In the years after Hoover's death the secret started coming forth. Many individuals had been covered by J. Edgar Hoover and his secret files. That notion made this book all the more believable Inver Brass in this very entertaining book decided to eliminate Hoover and the threat of his secret files. It became evident that not all of the files had been captured. People all over the country started getting blackmailed and some killed. Then members of Inver Brass started getting assasinated

The guilty party shocked me beyond belief. This book along with Holcroft Covenant are the best that Ludlum has done.

Very "old" Ludlum (c/r 1997) but very good.

The story revolves around a massive conspiracy about whether or not Hoover was murdered. The story is told in true Ludlum style, with enough intrigue and interesting characters to keep you turning the pages.

A fun, enjoyable read. Something to sit down in front of a fire with on a rainy day or read lazing in a warm sun. Typical Ludlum writing, and typical of the genre.
