THE EXPERT ASSASSIN IS BACK IN THIS NON-STOP ACTION HIT A THRILLER THAT NEVER LETS UP.

Readers were first introduced to Jason Bourne's nemesis Leonid Arkadin, a brilliant Russian assassin and fearless international mercenary, in THE BOURNE SANCTION. His girlfriend was killed during a fight for which an enraged Arkadin blames Bourne. In The BOURNE DECEPTION, Arkadin hunted Bourne to take revenge and kill him. Bourne, in a fight for his life, learned that Arkadin's skills mirror Jason's because he received the same original CIA Treadstone training. Now, in THE BOURNE OBJECTIVE, Jason will turn the tables and target Arkadin. Hunter will become hunted. But revenge can cause great psychological devastation. Has this become too personal for Bourne? Will this hunt be Bourne's downfall?

Jason Bourne's nemesis Arkadin is still hot on his trail and the two continue their struggle, reversing roles of hunter and hunted. When Bourne is ambushed and badly wounded, he fakes his death and goes into hiding. In safety, he takes on a new identity, and begins a mission to find out who tried to assassinate him. Jason begins to question who he really is, how much of him is tied up in the Bourne identity, and what he would become if that was suddenly taken away from him. Meanwhile, an American passenger airliner is shot down over Egypt by what seems to be an Iranian missile. A massive global investigative team is assembled to get at the truth of the situation before it can escalate into an international scandal. Jason Bourne's search for the man who shot him intersects with the search for the people that brought down the airliner, leading Bourne into one of the most deadly and challenging situations he has ever encountered. With the threat of a new world war brewing, Bourne finds himself in a race against time to uncover the truth and find the person behind his assault, all the while being stalked by his unknown nemesis.

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.

A document that alters the course of history is searched for.

Lt. Col. Jon Smith is activated by Covert-One to find and uncover the truth about Lazarus where all others have failed. As Smith slowly uncovers the deadly underpinnings of the group, he soon learns that the Lazarus Movement is only the very tip of the iceberg in a deadly scheme that threatens billions of lives and will forever change the nature of the world itself.

But before Smith can get the document, he is ambushed, the second agent is murdered, and the evidence is destroyed. Smith escapes with only his life and a verbal message - the President's biological father is still alive, held prisoner by the Chinese for fifty years. As the mysterious ship draws closer to its end port, Smith is losing time in uncovering the truth about the vessel and its cargo - a truth that probes the secrets of the Chinese ruling party, a faction in Washington working to undermine the elected government, and an international cabal thursting the world to the brink of war ..

Parallel dazu wird die Geschichte von Amaya Bajaratt erzählt, die als Kind miterleben muss, wie ihre baskische Familie brutal ermordet wird. Getrieben von dem Wunsch nach Rache an der Obrigkeit, perfektioniert sie das Handwerk des Terrorismus und plant einen Feldzug gegen die Mächtigen der politischen Welt. Die Geheimdienste sind ratlos und rufen den eiskalt agierenden Spitzenagenten Tyrell Hawthorne zur Hilfe. Wird es ihm gelingen, Amaya und ihre Komplizen zu stoppen?

While assessing the military potential of a new intelligence device, Covert-One's Colonel Jon Smith realizes the technology must never fall into the hands of America's enemies

Actionreiche Hochspannung – der neue Bourne! Vor der schwedischen Küste zieht Jason Bourne einen Bewusstlosen aus dem Meer. Der Mann hat jegliche Erinnerung an sein Leben verloren – eine unheimliche Parallele zu Bournes eigenem Schicksal. Die Lösung scheint in einem geheimen Mossad-Lager im Libanon zu liegen, wo Bourne sich zuvor versteckt hatte. Dort erkennt er einen zerstörerischen Plan, der nicht nur sein Leben, sondern die Sicherheit der Welt bedrohen könnte. Als der mysteriöse Mann, dem Bourne das Leben gerettet hat, das Bewusstsein wiedererlangt, greift er Bourne an und flüchtet. Rebekka, eine befreundete Mossad-Agentin, ist ebenfalls hinter dem Mann her, was das Rätsel noch komplizierter macht. In dem Mossad-Lager im Libanon finden sie eine erste Spur, die sie nach Mexiko führt. Dort entdecken Bourne und Rebekka den Flüchtigen im Haus eines mexikanischen Software-Magnaten. Sie machen eine schreckliche Entdeckung: Eine gefährliche Technologie steht kurz vor dem Abschluss und könnte in den falschen Händen verheerende Folgen haben. Die Spur des Komplotts reicht von Mexiko bis China und zu einem Energiekonzern, der bereit ist, über Leichen zu gehen, um den Markt zu dominieren. Bourne ist fest entschlossen, dem Treiben ein Ende zu setzen und stellt sich den dunklen Mächten entgegen, koste es, was es wolle.

Tel un Phénix renaissant de ses cendres, l'ombre des Matarèse plane de nouveau sur le monde. Leur but ultime : la domination économique de la planète... et ils sont prêts à tout pour arriver à leurs fins. L'agent Cameron Pryce de la CIA est le seul homme capable d'empêcher le retour, dans toute sa gloire démoniaque, de la Maison Matarèse. Mais il risque d'être pris de vitesse, car le compte à rebours a déjà commencé. A Long Island, Monte-Carlo ou Belgravia Square à Londres, les envoyés des Matarèse ont déjà frappé avec une efficacité redoutable, éliminant tous ceux qui risquaient de se dresser en travers de leur chemin. Mais sur la Costa del Sol, une victime a murmuré, dans un dernier souffle, le nom de code d'un agent à la retraite, Brandon Scofield. Celui-ci a pénétré les défenses des Matarèse et en est ressorti vivant, d'où sa renommée légendaire. Aujourd'hui, comment convaincre Scofield et sa femme, Antonia, d'abandonner leur paradis des Caraïbes pour les entraîner là où ils ne pensaient jamais remettre les pieds : dans le cercle funeste des Matarèse ? Des champs de pétrole du Golfe Persique aux conseils d'administration de Manhattan, des collines pelées de Corse aux bastions du pouvoir à Washington, le cercle se referme, et la panique gagne du terrain. Car Pryce vient de découvrir que les Matarèse ont annexé de nouvelles terres... au cœur même de la CIA.

Jason Bourne is nagezeten door machtige regeringen - en wist te ontsnappen. Opgejaagd door de meest ervaren moordenaars in de wereld - en was ze te slim af. Doelwit van terroristen - en verstoorde hun plannen voor wereldwijde chaos. Nu wil Bourne maar één ding: wraak. Bournes vriend Eli Yadin, hoofd van de Mossad, leert dat Ouyang Jidan, een voornaam lid van het Politbureau van China, en een grote Mexicaanse drugsbaron, mogelijk handelen in iets dat veel dodelijker is dan drugs. Yadin overtuigt Bourne op onderzoek uit te gaan. Bourne gaat akkoord, maar alleen omdat hij een persoonlijke agenda heeft: Ouyang Jidan is de man die Rebeka - een van de weinige mensen om wie Bourne ooit echt gaf - liet vermoorden. Bourne is vastbesloten om haar dood te wreken, maar gaandeweg raakt hij verstrikt in een monsterlijk, wereldwijd complot waarbij de Chinezen, Mexicanen en Russen betrokken zijn. Bourne komt steeds dichter bij het wreken van de vrouw van wie hij hield, maar ook steeds dichter bij zijn eigen dood...
