NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"First-rate suspense."--People
Twenty years ago, top agents from the CIA and KGB banded together to
bring down the Matarese Circle, an international cabal of power brokers
and assassins whose sole objective was to achieve worldwide economic
domination. Now the bloody Matarese dynasty is back--and the only man
with the power to stop it may have already run out of time.
CIA case officer Cameron Pryce is hot on the trail of the new Matarese
alliance. His only chance to terminate its ruthless activities is to
follow the trail of blood money and stone-cold killers right to the
heart of its deadly conspiracy. From the Hamptons to London's Belgrave
Square, Matarese assassins have already struck with brutal efficiency,
eliminating all who stand in their way. Their chain of violence is
impossible to stop--until Pryce gets a rare break. One of the Matarese's
victims survives long enough to whisper dying words that will blow the
case wide open: the top secret code name for legendary retired CIA agent
Brandon Scofield--the only man who has ever infiltrated the Matarese
inner circle and lived to tell about it.
"Welcome to Robert Ludlum's world . . . fast pacing, tight plotting,
