Patrick Larkin meets the quality established by Ludlum--he may be the sucessor!
Great spy novel, but a bit gory.
great medical spy thriller with chilling technology that is on the horizon
When an attack on a nano-technology reseace facility leaves thousands dead--protestors and scientists alike__from what appears to be a cloud of inadvertently released but gruesomely deadly nanobots, pandmonium reigns. Lt Colonel Jon Smith is activated by Covert-One to find and uncover the truth about Lazarus where all others have failed.
This book was chilling. A real eye opener that you will never forget!
Ludlum at his best! Fast pace excellent action !
Excellent book-another winner in the Covert One series. I look forward to the next one.
Latest in the Covert-One series. Mixes nano-technology with terrorism. I could not put it down until I finished it.

A Covert - One novel from the New York Times best seller list. People magazine called it, "One heck of a thriller... loaded with all the intrigue, paranoia, and real life parallels that made Ludlum famous."
This book is in excellent condition. Read one time on the plane!

Didn't read it
If you were a fan of Robert Ludlum and expecting clever intrigue, carefully drawn characters, in complicated but credible plots then this is not for you. Larkin follows some of the rough outlines of a Ludlum thriller but goes over the top early with a plot that involves world wide genocide, no less, with science fiction nanomachines that strain credibility to the breaking point. Readers familiar with Dale Brown and his series involving Patrick McLanahan and high-tech developmental air power will have seen the same sort of excess when he made the jump from tricked out B-52's and brave shock troopers to orbiting fighter planes and manned robotic super-soldiers. At least Brown did it to himself and can rue the consequences. All Robert Ludlum can do is roll over in his grave. Please, enough.
