Synopsis

After an intelligence failure at Op-Center results in a major terrorist attack, director Chase Williams radically transforms the agency into a ground-breaking new mobile strike force.

It’s a beautiful day in Manhattan as excited tourists board the floating Air and Space Museum on the USS Intrepid—until a horrible explosion rips across the flight deck, showering the body parts of innocent people everywhere. The perpetrator is none other than Captain Ahmed Salehi, an Iranian mastermind whose last terrorism plot was foiled at the last minute by Op-Center.

Back in Washington, the White House orders Op-Center disbanded—or so it seems. Unbeknownst to America’s enemies, director Chase Williams has been put in charge of a brand-new, top-secret covert attack team known only as BLACK WASP. Its members, each chosen for their unique set of specialized black-ops skills—martial arts expert Lieutenant Grace Lee, sharpshooter Lance Corporal Jaz Rivette, and JAG attorney and criminologist Major Hamilton Breen—have been assigned to seek out Salehi and finally bring him to justice.

But Salehi is part of an even more frightening conspiracy, led by a renegade Iranian tycoon determined to establish a new Islamic State that will dwarf the horrors of ISIS. From the heart of Manhattan, to the swamps of Trinidad, to the sunbaked mud villages of Yemen, this new Op-Center is America’s only line of defense against a bloody Middle Eastern tyrant.

4* Highly entertaining and fast paced special ops jaunt I really enjoyed this book. It wasn't overly big (330 pages) and I smashed it out in a couple of days once I really got into it.

Goodreads review by Dan on July 31, 2019

I was a bit disappointed in this particular novel. I have loved the Op-Center books but this one just seemed lacking. We have a terrorist event that gets the present Op-Center torn apart for lack of stopping the event before it happens. The head of Op-Center is unceremoniously dismissed, or is he? He......more

Goodreads review by Jock on October 04, 2021

A typical exciting Tom Clancy novel takes you on an exciting ride. An Iranian (Salehi) orchestrates setting off a bomb on the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier which is now a tourist attraction in NY harbor. A chemical turns into a fireball that incinerates the closest people and badly burns many more.......more
