Scorpio illusion

For the outside reading this quarter i am reading the Scorpio Illusion by Robert Ludlum. The main character in the book is Captain Tyrell(Ty for short) Hawthorn who is a former agent in the central intelligence agency. Captain Hawthorn is a very complex character. They are trying to draw him back into the military but he is very reluctant to do so because his wife was murdered because he was a spy. He is very withdrawn from society and is a very nervous twitchy man. But as in all Ludlum novels( the author if the Bourne trilogy) his characters are like action heroes.
