The Bear and the Dragon: Part 2 of 3

Jack Ryan has just taken office as President of the United States, and the demands of domestic politics press on him at every turn. Abroad, a rocket-propelled grenade has been fired at the head of Russia's foreign intelligence service in Moscow, and investigators are trying to work out who was responsible. Was it a rival faction, a criminal group, or a former officer of the old KGB? Ryan suspects the answer may be something far more dangerous. While the Russians pursue their inquiry, a bold scheme is taking shape in China, one whose ambition could reshape the world.
