Publisher's summary

Jason Bourne tackles a global media conspiracy in the latest electrifying entry in Robert Ludlum’s #1 New York Times bestselling series.

Jason Bourne has faced many killers before, but none as dangerous or as cruelly inventive as the assassin who calls himself Lennon. Bourne thought he had Lennon cornered in Iceland, only to have the killer escape in a fiery explosion. Now Lennon’s trail leads Bourne to New York and then to Washington – and the body count rises with each deadly encounter.

But who is Lennon working for? Bourne believes the assassin has a shadowy new employer called the Pyramid. The only clue to the group’s agenda is a young German woman murdered in Washington on her way to a covert meeting. But the woman’s entire identity turns out to be a lie, and news reports of her death have been strangely twisted and suppressed.

Finding the truth about this woman may be Bourne’s only chance to catch Lennon – and uncover the conspiracy behind the Pyramid. But the chase comes with high stakes. Bourne’s former lover, journalist Abbey Laurent, is digging into the mystery too, and Jason’s perilous battle against Lennon and the Pyramid will soon put Abbey in the assassin’s crosshairs.

Bourne will need to use every bit of his tradecraft and his genius for mayhem to expose this web of lies and murder before Lennon kills the woman he loves.

Critic reviews

“Colorful characters and solid plotting continue to make this series a pleasure.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Exciting action scenes, the untangling of the Pyramid mystery, Bourne’s fighting skills, and the enduring conundrum of his lost past keep the pages turning. Freeman is a worthy successor to Robert Ludlum.”—Publishers Weekly

Best Bourne Novel

Brian certainly knocked it out of the park with The Bourne Sacrifice and having Scott Brick lend his voice was perfect! One gentle complaint, you left us hanging at the end when Bourne remembered things from his past.

I nearly gouged my eyes out!

Can’t wait for the next audible book from Brian and Scott!!!!

Great great great

Another great book by Robert Ludlum that you cannot put down. I can’t wait for the next one

Great Series

It really knows how to keep this series going. Anyone Reading this series Should start from the beginning.

Good addition to the Bourne saga

Bourne went through a time period with another author that got too far fetched and completely unbelievable. Brian Freeman brings Bourne back to the hero of the Robert Ludlum days. Welcome back Bourne!

It’s what I like

Keep’s me on the treadmill I loved all the books and looking for the next one. WR

New Bourne Era

Start of a new Bourne Era. Can't wait for the next chapters in his life

Well done!

Great job by Brian Freeman. Interesting, well written and intriguing. Definitely worth a read. Loved it!

Hold on to your ear buds….

First of all congratulations goes to Scott brick nobody does a better job of narration than this narrator. He is amazing I have listened to everything that Scott brick has narrated and in fact my choice of books or based on his narration. Having said that, Jason Bourne and this book in particular is one of the best. Well thought through good plot a good set up for a sequel. Great job to the author. Can’t wait for the sequel.

Great book. You should read if you are spy drawn

Was a great book. High suspense. Captivating. The reader really keeps you going. The story keeps you going

Too slow

Terrible ending. Slow moving. Not enough spy trade craft. Jason appears more like a detective rather than the best spy in the world.
