I am taking this from MissCyn's audio box. Thanks for sharing!
This is going into the Audio Bookbox Ray. Happy travels!
I had been reading Robert Ludlum's Matarese series and was looking for another one of his spy thrillers. In looking through my stash of audio cassettes, I found this audiobook. It was an enjoyable escape for me as I did mundane office tasks.
Backcover:
For fifteen years Nicholas Bryson was a top deep-cover operative for the Directorate, a clandestine branch of the U.S. intelligence. After nearly being killed during a mission, he was retired to a quiet new identity as a college professor inPennsylvania. Now, five years later, the CIA has contracted Bryson to tell him that his former employer was in fact using him against his own country's interests. The CIA wants Bryson's help to shut down the Directorate for good.
But Bryson's skills are rusty, his contacts unreliable, and he doesn't know whom he can trust. Nor does he know why he suddenly finds himself in an assassin's crosshairs. Is this tied to the worldwide increase in terrorism? To the shadowy Prometheus? And Elena, his wife, who abruptly left him years ago - was she who she seemed to be?

Sending this off in my 'Cassettes Are Still Alive' bookbox. First Stop: LittleWhiteBird
I loved this book, I wish Ludlum was still with us , but alas, it's not to be, at least we have a large body of work to enjoy.
Since I've read this book before, i'll be passing it on.
