Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan Books 7-12 - Plot & Excerpts
Ryan said to his Secretary of the Treasury, George Winston.“Mr. Pres—”“Goddammit, George!” The President nearly spilled his coffee with the outburst.“Okay.” SecTreas nodded submission. “It’s hard to make the adjustment ... Jack.” Ryan was getting tired of the Presidential trappings, and his rule was that here, in the Oval Office, his name was Jack, at least for his inner circle, of which Winston was one. After all, Ryan had joked a few times, after leaving this marble prison, he might be working for TRADER, as the Secret Service knew him, back in New York on The Street, instead of the other way ’round. After leaving the Presidency, something for which Jack prostrated himself before God every night—or so the stories went—he’d have to find gainful employment somewhere, and the trading business beckoned. Ryan had shown a rare gift for it, Winston reminded himself. His last such effort had been a California company called Silicon Alchemy, just one of many computer outfits, but the only one in which Ryan had taken an interest.
