In The Road To Gandolfo, Robert Ludlum introduced
us to the outrageous General MacKenzie Hawkins and his
legal wizard, Sam Devereaux, whose plot to kidnap
the Pope spun wildly out of control into sheer
hilarity. Now Ludlum's two wayward heroes return with
a diabolical scheme to right a very old wrong --
and wreak vengeance on the (expletive deleted)
who drummed the hawk out of the military. Their
outraged opposition will be no less than the White
House. Byzantine Treachery. Discovering a long-buried
1878 treaty with an obscure Indian tribe, the hawk --
a.k.a. Chief Thunder Head -- hatches a brilliant
plot that will ultimately bring him and his
reluctant lawyer Sam before the Supreme Court. Their
goal: to reclaim a choice piece of American real estate --
the state of Nebraska. Which just happened to
the headquarters of the U.S. Strategic Air Command! Will
they succeed against the powers that be? Will the
Wopotami tribe ever have their day in the Supreme Court?
From the Oval Office to the Pentagon, all the president's
men are outfitted, until it rests with CIA Director
Vincent "Vinnie the Bam-Bam" Mangecavallo to cut Sam and
Hawk off at the pass. And only one thing is certain:
Robert Ludlum will keep us in nonstop suspense and side-
splitting laughter-through the very last page.
