Robert Ludlum's (TM) The Bourne Dominion

By: Robert Ludlum, Eric Van Lustbader

Narrated by: Jeremy Davidson

Secret agent Jason Bourne faces off against his loyal friend who has proven to be his ultimate betrayer, from a New York Times bestselling author.

Jason Bourne is searching for an elusive cadre of terrorists planning to destroy America's most strategic natural resources—and needs the help of his longtime friend, General Boris Karpov.

Karpov, the newly appointed head of Russia's most feared spy agency, FSB-2, is one of the most determined, justice-hungry men that Bourne knows. But Karpov has made a deal with the devil. In order to remain the head of FSB-2, he must hunt down and kill Bourne.

Now, these two trusted friends are on a deadly collision course. The clock is counting down to a disaster that will cripple America's economic and military future. Only Bourne and Karpov have a chance to avert the catastrophe—but if they destroy each other first, that chance will be gone forever.

The boring fight descriptions referenced above with added overly dramatic music which made it all worse.
