Thriller Novels by Robert Ludlum 9 Books Set (Bourne Series Author)

Author of Bourne Series- Robert Ludlum 9 Books set is action packed crime mystery thriller collection. Following you can get overview of each book:

The Cry of the Halidon

A geologist is paid to survey Jamaica by a secret cabal of financiers that wants to take over the island and create their own country. MI-5 enlists him to get to the bottom of the plot.

The Rhineman Exchange

“The man from Lisbon” is used as a go between during World War II with an exchange between the US and Nazi Germany. He wasn’t told all the details, especially that he was going to be left as the fall guy, so this story is about the adventures surrounding his discoveries. David Spaulding is first sent to New York and then Bueno Aires on a mission of deceit. The problem is much of the deceit is directed towards him. Slowly and methodically the man from Lisbon unravels the layers of lies to discover the unbelievable and unsavory truth.

The Road to Gandolfo

Gandolfo is Ludlum at his least serious (it was originally published under a psuedonym). General Mac Hawkins is unceremoniously, though deservingly, booted out of the army for extremely rude behavior. With the unwilling help of his military attorney Sam Devereaux, Hawkins hatches a plot to kidnap the Pope and extract a ransom from the Catholic church. Mac has the help of his four ex-wives, who have a knack for showing up in exactly the right place at exactly the right time.

The Tristan Betrayal

The Tristan Betrayal is shockingly a very interesting book to read. Kinda has the old Ludlum flair of the Bourne and Matarese mixed in. Although sadly Ludlum never finished the story, the story at the beginning is pure Ludlum, with the end showing the loopholes of a less creative mind. The story starts with Stephen Metcalfe receiving word from a woman he thought had forgotten him. The love of his life at a time when the Cold War was at its peak. Stephen is the youngest son of a prominent American family who is invited to all diplomatic functions. Seeing his well placed connections, his charms and his smartness, the CIA hires him as their spy. In the course of his mission he falls in love with the Russian contact who later allegedly betrays him. The intricacy of the story leaves behind the spy world in this book. The attraction, the love, the very essence of loyalty is questioned on both ends. A compelling read for those who loved the olden ways.

The Matarese Countdown

Brandon Scofield is dragged out of self-imposed exile on some Caribbean island to once again foil the rising phoenix of the Matarese inheritance. As I’ve said, I was rather disappointed with the narrative events of this sequel. Circle was fraught with narrative dead ends and ‘how can he survive this’ while Countdown just happened, scripting by numbers.

The Road to Omaha

Discovering a long-buried 1878 treaty with an obscure Indian tribe, the Hawk — a.k.a. Chief Thunder Head — hatches a brilliant plot that will ultimately bring him and his reluctant lawyer Sam before the Supreme Court. Their goal: to reclaim a choice piece of American real estate — the state of Nebraska. Which just happens to be the headquarters of the U.S. Strategic Air Command?

Will they succeed against the powers that be? Will the Wopotami tribe ever have their day in the Supreme Court? From the Oval Office to the Pentagon, all the president’s men are outwitted, until it rests with CIA Director Vincent “Vinnie the Bam-Bam” Mangecavallo to cut Sam and Hawk off at the pass.

The Chancellor Manuscript

Did J. Edgar die a natural death?…or was he murdered?

Inver Brass—a group of high-minded and high-placed intellectuals who see a monstrous threat to the country in Hoover’s unethical use of his scandal-ridden private files. They decide to do away with him—quietly, efficiently, with no hint of impropriety. Until best-selling thriller writer Peter Chancellor stumbles onto information that makes his precious books like harmless fairy tales. Now Chancellor and Inver Brass are on a deadly collision course, spiraling across the globe in an ever-widening arc of violence and terror. Hurtling toward a showdown that will rip Washington’s intelligence community apart—leaving only one damning document to survive.

The Scarlatti Inheritance

In Washington, word is received that an elite member of the Nazi High Command is willing to
defect and divulge information that will shorten the war. But his defection entails the release of the ultra-top-secret file on the Scarlatti Inheritance – a file whose contents will destroy many of the Western world’s greatest and most illustrious reputations if they are made known… THE SCARLATTI INHERITANCE is a spellbinding story of international terror and intrigue, greed and cunning, uspense and murder.

The Apocalypse Watch

After three years deep under cover, US agent Harry Latham has penetrated the fortress-like mountain hideaway of the Brotherhood of the Watch, a neo-Nazi organisation born after the fall of the Third Reich. Then, on the eve of his most spectacular success, Harry disappears. Drew Latham, a Consular Operations officer at the American Embassy in Paris, is frantic to discover his older brother’s fate. But when he receives the good news that Harry has surfaced, serious doubts arise. Has Harry’s cover been blown? And if so, why has the Brotherhood of the Watch let him live? Can Drew trust his brother? The search for the truth about Harry plunges Drew into a labyrinth of deceit and death. And whoever gets out alive holds the fate of the free world in his hands.
