Well this is the first time I didn't even finish a David Baldacci book. I have loved every novel he's written but could not get into this book. I got half way through and found I never wanted to pick it up so returned it to the library unfinished. I didn't particularly like the characters (I found Mace extremely annoying for some reason...her name? who knows). Anyway, sorry David - this one didn't do it for me. ( )

I have read several books by David Baldacci and enjoy his work. I did enjoy the book and would look forward to reading more books with these characters.

Another Baldacci thriller. Interesting. Kept me interested throughout. Read on my Kindle. ( )

Mace is a recently released ex-convict, ex-cop and she wants to prove that she was framed. Her sister, Beth, is police chief in Washington D.C. Along comes an attorney who opens the refrigerator in his office building only to have a co-worker's body tumble out. Political intrigue, street thugs, of course things are not always as they seem. This was a good read for the genre despite some really improbable situations and characters – hey, it's fiction. It does make me wonder what all goes on behind the scenes, politically. I think, am not sure, that this is my first Baldacci book, but I will certainly read more of his novels when I am in the mood for some escapist mystery. ( )

This book is a new story line with new characters that I hope is just the beginning. The story is set in DC with an interesting mix of DC police, FBI, and intellegence agencies. The characters are great as always and I think you will see trait similarities between Mace and previous Baldacci characters. I would definitely recommend this book. ( )
