Debt of Honor

I did not like this book written by Tom Clancy. After an accident involving two Japanese cars, Congress passes a law putting more restrictions on imports. A group of Japanese businessmen take control of Japan's military in order to seek revenge against the United States. They launch torpedoes and destroy two American submarines and damage two aircraft carriers. A group of investors forge a plot to upset the stock market. National Security Advisor Jack Ryan encourages the President to launch a counter-attack in order to disrupt the Japanese military.

The book gained popularity after the September 11th terrorist attacks, because of an airliner that crashes into the Capitol building.
