The Last Monarch

CURED

Thanks to Chiun's "emptying sin" technique, past U.S. presidents remember nothing about CURE, America's most secret defense organization. Now a former head of state believed to have lost his mind suddenly finds it—and calls Dr. Harold Smith to say hi. But before Remo and Chiun can redo their amnesia trick, the old guy is kidnapped by bumbling eco-terrorists eager to sell him to a desert despot with a grudge.

As the ex-Mr. President doggedly tries to outwit his captors and single-handedly save the Middle East from extinction, Remo and Chiun pick up the trail, and a worried Dr. Smith fingers his cyanide pill, convinced this is the end. For Remo, it will be...unless Chiun drops the attitude he's adopted over a certain fiasco involving his Hollywood screenplay, and the world's most deadly assassins end up killing each other before they can save anyone else.
