Publisher's summary

Kurdish terrorists have attacked a dam inside the borders of Turkey, threatening the water supply of their very homeland. It is not insanity, but the first step in a deceptively simple plan: force all-out war in the Middle East, drawing in the major players in the new world order.

What the terrorists don't know is that a new Regional Op-Center is now online in Turkey. A mobile version of the permanent crisis-management facility, the ROC is a cutting-edge surveillance and information mecca. And its team can see exactly what the Kurdish rebels are trying to do. But the terrorists are more resourceful than anyone thinks. They also have ways of obtaining classified information. And the Regional Op-Center is a prize not to be passed up.

Prolong the suspense: listen to more titles in Tom Clancy's Op-Center series.

Prescient

Although the Kurds have proven to be solid allies in the regional conflict, this book is ultimately spot on about terrorism and risks posed to America.

not possible

The writer needs to do more research. The way the vehicle was taken. Would not happen. Talk to a mechanic.

More Military Accuracy Needed

I've been putting up with the skewed rank system in these books for a while now however, it's getting annoying. 1st saying that this team somehow is better trained than Delta is ridiculous... Especially when the team is filled with privates. No special forces team has anything less than a sergeant.

Tired formula, but gripping in parts.

Really hoping subsequent books in the series revert to less far fetched ideas. Parts of this plot felt rushed an inconclusive

Rovin is getting better and so is Kramet

it took a bit to get into the story but after the first five chapters I was hooked. rolling needs to stop using words like modem modem modem you don't modem anything, you fax it or email it or text it. Romans or use of speech notwithstanding you certainly getting better. he's actually starting to throw some Tom Clancy surprises into his stories. I'll let you know after the next one in the series

Background is important!

This answers the question as to where the ops center came from, and how it fits into the jack Ryan Cherise.

Lots of killing. You expect it and it is. The story gets better at the end though..

good story

Mr. Kramer can ruin even the best of written books. It is a challenge to follow which character is saying what thanks in no small part to Mr. Kramers monotone voice and feeble attempts to give spice to his voice. My personal option is that Mr. Kramer's syle is poorly suited for this genre. I think he should do educational books.
