For the past three decades Robert Ludlum's bestselling
novels have been enjoyed by hundreds of millions of
readers worldwide and have set the standard against which
all other thrillers are measured. His Covert-One series
has been among his most beloved creations and now comes
the latest thrilling novel in the series. The Lazarus
Movement, the dominant force in the eco-
conscious, "anti-technology" protest movement, has sent
rumblings down the halls of the world's intelligence
agencies. Led by a mysterious, never-seen figure known
only as Lazarus, this increasingly prominent group is
believed by some to be preparing a bold strike. When an
attack on a nano-technology research facility leaves
thousands dead--- protestors and scientists alike---from
what appears to be a cloud of inadvertently released but
gruesomely deadly nanobots, pandemonium reigns. Lt. Col.
Jon Smith is activated by Covert-One to find and uncover
the truth about Lazarus where all others have failed. As
Smith slowly uncovers the deadly underpinnings of the
group, he soon learns that the Lazarus Movement is only
the very tip of the iceberg in a deadly scheme that
threatens billions of lives and will forever change the
nature of the world itself.
