What critics compared The Osterman Weekend to
Robert Ludlum's labyrinthine thrillers have already attracted the attention of such film makers as John Frankenheimer ("The Holcroft Covenant") and Sam Peckinpah ("The Osterman Weekend").
That’s why its very hard to sum up a Ludlum book without sounding a little cheesy, and why two of his best – “The Holcroft Covenant” and “The Osterman Weekend” proved truly dud movies despite being fantastic reads.
