  • "The horrors of Amaya's past have made her an accomplished assassin. Behind her are the Scorpios, a clandestine network of the wealthy and well-placed, obsessed enough to overthrow governments. Tyrell Hawthorne had been a brilliant naval intelligence officer, now he is dragged reluctantly into the deadliest game of all as a mysterious woman embarks on a voyage of violence and mayhem, where love, too, may be a weapon."@en
  • "His name defines the international thriller. Now Robert Ludlum has crafted his most suspenseful, most surprising novel since The Bourne Identity - a multileveled, deftly plotted story of a brilliant and seductive woman who lives single-mindedly for revenge; the Scorpios, the powerful, shadowy forces that support her; and the one man who must find her before it is too late. Amaya Bajaratt is beautiful, elusive - and deadly. Born in a remote Basque village, she watched, a wide-eyed ten-year-old, as bayonet-wielding soldiers brutally beheaded her parents - and at that moment vowed death to all authority. Now the one man she loved has been killed in a terrorist raid and Bajaratt, an accomplished assassin and mistress of disguise and deception, has set in motion a bold act of vengeance: a masterful plan to strike with one violent blow at the heads of Israel, England, France, and the United States."
  • "Tyrell Hawthorne was a naval intelligence officer -- one of the best -- until the rain-swept night in Amsterdam when his wife was murdered, an innocent victim of the games spies play. Now he's called out of retirement for one last assignment. For Hawthorne is the only man alive who can track down the world's most dangerous terrorist. Amaya Bajaratt is beautiful, elusive, and deadly -- and she has set in motion a chilling conspiracy that a desperate government cannot stop. With his life and the life of the president hanging in the balance, Hawthorne must follow Bajaratt's serpentine trail, a path of seduction, betrayal, and the looming threat of death. Racing from a millionaire recluse's fortress to the social whirl of Palm Beach, from the Oval Office to treacherous Caribbean waters, Hawthorne will uncover a sinister network of well-placed men and women who exist to help this consummate killer -- and the shattering truth behind the Scorpio Illusion."

  • "Wanneer een ex-geheim agent een aanslag op de Amerikaanse president probeert te verijdelen, moet hij het opnemen tegen een knappe terroriste die wordt gesteund door Scorpio."
  • "Sie ist schön, geheimnisvoll - und tödlich Seit Amaya Bajaratt mit ansehen musste, wie ihre Familie getötet wurde, hegt sie einen tiefen Hass gegen jede staatliche Autorität. Sie wird eine der besten Attentäterinnen der Welt. Ihre Ziele: der Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten und führende Staatsoberhäupter der westlichen Welt. Dabei erhält sie Unterstützung durch eine mächtige Geheimgesellschaft namens Scorpio, die von einer unkartierten Karibikinsel aus ihre Fäden zieht. Nur ein ehemaliger US-Spion kann den teuflischen Plan durchkreuzen. Robert Ludlum erreichte mit seinen Romanen, die in mehr als 30 Sprachen übersetzt wurden, weltweit eine Auflage von über 280 Millionen Exemplaren. Robert Ludlum verstarb im März 2001. Die Romane aus seinem Nachlass erscheinen bei Heyne."
