Jason Bourne returns in this stunning new thriller from Eric Van Lustbader, continuing Robert Ludlum's classic series.
General Boris Karpov, head of the feared Russian FSB, is dead. But Karpov has reached out from the grave with an unstoppable cyber operation he conceived before his murder, aimed at the heart of the United States—a way to steal the president's nuclear launch codes. Who has taken over the operation? Karpov trusted only one man: Jason Bourne. But can Bourne be working against his own country? The U.S. Government is convinced of his treason, and is doing everything in its power to kill him. Flushed from cover and gravely wounded, Bourne's only hope is to join forces with his bitterest enemy: a powerful Somali terrorist named Keyre, and his protoge, the Angelmaker. If he hopes to survive, Bourne has no choice but unravel the mystery of Karpov's last legacy—a weaponized code that may bring about the unthinkable: a violent end to America.

      The prize at the center of Lustbader’s outlandish 11th entry in the late Robert Ludlum’s Bourne franchise (after 2016’s The Bourne Enigma) is a weaponized computer program developed by the late Gen. Boris Karpov, of the Russian FSB, to penetrate American defenses and gain access to the U.S. president’s nuclear codes. Since Jason Bourne, who was Karpov’s best friend, is believed to hold the key to that program, he’s sought by many powerful, dangerous people, including Somali overlord Keyre; Mala Ilves (aka the Angelmaker), a deadly killer trained by Keyre; and Gora Maslov, the head of the Russian mafia family that rules Moscow. Many characters are maimed, tortured, and killed, but Bourne, though beaten and battered by his foes, is not bested as he’s led and misled on a journey that takes him from the Aegean to Russia, Africa, the U.S., and back to Russia. No one is what they seem, and the endless deceptions reliably lead to the extravagant action scenes that are Lustbader’s hallmark. Series fans will eagerly await Bourne’s next adventure.
