Reviews"En conclusion, nous dirons que cet ouvrage tresimportant se veut exemplaire par la rigueur qu'il impose a sa propre démarche. (...) On saura toutefois gré à l'auteur d'avoir relevé de défi et d'avoir apporté au chantier exegétique une contribution de haute valeur."Damien Noel in: Biblica 91.1/2010 "Mit seiner Dissertation gelingt dem Verfasser ein ebenso materialreiches wie gut lesbares Buch. Durch seine vielfältigen Neuansätze und weitgespannten Synthesen wird es die weitere Diskussion zweifellos befruchten."S. Rudnig-Zelt in: ZAW 119/2007 "[...]hat die Diskussion um die Komposition und Redaktion des Zwölfprophetenbuches erheblich vorangetrieben."Stefan Beyerle in: Theologische Literaturzeitung 5/2007, Lustbader is an excellent storyteller and is not afraid to keep the twists and turns coming in this sequel...This is an explosive addition to a series with an unrivaled heritage and storied pedigree.

SynopsisIn Europe, Bourne's investigation into the Black Legion turns into one of the deadliest and most tangled operations of his double life-the pursuit of the leader of a terrorist group with roots in the darkest days of World War II--all while an assassin as brilliant and damaged as himself is getting closer by the minute . . . Jason Bourne returns to Georgetown University and the mild world of his alter ego, David Webb, hoping for normalcy. But after so many adrenaline-soaked years of risking his life, Bourne finds himself chafing under the quiet life of a linguistics professor. Aware of his frustrations, his academic mentor, Professor Specter, asks for help investigating the murder of a former student by a previously unknown Muslim extremist sect. The young man died carrying information about the group's terrorist activities, including an immediate plan to attack the United States. The organization, the Black Legion, and its lethal plot have also popped up on the radar of Central Intelligence, where new director Veronica Hart is struggling to assert her authority. Sensing an opportunity to take control of CI by showing Hart's incompetence, National Security Agency operatives plan to accomplish what CI never could-hunt down and kill Bourne.
