    [synopsis] => From the acclaimed author of Top Hook and Hostile Contact, the fifth exhilarating tale of modern espionage and military adventure featuring US Navy intelligence officer Alan Craik — sure to appeal to the many fans of Tom Clancy and Dale Brown. Alan Craik and his US Navy battlegroup confront two new enemies: international, organized crime and a massive storm at sea. Alan is back on the aircraft carrier USS Thomas Jefferson, using the latest radar technology to monitor smuggling craft in the Indian Ocean between Pakistan and Somalia. As a break he is sent ashore to assess the port of Mombasa for a forthcoming liberty visit. While the battlegroup remains at sea because of a brewing storm, he arrives in Mombasa safely. But he is hardly on the beach when a US Navy support ship is blown up at the dockside. Chaos ensues, and further acts of violence. Soon — cut off from support by the storm at sea — Alan is charged with the task of tracking down the faceless people behind these apparently motiveless terrorist attacks.

• Packed with explosive action on land, in the air and at sea — from the drama of taking off from a storm-tossed carrier to the unpredictable danger of modern intelligence at the sharp end, Force Protection is a thriller of extraordinary pace and power — shot through with the authenticity that comes from personal experience.
• Published alongside the mass-market paperback of the previous Alan Craik thriller, Hostile Contact
• Combining the compelling plotting of Tom Clancy, the experience-based authenticity of John Nichol and the storytelling skills of Patrick Robinson, Gordon Kent is building a remarkable international reputation as a writer of thought-provoking, character-driven thrillers Competition: Tom Clancy;
