C; I know I enjoy Clancy's writing; the problem I had with this book was my own fault.
I picked up an abridged version. There are WAY too many details in this style of book to be able to follow a shortened version (at least for me). I listened on a CD and even started over a few times to see if I wasn't concentrating. I found this abridgment to gloss over key plot points. I held on to the end but was left feeling unsatisfied.

I held on to the end but was left feeling unsatisfied. The ending seemed wrapped up a bit too neatly (again I blame the abridgment). The good side is this was the first I've read in the Ops Center Series. I could tell there were references to previous books but nothing that threw me (any more than what I've already mentioned). I am interested enough to pick up the series again (the full version, of course). Not sure how to classify this book. It's not a Tom Clancy techno-thriller like Hunt for Red October, even though Clancy is listed as an author.
It's not a political thriller like Vince Flynn or others like him. It's not a murder mystery like Robert Parker or James Patterson. It has all of the above but not enough.Worse, there is one recurring mistake that I doubt Clancy would have made.

Not even used for emergency VIP vehicle.The series seems to be running out of steam. I have been a fan of the Op-Center series for about a year. I have read two previous Rovin books without noticing the author's name, listed at the end of a string of sponsoring (read, money) names.This book really struck me because even though it was written in 2004, a lot of the material would be applicable in this the Trump era.

They have too few supporters and too many detractors. Simultaneously a murder investigation leads them to look into the individuals associated with a newly formed third party.This is a quick paced thriller that holds the readers’ interest, the quid pro quo bargaining forces individuals to make moral compromises some great and some small.
However, the finale of this book was a disappointment for me. There was insufficient clarification of the actions and motives of the guilty parties. I guess this murky view is typical of what you get from politics.
I was actually a bit disappointed with this one. I've read Op-Center, Acts of War, Games of State, and Mirror Image.

All of which had great espionage, tactical teams and weaponry, and detective work using high-tech gadgets and machinery. This one, zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Oh, sorry.:PThis book turned Op-Center into a metro police station-level of excitement, compared to what I was used to with these books.
I still have high hopes for the other novels in this series, though. I'm going to gath I was actually a bit disappointed with this one.

I still have high hopes for the other novels in this series, though. I'm going to gather that others, including Clancy himself, agree that this was a lackluster book as it is the only on audio CD available at the local regional library. To consign it to such a level must be saying something.
The other ones, I read the paperback versions.
