The Fourth Reich is waiting to be born. The only man who can stop it is about to sign its birth certificate. In 1945 the children of the Third Reich were secretly hidden all over the world-to be concealed until the 1970's, when they would come of age. Then the most elaborate plans and $780 million in a Swiss bank would be waiting. There would even be an unsuspecting outsider to set the plan into action. that outsider is Noel Holcroft, the American son of a high-ranking Nazi. He's just been shown an amazing document, the Holcroft Covenant. If he signs, it will be his own death warrant and a devastating threat to the security of the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars this book is longer than 75 pages July 10 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book requires a good attention span! I felt pretty confused for at least the first one hundred pages, and this was my second time reading it! Ludlum does very well helping the reader go through the same things that Noel Holcroft goes through. Ludlum has created and developed a great plot here too. Unfortunately, the ending might not be what you are hoping for, but it is satisfying to the maximum. The pages just keep turning, even when you know you should sleep. Read it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ludlum always satisfies. July 5 2011
By J Roche TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The Holcroft covenant is another fantastic Ludlum adventure. It is packed with intregue, action and suspense from cover to cover. If you have never read Ludlum this would be a good book to start with. Ludlum has a unique ability to wind and weave a story. He stuffs a novel with more intricate storylines than any author I've read and in such a way that you can not anticipate what's ahead.

The Holcroft Covenant is an excellent novel with intelligent villians and a group of determined and fortuitious heros. If you enjoy intrigue and adventure you will enjoy this novel.

Check out my other reviews for more Ludlum hit's and misses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Straight From Today's Headlines! Jun 3 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
You read stories every day in the business section about Nazi millions being discovered in a secret Swiss bank account. This takes place all over the world. This outstanding book tells about 700 million dollars being stored away in a Swiss bank account to start the Fourth Reich. This money is released by the signature of the children of Nazis who were taken out of the Nazi area aboard submarines. This is a truly spellbinding book that is hard to put down. Read this book and then watch the business section of your newspaper or the Wall Street Journal. You will know what I mean by realistic. It shows great writing by Robert Ludlum. Buy this book.

Named after its protagonist Noel Holcroft, "The Holcroft Covenant" is easily among Ludlum's top novels. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Ludlum classic!
I've recently found that in all the Robert Ludlum books I've been reading, and in some cases re-reading after several years, that his early work is by far his best. Read more
