 | | Jason Bourne, the eponymous amnesiac assassin featured in three novels written by Robert Ludlum in the 1980s, reappears in the new The Bourne Legacy, published three years after Ludlum's death. |
 | | As the new novel opens, Bourne, otherwise known to the civilian world as David Webb, is living the calm, restful life of a Georgetown University professor — the Bourne identity having been repressed into his subconscious. |
 | | Bourne then reaches out to his old handler, Alex Conklin, who also is living a quiet life in suburban Washington, only to discover that both Conklin and Bourne's psychiatrist have been murdered. |
