all his books are great!!
This book was written 13 years ago. The premise is scary as h*ll. And after all that the US has gone through for the past four years with government officials lying to the American people and “fake news”, even more so.
But the ending was just not plausible and even hokey. I really enjoyed the ride up until about the last 25 or 30 pages.
David Baldacci is one of my very favorite authors!
A suspenseful read, Baldacci does a marvelous job developing the characters in his books and the story line is believable.
Not sure how I feel about this one. It takes a long time for the story to build but if you stick it out until the final third it’s worth it. Good.
I will read everything David Baldacci
