The Tristan Betrayal

By: Robert Ludlum

Narrated by: Paul Michael

In the fall of 1940, the Nazis are at the height of their power. France is occupied, Britain is enduring the Blitz and is under threat of invasion, America is neutral, and Russia is in an uneasy alliance with Germany. Stephen Metcalfe, the younger son of a prominent American family, is a well-known man about town in occupied Paris. He's also a minor asset in the U.S.'s secret intelligence forces in Europe. Through a wild twist of fate, it falls to Metcalfe to instigate a bold plan that may be the only hope for what remains of the free world. Now he must travel to wartime Moscow to find, and possibly betray, a former lover, a fiery ballerina whose own loyalties are in question, in a delicate dance that could destroy all he loves and honors.©2003 Myn Pyn, LLC.; (P)2003 Audio Renaissance, A Division of Holtzbrinck Publishers, LLC

Critic reviews

"The fast-paced plot reflects Ludlum's genuine knack for constructing good stories�" (Booklist)

alright read

this was just alright read, the story stayed on track but it got boring. It dragged to a close.

Entertaining Listen--Pure Ludlum!

Being both a Ludlum fan and fan of WWII material, I thought this was a very good book. After having not read Ludlum for a few years, I was a little bit leery about his titles that were published after his death, but for me, this was pure Ludlum. I had just finished listening to The Janson Directive which was good, but the Tristan Betrayal was much closer to what I remembered from Ludlum. I had a hard time putting this one down and found myself taking the long-way to my destinations in my car to get to the next chapter. The reader also does a great job with all the different accents that make the book that more interesting. A definite read for Ludlum fans.

Classic WWII spy story

I truly enjoyed the story, it would make a great TV mini series... again that my taste.

The plot is very engaging and keeps you hooked on the story. Another well done book by Ludlum.

Great

A good story. I got lost a couple of times between the present and the past in the story, but good overall.

So good

As usual. Another masterpieces.
Words to make up minimum word count blah blah blah blah
