A Russian plan to open a strategic passage above the Arctic Circle poses a direct threat to the United States and to President Jack Ryan in the latest electrifying entry in this #1 New York Times bestselling series.
The U.S. Navy rules the seas--not only above the waters but below. A large factor in that sovereignty is a network of undersea listening devices scattered around the worlds oceans. Through these devices the Americans have been able to track every move the Russians make for years.
Now the Russians have found a solution--create a new ocean or at least ocean passage that only they can use. To this end, they have harnessed nuclear power to melt an icy passage above the Arctic Circle. Not only will this allow Russians ships and submarines to travel undetected, it will shift the balance of power among the navies of the world.
President Jack Ryan is faced with a insoluble problem. Any attack on the Russian icebreakers will be an act of war, and maybe even worse, because of the nuclear material being used, could lead to an environmental calamity of epic proportions.
M. P. Woodward is a veteran of both US intelligence ops and the entertainment industry. As a naval intelligence officer with the US Pacific Command, he scripted scenario moves and countermoves for US war game exercises in the Middle East. In multiple deployments to the Persian Gulf and Far East, he worked alongside US Special Forces, CIA, and NSA. After leaving the Navy, Woodward ran international distribution marketing for Amazon Prime Video. Today, he is a full-time writer based in Washington State.
