The Story:
The Lazarus Movement, a group of eco-conscious, "anti-technology" protesters, led by a mysterious figure known only as Lazarus. When an attack on a nano-technology research facility leaves thousands dead, protestors and scientists, from what seems to be a cloud of deadly nanobots, the world in chaos.

No one can seem to find out what has happened. Lt. Col. Jon Smith, army officer, scientist and member of a top secret intelligence group called Covert-One is activated to find and uncover the truth about Lazarus. As Smith slowly uncovers the deadly underpinnings of the group, he learns that the Lazarus Movement is only the very tip of the iceberg in a deadly scheme that threatens billions of lives and will forever change the nature of the world itself. Will Jon Smith find those responsible before more people are killed ....

My Book Review:
What an amazing book. I couldn't put it down. It was fast paced and full of action and suspense from the first page to the end. Jon Smith is so cool! A normal guy on the outside, super agent on the inside. Don't get him angry. You won't like him when he's angry! You won't if you're the bad guy. I only wish someone told me about Robert Ludlum's books years ago. This was my first book in the series created by Robert Ludlum. I look forward to reading many more books by this author.

Stay tuned for reviews on 2 other amazing Covert One books, The Hades Factor (first book that introduces Lt. Col. Jon Smith) and The Cassandra Compact.
