Tom Clancy's Op-Centre

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-Centre investigates – and finds 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-Centre must reinvent itself – and head straight into the crossfire of an African war.A powerful profile of America's defence, intelligence and crisis management technology, Tom Clancy's Op-Centre is the creation of Tom Clancy and Steve Pieczenik – inspiring this and other gripping novels.
