About this listen
At a small-town carnival two men, each mysteriously summoned by telegram, witness a bizarre killing. The telegrams are signed Jason Bourne. Only they know Bourne's true identity and understand the telegram is really a message from Bourne's mortal enemy, Carlos, known also as the Jackal, the world's deadliest and most elusive terrorist. And furthermore, they know that the Jackal wants: a final confrontation with Bourne.
Now David Webb, professor of Oriental studies, husband, and father, must do what he hoped he would never have to do again: assume the terrible identity of Jason Bourne. His plan is simple: to infiltrate the politically and economically Medusan group and use himself as bait to lure the cunning Jackal into a deadly trap, a trap from which only one of them will escape.

Using the name of Jesus Christ as swear words
I couldn't stand it any longer; it seemed like the name of Jesus Christ was used for swearing at every corner. I reluctantly stopped the story and deleted it from my phone.
It was a good story.

Disappointed Ludlum fan.
Previously strong characters are now lacking depth, sincerity and maturity.
Lengthy, boring paragraphs stoked with equally boring dialogue lead me to question how this instalment adds any value to the Bourne story. Wishing I had fewer reasons to be critical.
