Clear and Present Danger Watch Free

A United States Coast Guard vessel intercepts and boards an American yacht in the Caribbean Sea. Evidence indicates the ship’s owner and passengers, American businessman Peter Hardin and his family, were murdered by the occupying Colombian crew. CIA analyst Jack Ryan learns that Hardin was laundering money for the South American Cali Cartel. Drug lord Ernesto Escobedo ordered Hardin’s murder for embezzling millions in drug profits. U.S. President Bennett, Hardin’s close friend, discreetly authorizes National Security Advisor James Cutter to initiate covert operations in Colombia to destroy the cartel.

Ryan’s New Role and Covert Operations

Ryan is appointed acting Deputy Director of Intelligence when Admiral James Greer undergoes treatment for pancreatic cancer. Ryan requests Congress increase funding to support Colombians fighting the drug cartels, giving his assurance there is no U.S. military involvement. Ryan is unaware that Cutter will use the funds to assemble RECIPROCITY, a special forces team recruited by CIA operative John Clark, and aided by Robert Ritter, the CIA Deputy Director of Operations. President Bennett sends Ryan to negotiate with the Colombian government to allow the United States to seize Escobedo’s assets, including $650 million hidden in off-shore accounts. Escobedo’s intelligence officer, Colonel Félix Cortez, secretly orders the Cartel to ambush Ryan’s convoy. Ryan survives, though several colleagues are killed, including Dan Murray and FBI Director Emile Jacobs. Cortez’s identity is ascertained after he murders Jacobs’ secretary, Moira, who was an unwitting informant.

The Confrontation and Deception

Escobedo, blamed for the attack, organizes a meeting with the other Cartel heads. RECIPROCITY discovers this and launches an airstrike on the meeting location. Escobedo and Cortez, en route to the gathering, barely escape unscathed. Cortez learns Americans were responsible and brokers a deal with Cutter: Cortez will kill Escobedo to assume leadership, then will reduce drug shipments to the U.S. and allow American law enforcement to make regular arrests to influence public opinion that the United States is winning the drug war. In exchange, Cortez wants the location of RECIPROCITY and all CIA support eliminated to establish his position within the Cartel. Cutter accepts Cortez’s deal, then strands Clark’s team, who are overwhelmed by Cortez’s mercenaries in the jungle.

The Final Showdown

Unbeknownst to Cutter, U.S. surveillance monitored his conversation with Cortez. Ryan accesses Ritter’s computer and obtains evidence regarding the illegal Colombian operations. Ritter, however, warns Ryan that because he obtained funding for the operation, Congress will hold Ryan solely responsible, whereas Ritter and Cutter have been granted President Bennett’s pre-emptive pardons from any wrongdoing. After Greer’s funeral, Ryan flies to Bogota to seek out Clark, unaware Cutter and Ritter have falsely told Clark that Ryan betrayed RECIPROCITY. Ryan and Clark team up after Clark realizes Ritter and Cutter deceived them both.

Ryan and Clark procure a helicopter and fly to RECIPROCITY’s last known position. They find team sniper Chavez, who reports that most members were killed; Captain Ramirez and one remaining squad member were captured. Ryan meets with Escobedo and informs him of Cortez’s deception, while Clark simultaneously commences rescuing his men who are being held captive in a coffee facility fronting Escobedo’s cocaine operation. Escobedo confronts Cortez but is killed by Cortez’s associate. Ryan narrowly escapes with Clark and the freed prisoners. Chavez kills Cortez during the escape, saving Ryan. Back in the United States, Ryan confronts President Bennett and refuses to help cover up the conspiracy. He testifies before the Congressional Oversight Committee about the recent events.
