Razio Yamata is one of Japan's most influential industrialists, and part of a
relatively small group of authority who wield tremendous authority in the Pacific Rim's
economic powerhouse.
He has devised a plan to cripple the American greatness, humble the US military, and
elevate Japan to a position of dominance on the world stage.
Yamata's motivation lies in his desire to pay off a Debt of Honor to his
parents and to the country he feels is responsible for their deaths -- America. All he needs
is a catalyst to set his plan in motion.
When the faulty gas tank on one Tennessee family's car leads to their fiery death, an
opportunistic U. S. congressman uses the occasion to rush a new trade law through the
system. The law is designed to squeeze Japan economically. Instead, it provides Yamata
with the leverage he needs to put his plan into action.
As Yamata's plan begins to unfold, it becomes clear to the world that someone is
launching a fully-integrated operation against the United States. There's only one man to
find out who the culprit is -- Jack Ryan, the new President's National Security Advisor.
