Robert Ludlum S the Janson Equation

To prevent a war in Asia one that could quickly spread to the rest of the world Paul Janson and Jessica Kincaid must learn the truth behind a young woman s murder.

Prominent US Senator James Wyckoff hires former government agents-turned-private security consultants Janson and Kincaid to locate his teenage son Gregory. Gregory s girlfriend Lynell has been found strangled in a Seoul hotel, and Gregory has fled the city to avoid being arrested for the crime. But Senator Wyckoff insists that his son is innocent, suggesting that Lynell, who was a translator, may have been murdered because of something she overheard at a recent international conference. And when Janson and Kincaid realize they re being hunted by an assassin, they suspect that this crime and the cover-up were orchestrated by a shadowy unit of the US State Department as part of a larger plot to provoke violence between North and South Korea."
