1. The Ambler Warning: Robert Ludlum
Hidden on a remote island is a top-secret facility housing former US intelligence operatives who present a security risk to their government. One of them, Hal Ambler, escapes—only to find that every detail of his past has been erased. On the run, he uncovers a high-level conspiracy to bring about a major shift in the balance of world power.
