Bearing all the hallmarks of classic Tom Clancy, this new Op Centre novel serves up another dose of international intrigue and nail-biting action when the team are called on to combat a new threat to the safety and security of the free world.

The eighth volume in the fast-selling series of high-tech, high-action thrillers centred on Washington's National Crisis Management Centre. The National Crisis Management Centre in Washington DC - otherwise known as the Op-Centre - is a beating heart of defence, intelligence and crisis management technology, run by a crack team of operatives. When world peace is threatened by an international crisis that seems beyond the scope of normal forces, it is the one place the US government can turn. This time, it's a mission that only Striker - the military arm of Op-Centre - can handle: the capture ...

On the surface it seems a simple case: a group of African militiamen have kidnapped a priest and ordered all Catholic missionaries to leave the nation of Botswana. But the Vatican thinks otherwise. At its urging, Op-Centre investigates - and finds that the real purpose of the crime is a plan by outside forces to destabilize the government and seize the nation's diamond mines. With its military team, Striker, out of commission, Op-Centre must reinvent itself - and head straight into the crossfire of an African war.

Una plaga de murciélagos asesinos invade Manhattan. Las escenas de terror se suceden y cunde el pánico en la ciudad. Por lo visto, todo es fruto de una extraña mutación. Una novela terrorífica que plante una pregunta mas que inquietante: ¿que ocurriria en las grandes ciudades si de pronto se ven arrasadas por un peligro que nadie ha sabido prever?
