    Dead Or Alive by Tom Clancy (Grant Blackwood ghost writer assistant).

    (Is that 4 Beers or 2 Beers? I'm giving it 4)

    Decent Clancy book if you like his writing. A plausible plot with his usual twists and turns based on today's state of the world. 950 page hardback, so I couldn't finish it while flying back and forth to Oregon.
