About the Book

Nobel laureate, international financier, and philanthropist Peter Novak-a billionaire who has committed his life and fortune to fostering democracy around the world through his Liberty Foundation-has been kidnapped. The terrorist known as The Caliph is holding Novak in a near-impenetrable fortress and has refused to negotiate for his release, planning instead to brutally execute his hostage in a matter of days... Running out of time and hope, Novak's people turn to a man with a long history of defeating impossible odds: Paul Janson-a legend in the notorious U.S. covert agency Consular Operations. Janson sets in motion an ingenious rescue operation. But the operation goes horribly wrong and Janson is marked for death, the target of a "beyond salvage" order issued from the highest level of the government. Now Janson is running for his life, pursued by Jessica Kincaid, a young agent of astonishing ability who can anticipate and counter his every move. To survive, Janson must outrace a conspiracy that has gone beyond the control of its originators. To win, he must counter it with a conspiracy of his own...

Robert Ludlum was the author of 25 thriller novels, including "The Bourne Identity," "The Bourne Supremacy" and "The Bourne Ultimatum"--the books on which the international hit movies were based--and The Sigma Protocol. He was also the creator of the Covert-One series. Born in New York City, Ludlum received a B.A. from Wesleyan University, and before becoming an author, he was a United States Marine, a theater actor and producer.

Review :
"Ludlum's best since his masterpiece "The Bourne Identity."" -"Kirkus Reviews" "Finely crafted...The novel's action scenes are as thrilingly staged on the page as they'll inevitably be on the big screen." -"Entertainment Weekly" "One heck of a thriller...loaded with all the intrigue, paranoia, and real-life parallels that made Ludlum famous." -"People " "Ludlum stuffs more surprises into his novels than any other six-pack of thriller writers combined."-"The New York Times" "Ludlum pulls out all the stops, and dazzles his readers."-"Chicago Tribune" "Packed with all the classic Ludlum elements...the intricately engineered plot thunders forward at breakneck pace. Bottom Line: Perfectly executed."-"People" "Robert Ludlum continues to jolt his readers with fresh juice...a page-turner of non-stop action that should leave his fans begging for more."-"New York Post " "Welcome to Robert Ludlum's world...fast pacing, tight plotting, international intrigue." -"Cleveland Plain Dealer" "Dazzling...a clean launch of the 80's spy novel into a thrilling action/adventure web of intrigue mean for the twenty-first century."-"Publishers Weekly " "Reading a Ludlum novel is like watching a James Bond film...slickly paced...all consuming." -"Entertainment Weekly" "Ludlum in light years-beyond his literary competition in piling plot twist upon plot twist, until the mesmerized reader is held captive...He dominates the field in strong, tightly plotted, action-drenched thrillers."-"Chicago Tribune" "Readers will remain in the dark right up until the explosive climax."-"The San Francisco Chronicle" 0"Gripping...Robust writing and a breakneck pace."-"Boston Herald" "Don't ever begin a Ludlum novel if you have to go to work the next day."--"Chicago Sun-Times"
