The Matarese Circle, Robert Ludlum's bestselling spellbinder, introduced a treacherous international cabal of powerbrokers and their hired assassins.  Now the unsurpassed master of suspense returns with a stunning thriller for the twenty-first century. . . and like a phoenix from the ashes, the terror has returned with. . . The Matarese Countdown.

Secret deals are in the making, massive mysterious transactions steeped in corruption and murder.  The players stand at the highest pinnacles of global finance and government.  It is an unprecedented consolidation of money, power, and ruthlessness.  Their ultimate aim: worldwide economic domination and all it entails. . . by whatever means necessary.

The Matarese dynasty is back in all its glory and evil.  And the one man with enough knowledge to stop it, CIA case officer Cameron Pryce, may not have enough time.  The Matarese countdown has begun and Pryce's only chance to cut it off is to follow the trail of blood money and stone-cold killers to the heart of this deadliest conspiracy.

The Matarese Countdown is Robert Ludlum at his best, as he delivers a terrifying and persuasive vision of worldwide financial mastery that could only happen today.
