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 of an Islamic cleric who is stirring up a rebellion against the Indian government. But when the border between India and Pakistan erupts, the Striker team gets caught in the crossfire. Now America's most proficient covert team is trapped in a fully-fledged war. Their fate rests in the hands of a devious double agent whose own agenda is unknown - a man who could just as easily sell them out as set them free...
Tom Clancy's Op-Center #11: Call to Treason
by Tom Clancy, Steve Pieczenik, and Jeff Rovin
The latest volume in the acclaimed series of high-tech, high-action thrillers.
In his position as head of Op-Centre – the National Crisis Management Centre in Washington – Paul Hood has handled emergencies around the world. Now he is facing a potential disaster much closer to home. For the US President – the man with the most demanding job in the world – is cracking up under the pressure.
Hood has also received disturbing reports about growing tension between Iran and the former Soviet republic of Azerbaijan over Caspian Sea oil. Alarmingly, it appears that someone with their own agenda within the US State Department is plotting to start a war by sending a secret team of agents to blow up a Caspian oil rig and laying the blame on the Iranians.
With the increasingly disoriented President sidelined, Hood must act fast. His only hope is to join forces with his counterpart in Russia’s own Op-Centre in a desperate attempt to avert the crisis in the Caspian – and to root out the rogue elements within the US Government who are threatening to bring down the President.
