Product Description
Created by Tom Clancy and Martin H. Greenberg, the Power Plays series made a fetish of fast-paced narrative and larger-than-life heroes. You can't get much larger-than-life than Clancy's Power Plays hero Roger Gordian, a strong but tender giant of a man whose warfare usually involves business and the executive halls of corporate piracy - and his belief in playing fair-and-square, and keeping America number one.
In the future, keeping secrets will be the final frontier of power - information brokering will be the gold, and a brilliant and resilient human mind will be the best tool for mining that ore.
It's the year 2000, and the pirates of the new future not only deal in computer chips and stock trading, but also in human life. When a Chinese freighter called Kuan Yin departs Malaysia with a cargo of spices and oils meant for trading in Singapore, the crew on board has no idea what doom will soon befall them. Shortly after setting sail, a renegade bunch of brigands boards the ship, and soon the smell of death and destruction permeates the sea around it. Now, the vessel and its precious cargo are under pirate control.....
