Tyrell Hawthorne was a naval intelligence officer until his wife was murdered. Now Hawthorne has been called out of retirement for one last assignment. For he is the only man who can track down the world's most dangerous terrorist, Amaya Bajaratt, who has set in motion a chilling conspiracy that a desperate government cannot stop. Hawthorne must follow Amaya's serpentine trail to uncover the sinister network that exists to help this consummate killer. And Hawthorne must discover the shattering truth behind the Scorpio Illusion....

Great story.

The narration was very poor for the first half of the book but better later. I nearly stopped after a few chapters. The storyline was a little too far fetched and not as I had hoped.

What disappointed you about The Scorpio Illusion?

The narrator's voice sounded like a mix of a computerised spectrum digital voice v Stephen Hawkins!. No emotional voice acting and a hugely monotonous tone. I had to switch off and was left majorly disappointed as I was looking forward to this story!!!!Get the narrator changed! Long live David Rintoul!!!!

Would you ever listen to anything by Robert Ludlum again?

Not unless there was a good narrator

How could the performance have been better?

Have someone like David rintoul narrating

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Anger!, frustration and lots of swearing at how awful it was.....

The narrator RUINED this.....!
