“Ludlum piles conspiracy upon counterconspiracy, keeping his hero and the reader dangling right to the end.”
—Barbara A. Bannon, Publishers Weekly
“His best yet … A compound of fact and fiction manipulated with masterly skill … We are satiated these days by sensation … What will keep the reader turning the pages is no longer just sensation but style, suspense and skill on the storyteller’s part. Ludlum has all three … A top-flight novel of action and intrigue.”
—John Barkham Reviews
“Reads as though Ludlum has his very own ‘Deep Throat’… Contains details about the secret workings of intelligence agencies that seem frighteningly accurate.”
—Christian Science Monitor
“An even better novel than The Rhinemann Exchange—a rousing adventure with no dull moments.”
—Cincinnati Enquirer
“Ludlum’s best yet!”
—San Francisco Examiner
