The Prometheus Deception Ludlum, Robert

Nicholas Bryson was one of the CIA's best operatives — until the agency he bled for turned on him, burned his identity, and erased him from existence. Fifteen years later, living a quiet academic life under a new name, he's pulled back in by a shadowy counterintelligence group claiming the CIA itself has been compromised. Now Bryson doesn't know who to trust: his former handlers, his new employers, or even his own memories. Ludlum delivers a relentless espionage thriller where every alliance is suspect and every truth might be another layer of deception. The action spans continents, the twists come hard and fast, and the paranoia is thick enough to cut with a knife. Perfect for fans of le Carré's moral ambiguity wrapped in Ludlum's trademark pace — and anyone who thinks Jason Bourne is the only agent Ludlum ever got right.
