#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
At a small-town carnival, two men, each mysteriously summoned by
telegram, witness a bizarre killing. The telegrams are signed "Jason
Bourne." Only they know Bourne's true identity and understand that the
telegrams are really a message from Bourne's mortal enemy, Carlos, known
also as the Jackal, the world's deadliest and most elusive terrorist.
And furthermore, they know what the Jackal wants: a final confrontation
with Bourne. Now David Webb, professor of Oriental studies, husband, and
father, must do what he hoped never to do again--assume the terrible
identity of Jason Bourne. His plan is simple: to infiltrate the
politically and economically omnipotent Medusan group and use himself as
bait to lure the cunning Jackal into a deadly trap--a trap from which
only one of them will escape.
