The Bourne Betrayal

Eric Van Lustbader

Book 5 in the Jason Bourne series

Having seen the Bourne movies, I figure I would start this series after the films. Treadstone is dead and Bourne is basically free of Central Intelligence. But when his only really friend Martin Lindros ends up missing, he goes out to find him. His contacts at CI try to support him, or wrangle him, and the NSA and DOD basically want him dead. Lots of back home political intrigue intertwined with the spy thriller action of finding out what happened to Lindros. And Bourne brings in his contacts in Russian FSB and drug/weapons selling cartels to help him out. It seems like a few individuals rise to the top as "trustworthy", but in his life, Bourne can never be sure.

3 stars (out of 4)
