The Road to Gandolfo
Inhaltsangabe
In this wickedly funny novel, Robert Ludlum combines the explosive pacing of The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy with a bitingly witty send-up of everything from government bureaucrats and pandering military men to the mob, the law, and organized religion.
War hero and infamous ladies’ man General MacKenzie Hawkins is a living legend. His life story has even been sold to Hollywood. But now he stands accused of defacing a historic monument in China’s Forbidden City. Under house arrest in Peking, with a case against him pending in Washington, it looks like the end of Mac’s illustrious career.
But he has a plan of his own - and it includes kidnapping the Pope. What’s the ransom? Just one American dollar - for every Catholic in the world. Add to the mix a slew of shady “investors”; Hawkins’ four persuasive, well-endowed ex-wives; and a young lawyer and fellow soldier who wants nothing more than to return to private life - and you’ve got one relentlessly irreverent page-turner.

Amos Decker and his FBI partner Alex Jamison are visiting his hometown of Burlington, Ohio, when he’s approached by an unfamiliar man. But he instantly recognizes the man’s name: Meryl Hawkins. He’s the first person Decker ever arrested for murder back when he was a young detective. Though a dozen years in prison have left Hawkins unrecognizably aged and terminally ill, one thing hasn’t changed: he maintains he never committed the murders. Could it be possible that Decker made a mistake all those years ago?

So enjoyable
I've read the hardcopy some years ago and I've "lost" it, so when I had the chance, I got this here.
The narrator did a great job and brought the book back again to me.
Thank you all for that

Genial!
Ein wundervoller Sprecher liest dieses geniale , humovolle Buch. Keine Sekunde der Langeweile, ganz im Gegenteil: es fällt schwer, sich davon zu trennen.
Viel Kichern und Lachen, das Buch verbreitet soo viel Vergnügen, es hätte noch Stunden weitergehen können. Freue mich schon auf die nächste Road-to- Story.
