What The Bourne Identity is

Mediterranean, late summer. A body adrift, pulped by waves. Amnesiac Bourne is hauled ashore and hunts for clues to his identity, discovering a past as a government assassin. His former handlers now want him permanently erased. One tight thriller of the post-9/11 distrust era.
