Tom Clancy führt uns zurück zu Jack Ryans Anfängen als Wissenschaftler und Berater des CIA. Mitten in der heissesten Phase des Kalten Krieges soll er einen russischen Überläufer ausforschen, der hochbrisantes Material zu bieten hat: Ein Attentat auf den neuen, polnischen Papst ist geplant, und Jack Ryan muss es mit allen Mitteln verhindern. Tom Clancy, geboren 1947, arbeitete lange Jahre als Versicherungsagent. Eine Meuterei auf einem sowjetischen Zerstörer regte Clancy dazu an, seinen ersten Thriller, ''Jagd auf Roter Oktober'' zu schreiben. Das Buch wurde auf Anhieb ein internationaler Erfolg, der sich in der Verfilmung mit Sean Connery in der Hauptrolle wiederholte. Seither ist Tom Clancy der Erfolg treu geblieben, seine Romane belegen regelmässig über Wochen hinweg die ersten Plätze der internationalen Bestsellerlisten, die Verfilmungen mit Harrison Ford als Jack Ryan waren ausnahmslos Kassenschlager. Wie realistisch und gut recherchiert seine Bücher sind, zeigt die Tatsache, dass der Autor nach den Anschlägen vom 11. September von der amerikanischen Regierung als spezieller Berater hinzugezogen wurde ? in ''Befehl von oben'' hatte er ein Szenario entworfen, dass der späteren Realität erschreckend nahe kam.
