Jason Bourne returns to Georgetown University and the mild world of his alter ego, David Webb, hoping for normalcy. But after so many adrenaline-soaked years of risking his life, Bourne finds himself chafing under the quiet life of a linguistics professor. Aware of his frustrations, his academic mentor, Professor Specter, asks for help investigating the murder of a former student by a previously unknown Muslim extremist sect. The young man died carrying information about the group's terrorist activities, including an immediate plan to attack the United States. The organization, the Black Legion, and its lethal plot have also popped up on the radar of Central Intelligence, where new director Veronica Hart is struggling to assert her authority. Sensing an opportunity to take control of CI by showing Hart's incompetence, National Security Agency operatives plan to accomplish what CI never could-hunt down and kill Bourne. In Europe, Bourne's investigation into the Black Legion turns into one of the deadliest and most tangled operations of his double life-the pursuit of the leader of a murderous terrorist group with roots in the darkest days of World War II-all while an assassin as brilliant and damaged as himself is getting closer by the minute . . .

A continuation of a great character. Fast reading and i could not put it down.

Average but entertaining

I've read all of the Bourne series and while the Identity is by far and away the best, I would say this is the weaker of the Van Lustbader series, but not as bad as the Ultimatum. At least Bourne here was tough. I think that the author could have done a better job of making the characters multidimensional. The end felt rushed and the fight scenes were almost comical. For the next book I'd like to see more of the realism that Ludlum put in his books. I'd say this one is an average read.
