Synopsis: This sequel to the fan-favorite spy thriller THE BOURNE IDENTITY inspired a 2004 film starring Matt Damon in the title role. Jason Bourne does not exist. He is merely a cover identity for CIA assassin David Webb, now in retirement. Nevertheless, someone has taken the Bourne identity--and used it to kill the Chinese Vice-Premier. Disturbed by this event, the CIA kidnaps Webb/Bourne's wife in order to force him to go after both the impostor and his master, a Chinese minister with a devastating secret agenda. Publisher's Note: A KILLER WITH NO FACE, NO IDENTITY, AND A NAME THE WORLD WANTED TO FORGET: - JASON BOURNE Reenter the shadowy world of Jason Bourne, an expert assassin still plagued by the splintered nightmares of his former life. This time the stakes are higher than ever. For someone else has taken on the Bourne identity - a ruthless killer who must be stopped or the world will pay a devastating price. To succeed, the real Jason Bourne must maneuver through the dangerous labyrinth of international espionage - an exotic world filled with CIA plots, turncoat agents, and ever-shifting alliances - all the while hoping to find the truth behind his haunted memories and the answers to his own fragmented past. This time there are two Bournes - and one must die. Super-diplomat Raymond Havilland sets up the kidnapping of Jason Bourne's wife, in order to draw Bourne out of retirement and into a Taiwanese plot to seize Hong Kong and incite China against the West. Condition: Binding - fine, new and unread, only removed from the original publisher's shrinkwrap to take pictures, does have a couple of very slight flaws to the side page edge gilding.
