IrishPenJen (United Kingdom) (2010/07/02):
Description:
It all starts with a cat-and-mouse chase to the death in a Baltimore funfair: the Jackal, Bourne's age-old antagonist, is back and Bourne is forced from his idyllic retirement with his wife and children to confront his enemy. In Europe, Russia and America there are men and women whose lust for power is disguised by their positions and respectability. Their aim: to gain control at the highest level, to avenge, to destroy. Jason Bourne has been the assassin before: now he longs for peace with his family, but the threat of the Jackal puts in jeopardy all possibility of peace ...What the papers say:
'Races ahead along a course as labyrinthine as any Mr Ludlum has created.' Daily Telegraph Author's biography:
Robert Ludlum launched his career as a bestselling writer with THE SCARLATTI INHERITANCE in 1971, the first of a string of International bestselers. There are more than 210 million copies of his books in print and they have been translated in 32 languages.
