A retired secret agent discovers that the organization he worked for was a clandestine operation working against the good of the country in Robert Ludlum’s The Prometheus Deception. Summary of the Book Nicholas Bryson’s years as a deep cover operative for the Directorate ended in an embarrassment. He was retired to a new identity. A few years later, he was forced to come out of retirement after his cover is blown. The Directorate is not what he thought it was. He had worked for them as a pawn in an operation against the country’s best wishes. Now the Directorate is steering its operatives towards a dangerous endgame, one that threatens the peace of the country. The CIA contacts Bryson, asking him for his help. Yet, he’s in doubt. His skills are rusty to say the least and his contacts are alarmingly unreliable. He has yet to come to terms that everything he’s lived for is a lie, but he doesn’t have time. The country’s safety is at stake, and the lives of millions hang in the balance. About Robert Ludlum Robert Ludlum was an American novelist.
