Product Description

Ingram

An American secret agent in Buenos Aires must stop a sinister plot to establish a coalition between warring nations during WWII. 3 cassettes. --This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition.

From the Publisher

Autumn 1943. Global espionage elite converge on Buenos Aires. Intense, high-level covert negotiations will soon bear dangerous fruit with the aid of expatriate German industrialist Erich Rhinemann. American agent David Spaulding will be there. His top-secret mission can bring the war to an explosive end. But what happens here in this city of assassins, double crosses, and erotic encounters is to be the most sinister and terrifying deal ever made between two nations at war. Quickly, the game changes, truths darken, hidden secrets emerge. And suddenly Spaulding is the man in between, the man furiously struggling for his sanity, the woman he loves, and his very life... the only man who can save the world from the horrible truth of The Rhinemann Exchange.

"A superb plot filled with exciting chases, double crosses, secret codes, and beautiful women....A picture of the beastliness underlying the espionage world, a world of brilliance without scruples, brutality without restraint." --Chicago Tribune --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars Robert Ludlum, Mar 7 2009

By	John K. Parnell (Millbrook Cornwall) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Rhinemann Exchange (Paperback)

There is alot more to this author than Jason Bourne. After reading them I have come across his other titles, they are great, this The Rhinemann Exchange has to be one og his better books. Its a little slow, but the story is very original and a classic.
It would make a brilliant film.

3.0 out of 5 stars Didnt quite live up to potential., Aug 5 2003

By	Godly Gadfly (Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: The Rhinemann Exchange (Paperback)

The Rhinemann Exchange features a fascinating fictional premise that Ludlum has dreamed up within the setting of the closing stages of the Second World War. Germany desperately needs shipments of industrial diamonds to perfect its rockets. The USA desperately needs functional high-altitude gyroscopes to perfect aircraft guidance systems. Both sides have what the other needs. And so unfolds "an exchange between enemies at the height of the bitterest war in the history of mankind" (p97), with Erich Rhinemann functioning as the liaison in the neutral territory of Buenos Aires to oversee the exchange. David Spaulding, the man from Lisbon, is the American agent released from his service in Portugal and commissioned on a secret mission to bring the gyroscope blueprints back to the USA. But he doesn't know the terrible secret of the diamond transfer which his country is giving up in exchange. And who is trying desperately to stop the exchange? And what role in the action does the fanatical Jewish group Haganah play? What unfolds is combination of action and suspense, in typical Ludlum style. But in the end the novel didn't quite live up to the potential that the premise offered, and the story lacked the heart-stopping action and suspense of Ludlum's better page-turners, and was burdened with too much confusing political dialogue, and unexplained loose ends. An interesting read, but newcomers to Ludlum would be advised to begin instead with some of his better books, such as (in my preferred order) The Bourne Identity, The Materese Circle, The Holcroft Covenant, and The Aquitaine Progression. -GODLY GADFLY

4.0 out of 5 stars What it lacked is a good motive for the "disruptors"
Okay, stranger things probably did happen in real-life besides enemies exchanging vital resources while continuing their fight. Read more
