Maxims remarkable new thriller -- which anticipates the development of unstoppable viral weapons -- is reassuring in at least one regard: It has threatened and angered Paul Bannerman. The story begins not in Westport  Connecticut  where Bannerman and a group of his deadliest operatives have been trying to live otherwise normal lives  but in a fortified estate outside Washington  D.C.  where the billionaire sociopath Artemus Bourne has taken delivery of a package. It was supposed to contain samples of horrific bio-weapons that one of his offshore firms created. Instead  the package held three severed heads. One belonged to the scientist whod developed those weapons. The other two belonged to men whod tested the virus on humans. Bourne knows who sent him the three heads and why; it is an act of vengeance by a man long thought dead. He is out of Bournes reach  but Bourne knows that mans one weakness -- a woman who is the great love of his life. If Bourne can find her  his problem might be nipped in the bud. But Bournes solution puts him at odds with Paul Bannerman  himself a friend of this woman. And Bannerman has a number of \"ghosts\" of his own  so-called because they  too  are thought to be dead and beyond the reach of the living. But none of them are beyond the reach of Artemus Bournes deadly viral weapons. If Bannerman does not agree to stand down  anything in Westport that breathes will die. This new Bannerman adventure  long awaited and much requested  is a heart-stopping tale ripped from todays headlines. It is also a tale of loyalty  of honor  and of a love that transcends life and death.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45789805936693,"sku":"ByrdShop_006000584X","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780060005849.jpg?v=1784699665","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/bannermans-ghosts-9780060005849","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
