Product Description Jason Bourne tackles a global media conspiracy in the latest electrifying entry in Robert Ludlum s #1 New York Times bestselling series. Jason Bourne has faced many killers before, but none as dangerous or as cruelly inventive as the assassin who calls himself Lennon. Bourne thought he had Lennon cornered in Iceland, only to have the killer escape in a fiery explosion. Now Lennon s trail leads Bourne to New York and then to Washington – and the body count rises with each deadly encounter. But who is Lennon working for? Bourne believes the assassin has a shadowy new employer called the Pyramid. The only clue to the group s agenda is a young German woman murdered in Washington on her way to a covert meeting. But the woman s entire identity turns out to be a lie, and news reports of her death have been strangely twisted and suppressed. Finding the truth about this woman may be Bourne s only chance to catch Lennon – and uncover the conspiracy behind the Pyramid. But the chase comes with high stakes. Bourne s former lover, journalist Abbey Laurent, is digging into the mystery too, and Jason s perilous battle against Lennon and the Pyramid will soon put Abbey in the assassin s crosshairs. Bourne will need to use every bit of his tradecraft and his genius for mayhem to expose this web of lies and murder before Lennon kills the woman he loves. Review Colorful characters and solid plotting continue to make this series a pleasure. Kirkus Reviews Exciting action scenes, the untangling of the Pyramid mystery, Bourne s fighting skills, and the enduring conundrum of his lost past keep the pages turning.

A bitter wind blew across the lava fields, and slate gray clouds clung to the dark tips of the mountains. With his Swarovski binoculars, he zoomed in on the twin white buildings of the oceanfront hotel below him. There were no other structures around for miles, just the simple black church and the elegant hotel amid the landscape of strangely sculpted volcanic stone. The only sounds were the fierce whistle of the wind and the thunder of waves crashing from the Atlantic onto the shell beach. Hed watched the men of the protection detail arriving separately over the past hour. Theyd staked out different locations around the hotel, blending like locals into the remote Icelandic countryside. They were obviously waiting for someone. If Bourne was right, that meant that the assassin known as Lennon would be arriving soon. There were five killers serving as Lennons advance team. One was a man in overalls whod parked his truck off the shoulder of the single lonely road that led to the coast. Hed opened the hood and was pretending to tinker with the engine. Two others shared pints of beer at a picnic table behind the hotel and joked with each other in loud voices. Another was just a speck of camouflage in the distance, but Bourne had spotted him stretched out in the wavy grass of the lava field, with the scope of a long gun trained on the h
