Robert Ludlum's first Covert One novel. This is the beginning of a series that I have read all of. Intigue, politics and adventure in the current day.
Helpful Score: 1
I'm a die hard Ludlum fan. Loved, "The Ambler Warning" and the "Lazarus Vendetta". But, I couldn't finish this one. A bit too slow.
What can I say-it\'s Ludlum. Even though he is co-writing and seemingly \'grinding\' them out, it\'s still Ludlum-hands down the best mystery writer of our time
Doomsday virus kills 4 people, then it becomes known that the virus is in the hands of someone who may use it to start a pandemic.
The subject is very topical -- germ warfare. In this case, not from a foreign enemy but from an American pharmaceutical company that is using the threat of a panedmic to blackmail the leading nations of the world. A gripping story.
Part of the Covert One series of international thrillers. Doomsday virus spreads across the country. Search for the cause uncovers a high level plot and global intrigue. Typical Ludlum intensity and attention to detail.
First in a series, althought not necessary to read them in order of publication. International espionage/counterterrorism with a technological slant.
Great book, have yet to find a bad book written by Robert Ludlum. Always full of acton.
excellent
Gayle excels in the original Ludlum tradition....

An unknown doomsday virus quickly claims the lives of four epeople acorss the country--including Dr. Sophia Russell, a researcher leading the team trying to crack the disease. Her fiance, Lt. Col. Johathan Smith assembles a private team to aid his fight against the deadly virus.
First one in the "Covert-One" series. A good read.
Ludlum is a great writer. I enjoy the intrigue and suspense of his books.
First book in the "Covert One" series. Reads like a Robin cook novel.
An unknown doomsday virus quickly claims the lives of four people across the country---including Dr. Sophi Russell, a researcher leading the team trying to crack the disease. Devastated and enraged, her fiance, Lt. Colonel Jonathan Smith, uncovers evidence that his lover's death was no accident---that someone out there has the virus, and the pandemic that threatens countless millions of lives was planned.
