Description
The Road to Omaha is a sharp-witted and fast-paced political thriller that marks the return of the infamous General MacKenzie Hawkins, known simply as the Hawk. A sequel to The Road to Gandolfo, this novel finds the ageing but unstoppable Hawk hatching another outlandish scheme—this time involving a $500 million legal loophole, an obscure treaty, and a daring land claim on American soil. Caught in the crossfire once more is his reluctant ally, lawyer Sam Devereaux, who is swept into a whirlwind of absurd legal manoeuvring, military nostalgia, and high-stakes deception.
Blending satire with suspense, The Road to Omaha offers a lighter side of espionage fiction, infused with dry humour, political parody, and razor-sharp dialogue. While grounded in the style of classic Ludlum thrillers, it stands out for its comic energy and irreverent take on American institutions. Whether you’re a returning reader from the first novel or diving in for the first time, this book delivers entertainment in spades.
