  • "Jack Ryan, Professor für Militärgeschichte und Ex-CIA-Agent, hält sich zu Recherchen in London auf. Als ahnungsloser Passant gerät er in einen Terroranschlag, den eine Splittergruppe der IRA auf die Familie des britischen Thronfolgers verübt. Ryan gelingt es zwar, den Anschlag zu vereiteln - doch von Stunde an sind er und seine Familie ihres Lebens nicht mehr sicher. In der Verfilmung mit Harrison Ford liessen sich tausende von Zuschauern von diesem spannenden Thriller fesseln. 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."
