What are you hoping for from this book?

A great wind-up to Michele and Sean and that he'll write anther one in this series...but I'm not holding my breath:) I read this book when it first came out so also hoping that I remember some of it without giving away too much.

I'm looking for a great ending to this series. Will Michele and Sean finally commit to a relationship? Sorry to see this series end because it was an enjoyable ride.

I'm hoping for a good ending for the series, and to see whether it is led open for a book 7 at some point in the future. I also want to see where the relationship between Sean and Michelle goes given Michelle's near death in the last book.

Just looking for a good read. I will let Baldacci take me where he will. I guess the only thing I hope for is no cliffhanger since another book in the series is not on the horizon.

This book was written in 2013...so four years and two new series. I can't see him writing another of these. Wish he would though:(

King and Maxwell was published in 2013 and in 2014 David Baldacci said this when the series was cancelled for tv:

TKT: King & Maxwell was cancelled after one series. That must have been a shock.
DB: I was so surprised by that. I was looking at the World Almanac for 2014 and they had the top 40 cable TV shows for 2013, and King & Maxwell was at number four. It was the only one in the top 40 that was cancelled! They may resurrect it; I know some of the producers are interested in doing that. But I’ll be writing more King & Maxwell novels because I think they still have more life in them. In the meantime though, I’m working on my next Will Robie novel, The Target. And I have a fantasy novel out too, for Scholastic.

So it looks like he does plan on writing more King and Maxwell books.

>8 Andrew-theQM: But it is 2017 and I think he had more than enough time to write a new one but we haven't seen it yet.

I'm looking forward to a good story that doesn't end in a cliffhanger.
