A wickedly funny Robert Ludlum you've never met before. All the explosive paving of The Bourne Identity; the Byzantine treachery of The Parsifal Mosaic, the relentless action of The Bourne Ultimatum. The Principal Cast: General Mackenzie Hawkings, legend, hero, rogue. Sam Devereaux, bright young lawyer from Harvard, now in the army, can't wait to get out. General Hawken's four ex-wives, a quartet of incredibly endowed women who've formed a club: Hawkin's Harem. The Premise: Kidnap Pope Francesco I, the most beloved pontiff since John XX III. Ransom: One American dollar for every Catholic in the world. The Problem: Pope Francesco I says: „Gentle souls, why not?”
