CLANCY, TOM - Red Rabbit Author Signed

Title: Red Rabbit Author Signed
Description: Putnam Adult, 2002. First Edition. Hardcover. ISBN: 0399148701. First edition, full number line. Book and dust look new. Dust Jacket now in Mylar Protective Cover."Red Rabbit is a spy thriller novel, written by Tom Clancy and released on August 5, 2002. The plot occurs a few months after the events of Patriot Games (1987), and incorporates the 1981 assassination attempt on Pope John Paul II." Main character Jack Ryan, now an analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency, takes part in the extraction of a Soviet defector who knows of a KGB plot to kill the pontiff. Long before he was President or head of the CIA, before he fought terrorist attacks on the Super Bowl or the White House, even before a submarine named Red October made its perilous way across the Atlantic, Jack Ryan was an historian, teacher, and recent ex-Marine temporarily living in England while researching a book. A series of deadly encounters with an IRA splinter group had brought him to the attention of the CIA's Deputy Director, Vice Admiral James Greer—as well as his counterpart with the British SIS, Sir Basil Charleston—and when Greer asked him if he wanted to come aboard as a freelance analyst, Jack was quick to accept. The opportunity was irresistible, and he was sure he could fit it in with the rest of his work. "Red Rabbit takes elements from Frederick Forsyth’s thriller novel The Day of the Jackal (1973), although the assassin “is never so fully realized nor as sympathetic as the Jackal”. Additionally in the novel, Clancy discusses the tradecraft of espionage, as well as life in Moscow before the fall of Communism."Wikipedia Our photo's/scans are of the actual item being sold, not a borrowed image!
