Jack gets more tragic news. An old friend, who's dying from cancer, has one final request for Jack. It seems simple enough, but before it's done, Jack will find himself alone, his life hanging by a thread. If he survives, he'll be one step closer to finding the shadowy figure behind the CIA leak and its true purpose, but in the process, he'll challenge the world's most dangerous criminal syndicate with devastating consequences.

Une semaine avant sa mort, Nel a appelé sa soeur, Julia. Qui n'a pas voulu lui répondre. Alors que le corps de Nel vient d'être retrouvé dans la rivière qui traverse Beckford, leur ville natale, Julia est effrayée à l'idée de revenir sur les lieux de son enfance.

Ou de faire face à un passé qu'elle a toujours fui ?
