Years before, he had been an English major at Baltimore's Loyola College and had always dreamed of writing a novel. His first effort, \u003ci\u003eThe Hunt for Red October\u003c\/i\u003e, sold briskly as a result of rave reviews, then catapulted onto the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller list after President Reagan pronounced it \"the perfect yarn.\" From that day forward, Clancy established himself as an undisputed master at blending exceptional realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense. He passed away in October 2013. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA native of Texas, \u003cb\u003eMarc Cameron\u003c\/b\u003e spent twenty-nine years in law enforcement.
