Oberflächlich betrachtet ist es ein simpler Fall: Ein Priester ist von afrikanischen Milizen entführt worden. Alle Missionare, so die Forderung, sollen Botswana verlassen. Doch die Drahtzieher der Tat sitzen in Europa . . . Deep down, a complex case: a priest is kidnapped by African militia, and missionaries are told to leave Botswana - all orchestrated from Europe.
The Ops-Center team faces untold chaos on a mission in Africa in the ninth novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series created by Tom Clancy and former Department of State official Steve Pieczenik.
On the surface it seems a simple case: a group of African militiamen have kidnapped a priest and ordered all Catholic missionaries to leave the nation of Botswana. But the Vatican thinks otherwise. At its urging, Op-Center investigates-and finds out that the real purpose of the crime is a plan by outside forces to destabilize the government and seize the nation's diamond mines. With its military team, Striker, out of commission, Op-Center must reinvent itself-and head straight into the crossfire of an African war.
