Publisher's summary

Already devastated by loss, Bourne is shattered by a report that his last friend in the world, Martin Lindros has gone missing. A CI deputy director, Lindros was in Ethiopia tracking suspicious shipments of yellowcake uranium and atomic bomb weaponry. His last lifeline to humanity, Bourne will not let Lindros go. Despite his hatred for CI, Bourne sets out to rescue his friend and finish the job: dismantling a terrorist network determined to build nuclear armaments by cutting off their source of money.

But Bourne doesn't realize that these men, Islamic supremacists, are leaders of an incredibly dangerous, technologically savvy group with ties from Africa, across the Middle East, and into Eastern Europe and Russia. They have predicted Bourne's every move, and are counting on his unwitting help in their plans to destroy America.

Leaves Questions

A good book but the end leaves a lot of questions you wish it could have wrapped up a little better

Not quite Ludlum

Ok, so the first of the new series was AMAZING. This was almost as good. I had a few problems with parts of the plot, I just don't know that they could get away with some of it. It reminded me a little to much of Mission Impossible. It was still a good read...er listen.

I love the BOOK!!!!

By far the best of the bourne books, Eric Van Lustbader did a great job of telling the story of The Bourne Betrayal.

Great BOURNE makes you listen to the next one!

Where does Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Betrayal rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The best one so far of course not counting the ones introducing Jason Bourne.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

The plot keeps you on edge because you didn't know which way it would go and if Jason was on the right course with the right person.

Have you listened to any of Jeremy Davidson’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is the first Jeremy Davidson's I have listened to. He was good.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, but once I listen to a 1/4 of it, I wanted to finish.

Any additional comments?

I am going to listen to the next one. I hope the author keeps them coming.

Best Bourne book so far

I began listening to the series and was surprised to hear how different that they were from the movie. The twists,turns and details of this book would make a great script

Soundtrack with effects?!? Whaa..

Loving the book so far but the soundtrack and effects are a flat out distraction! Please don't let this be something that is in every book going forward!! If the narrator can't keep your attention then replace them but don't add - I's not a movie. Looked for an option to turn it OFF and found non. *sigh* will suffer through it to finish the story but don't do this please!! If this is part of the writers style for audio books I won't go beyond this series. Simply wait for the movie to come out!

storyline was good

love bourne. loved the performance and the story. would recommend to friends and family.

A Bit To Much

This story was mostly nonstop action, but with a storyline that has been used many times in the past. There was a slight shift from the norm but nothing really new. I was definitely conflicted in my view of this story. It was a good story, but some parts were so farfetched it made it hard to believe. However if you like action and a main character that can't be killed this is the story for you. It really did keep me coming back for more. Some books are just bad and you drop them like a rock, but this story had enough good parts to it that it keep me on the hook

FANTASTIC

This book kept me on the edge of my seat--- FANTASTIC

Amazing Fiction

This book is a curious mixture of fantasy fiction, science fiction, spy thriller and comic book hero activity. It is perfectly obvious that the maneuvers and escapes accomplished by the hero and heroine are totally impossible. However the overall effect is amusing and interesting, so the fictional aspects can be forgiven.
