A note for parents

Clear and Present Danger is a sophisticated political thriller centered on CIA operations against Colombian drug lords, featuring espionage, combat scenes, and assassination. While the violence and mature themes are significant, they serve the plot rather than glorify harm, and the story emphasizes professional competence and moral reasoning. This is best suited for older teens and adults comfortable with geopolitical complexity and realistic depictions of covert operations.

From the publisher

The sudden and surprising assassination of three American officials in Colombia. Many people in many places, moving off on missions they all mistakenly thought they understood. The future was too fearful for contemplation, and beyond the expected finish lines were things that, once decided, were better left unseen.
