In the process, he lost everything he held most dear. For twelve years, Sterling has hidden from life, as a student at a small Maryland college, working as a reporter for the college newspaper. He is assigned to interview Kenneth Boland, the author of a high-profile tell-all book outlining the activities of the world's most secret covert intelligence agencies. When Boland's house explodes, his dying word - AMADEUS - propels Sterling headlong onto the gameboard of international intrigue, as a major player! In order to stay alive, Sterling must discover the meaning of AMADEUS, match wits against the latest generation of a dynasty of assassins dating back almost a thousand years, and forestall the realization of a four hundred year old prophecy which could spell the destruction of modern civilization! Don't miss this pulse-pounding thriller from the author of THE VALENTINE PROFILE, and BOBBY J.! Average Rating:
 Rating: - Dazzling ThrillerIf you crave sleep, stay away from this book. Once you start THE AMADEUS LEGACY, sleep will no longer be an option. At least not until you've finished. Simply put, you will not be able to put it down. Helms' latest winner is fast-paced with non-stop action and a plot as intricate as it is brilliantly conceived. It tells the story of Geoffrey Sterling, who must solve the mystery of "Amadeus," a conspiracy centuries in the making. It also sheds light on some of histories great mysteries. Read More Rating: - The Amadeus LegacyI loved this book, a winner, hard to put down. Who can you trust? I wondered from the first chapter. The action is literally non-stop to the very last word! A clever plot, expertly woven. Please, Richard Helms, tell me there's a sequel in the works! Helms masterfully weaves fiction around history in a credible way. You pulled me into Sterling's corner and kept me there. I felt like I knew him. His villain had dimension which came through in moments of introspection. A nice touch. Rating: - Amadeus LegacyA tremendously adsorbing, action-packed read. Helms writes a convincing story of conspiracy at the highest levels of national security in this country. Though the plot is involved, he does a masterful job of tying it all together at the conclusion. (Don't skip a page; everything is relevant!) A good story, well told, hard to put down!
