Synopsis:
After 15 years as a brilliant master spy, Nick Bryson has disappears into anonymity as a professor at an exclusive college in western Pennsylvania until he’s suddenly lured back into the game.
Recruited by the CIA, he’s been commissioned to track the moves of the Directorate. Once the ultra secret intelligence agency was Bryson’s training ground. Now it’s a multinational terrorist conspiracy bent on global domination.
But to eliminate the core of corruption means plunging into his own past, investigating the motives of a beautiful stranger who may be his greatest downfall, and infiltrating a secret nexus of power called Prometheus that holds the terrifying clues to his past and the even more terrifying possibilities of the future.
An ex-master spy turned professor must take down the shadowy group who made him in this espionage thriller by a #1 New York Times–bestselling author.
Nicholas Bryson spent years as a deep cover operative for the American secret intelligence group, the Directorate. After a critical undercover mission went horribly wrong, Bryson was retired to a new identity. Years later, his closely held cover is cracked, and Bryson learns that the Directorate was not what it claimed—that he was a pawn in a complex scheme against his own country’s interests.
Now, it has become increasingly clear that the shadowy Directorate is headed for some dangerous endgame—but no one knows precisely who they are and what they are planning. With Bryson their only possible asset, the director of the CIA recruits Bryson to find, reinfiltrate, and stop the Directorate. But after years on the sidelines, Bryson’s field skills are rusty, his contacts unreliable, and his instincts suspect.
With everything he thought he knew about his own life in question, Bryson is all alone in a wilderness of mirrors—unsure what is and isn’t true and who, if anyone, he can trust—with the future of millions in the balance . . .
Robert Ludlum is the acknowledged master of suspense and international intrigue. For over thirty years, in over twenty international bestsellers, he has set a standard that has never been equaled. Now, with the Prometheus Deception, he proves that he is at the very pinnacle of his craft
