Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0553560441, Mass Market Paperback)

"A very funny book... no character is minor:  they're all hilarious." --Houston  Chronicle.

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.
