What could be better for a bibliophile than a thriller set right in the Library of Congress? Many things apparently. Camel Club as a series already seems a little long in the tooth here. The inclusion of female con artist as guest club "member" a nice touch. But “the collectors” dialog was only passable and thus a tad tedious to read. Die hard Baldacci fans will still enjoy. ( )

Love the characters and the story. A great page-turner. ( )

An interesting story that kept my attention. However I thought the dialogue was (to quote from the text) "out of a bad mobster movie". If you are a fan of David Baldacci you will enjoy this book.

This instalment of the Camel Club, did not charm me in the way the others did, possibly because it focuses on an additional group of con artists. And it seems like a lot of people die nasty deaths. ( )
