He's the sales blurb for Tom Clancy's new book: Ruthless.com
A new novel from one of the bestselling
authors in the world, Ruthless.com is a
potent blend of international power politics,
intrigue, and cutting-edge military high-tech.
When the President of the USA bows to
commercial pressure to deregulate computer
encryption code, he paves the way for
potential disaster as terrorists have possible
access to the national defence computers and
the security of the country is seriously
undermined. Sure enough, an armed nuclear
submarine becomes the target of a powerful
terrorist group who plan to hijack it and
demand the largest ransom in history. Roger
Gordian, CEO of America's largest computer
company, understands the danger and has the
resources to act against them before it's too
late.
