From the Ludlum Franchise. Writing is not up to Ludlum style. The story is OK but nothing new or different. Very Bourne-ish in plot. ( )

Good, Ludlum does it again. Hal Ambler, an agent comes out of an institution & tries to find his past which the Agency has totally erased. Intriguing. ( )

Written before the popularization of microexpressions, Ludlum delivers a suspenseful thriller that I found to be one of his best. There are several layers to every character and each new layer to the plot adds an interesting twist. I think of fresh-squeezed lemonade. (Or I might just be thirsty right now.) ( )

This is like most Ludlums, a little predictable, but still engaging. I didn't expect the crisis, but I'm sure others did. Unfortunately, for most of the book, I couldn't help thinking the whole thing was a lot like Bourne. Supreme op, no memory, unknown enemies chasing .... The auditor was a good and funny addition. ( )

It's ages since I read a Ludlam. This one was fast-paced and with a complex-enough plot to keep me guessing. It didn't quite live up to my fond memories of earlier readings, but it was still definitely entertaining and worth the read. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0312990693, Mass Market Paperback)

On Parrish Island, off the coast of Virginia, lies a psychiatric facility. Far from prying eyes, it is a government-run hospital for former intelligence employees in possession of highly classified information. Former Consular Operations agent Hal Ambler is one of these patients whose mind is filled with secrets of state—and is considered such a security risk that he is kept heavily medicated and closely watched. But there’s one critical difference between Ambler and the other patients—Ambler isn’t crazy. Now he must find a way to escape the facility, find out who put him there, and uncover the truth of who he was…and why someone is willing to risk everything to see him dead.
