The Book ReporterInnan han blev författare var Tom Clancy en försäkringsmäklare med passion för marinhistoria. Han hade läst engelska vid Baltimores Loyola College, och drömmen om att skriva en bok hade han burit med sig sedan barnsben. Hans första roman, Jakten på Röd oktober, fick lysande recensioner och toppade New York Times bästsäljarlista efter att president Reagan beskrivit den som den perfekta historien. Sedan dess har Clancy etablerat sig som en omisskännlig mästare på att blanda autentisk realism med intrikata konspirationer och knivskarp spänning. Tom Clancy kallas ibland författaren som skapade den internationella thriller-genren. Flera av hans böcker har blivit storfilmer och han är en av ytterst få som sålt över två miljoner ex i en förstaupplaga. Med Rött hot är han tillbaka på toppen.
