The Road to Omaha


<p>"A very funny book... no character is minor:&nbsp;&nbsp;they're all hilarious." —<i>Houston&nbsp;&nbsp;Chronicle</i>.</p> <p><i>In The Road To&nbsp;&nbsp;Gandolfo</i>, Robert Ludlum introduced us to the&nbsp;&nbsp;outrageous General MacKenzie Hawkins and his legal&nbsp;&nbsp;wizard, Sam Devereaux, whose plot to kidnap the&nbsp;&nbsp;Pope spun wildly out of control into sheer hilarity.&nbsp;&nbsp;Now Ludlum's two wayward heroes return with a&nbsp;&nbsp;diabolical scheme to right a very old wrong — and&nbsp;&nbsp;wreak vengeance on the (expletive deleted) who&nbsp;&nbsp;drummed the hawk out of the military. Their outraged&nbsp;&nbsp;opposition will be no less than the White House.&nbsp;&nbsp;Byzantine Treachery. Discovering a long-buried 1878&nbsp;&nbsp;treaty with an obscure Indian tribe, the hawk —&nbsp;&nbsp;a.k.a. Chief Thunder Head — hatches a brilliant plot&nbsp;&nbsp;that will ultimately bring him and his reluctant&nbsp;&nbsp;lawyer Sam before the Supreme Court. Their goal: to&nbsp;&nbsp;reclaim a choice piece of American real estate —&nbsp;&nbsp;the state of Nebraska. Which just happened to the&nbsp;&nbsp;headquarters of the U.S. Strategic Air Command!&nbsp;&nbsp;Will they succeed against the powers that be? Will&nbsp;&nbsp;the Wopotami tribe ever have their day in the&nbsp;&nbsp;Supreme Court? From the Oval Office to the Pentagon,&nbsp;&nbsp;all the president's men are outfitted, until it&nbsp;&nbsp;rests with CIA Director Vincent&nbsp;&nbsp;"Vinnie the Bam-Bam" Mangecavallo to cut Sam&nbsp;&nbsp;and Hawk off at the pass. And only one thing is&nbsp;&nbsp;certain: Robert Ludlum will keep us in nonstop&nbsp;&nbsp;suspense and side-splitting laughter-through the very&nbsp;&nbsp;last page.</p>
