A gripping geopolitical thriller, The Cry of the Halidon pulls readers into the sun-drenched yet treacherous landscape of Jamaica, where a powerful and ancient secret society — the Halidon — holds sway over the island's fate. Robert Ludlum, the undisputed master of the modern thriller, constructs a labyrinthine web of conspiracy, corporate greed, and political intrigue as protagonist Alexander McAuliff is recruited to lead a geological survey that masks a far more dangerous mission. Beneath the island's tropical surface, McAuliff uncovers centuries-old alliances and ruthless forces determined to control Jamaica's vast mineral wealth at any cost. Ludlum delivers his signature breathless pacing, morally complex characters, and globe-spanning tension, making this novel a standout in his celebrated canon. Originally published under the pseudonym Jonathan Ryder as The Cry of the Halidon, this edition brings the full force of Ludlum's storytelling to a new generation of readers.
