Tom Clancy’s Shadow of the Dragon

£7.99

When brilliant scientist Liu Wangshu disappears from his apartment, the Chinese authorities are furious, and certain they know what’s happened: a defection to the Americans. President Jack Ryan knows how valuable an asset Liu would be – the inventor is responsible for much of China’s recent technological progress, with his latest project rumoured to be the biggest yet. The problem is that none of Ryan’s team have any idea where Liu is. And what’s worse, Ryan discovers that China’s retaliation efforts have already begun: a mole has managed to infiltrate US intelligence, with a terrifying level of access. The new Cold War is about to get very hot indeed.

THE EXPLOSIVE NEW THRILLER IN THE BESTSELLING JACK RYAN SERIES

A global race against the clock . . .

The Chinese Navy is gaining power. With quieter submarines carrying ballistic missiles, they pose a critical threat to President Jack Ryan’s America. And behind their progress is just one man: eccentric scientist Liu Wangshu.

So when Liu goes missing, China suspects America’s involvement. What’s worse, President Jack Ryan discovers that a mole, code-named SURVEYOR, has infiltrated US intelligence to terrifying depths. Now more than ever, he needs the Chinese intelligence that Liu has to offer.

With the help of old ally John Clark and the Campus team, Ryan faces a double race against time. First, beat the Chinese government in a global hunt for Liu. Then scour the elite ranks of the CIA for SURVEYOR.

The heat is rising in this new Cold War . . .
