Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Surviving a helicopter crash in the Vietnamese Highlands is only the start of the challenges facing Jack Ryan, Jr., in the latest propulsive thriller of this #1 N ew York Times bestselling series.
The vibrant economy of the new Vietnam is a shiny lure for Western capital. Companies are racing to uncover ideal opportunities. Not wanting to be left behind, Hendley Associates has sent their best analyst, Jack Ryan, Jr., to mine for investment gold. And he may have found some in a rare earth mining company--GeoTech.
But a trip with a Hendley colleague to the Highlands to observe the company's operations takes a treacherous turn when their helicopter is shot down. Some things haven't changed, and Vietnam is still the plaything of powerful neighbors. The Chinese are determined to keep Jack from finding the truth about what exactly is being processed at the isolated factory.
Now Jack is in a race for his life. He's got to stay one step ahead of a pack of killers while supporting his wounded friend. He'll get no help from the government, because in the jungle, it's the shadow state that rules.
"Jack Ryan, Jr. finds himself cut off from his comrades at The Campus just when he needs them most. He's smack dab in the middle of an international conspiracy, and this may be too much for even him to handle"--
