The Scarlatti Inheritance, (Paperback)

from TadAD

Not the best early Ludlum book (I think it was his first), though a lot better than late Ludlum.

from ZoharLaor

Even though this is one of the first books Robert Ludlum it is one of the last ones I read so you could imagine my delight when I found this a Ludlum book I haven't yet read during a book drive at my daughter's school. The book starts in Washington DC where Major Matthew Canfield is being sent to...

from Lukerik

Clunky, thinly written and ill-conceived. If you've heard good things about Ludlum and were looking to read something by him I recommend The Holcroft Covenant. To be fair, Scarlatti does pick up slightly in the second half but I'm rating by the weakest link. Goodbye.

from AliceAnna

Not a typical Ludlum -- the majority of the novel takes place in the past. A pretty good story, but not one of the best. I did like the strength of the family matriarch in causing the ultimate demise of her son. She was a great character.

from gmillar

This one got me hooked on Ludlum as a great, fun read.
