His name defines the international thriller. Now, Robert Ludlum presents his most suspenseful novel since The Bourne Identity—a complex story of a brilliant woman driven by revenge, supported by powerful shadowy forces, and the man tasked with stopping her. Amaya Bajaratt, beautiful and deadly, witnessed her parents' brutal murder as a child and vowed vengeance against authority. Following the death of her lover in a terrorist attack, she devises a bold plan to strike at the leaders of Israel, England, France, and the United States. The intelligence community turns to Tyrell Hawthorne, a former naval officer haunted by his wife’s murder during a spy game. He has since sought solace in sailing charters but is pulled back into the deadly world of espionage. As black funds move from Bahrain to an offshore bank, Bajaratt embarks on her violent mission, supported by the clandestine network known as the Scorpios, who manipulate events from the shadows. The key to this conspiracy lies on a Caribbean island, where Hawthorne's knowledge of the treacherous waters will be crucial. Racing from luxurious estates to the Oval Office, this high-voltage tale of intrigue propels the reader from the first page to a stunning conclusion.
