Publisher Description

In the #1 New York Times bestselling thriller that inspired the TV series King & Maxwell, two private investigators dig into a killer's past--but when their search threatens powerful enemies, it could cost them their lives.

Edgar Roy--an alleged serial killer--is awaiting trial. He faces almost certain conviction. Sean King and Michelle Maxwell are called in by Roy's attorney, Sean's old friend and mentor Ted Bergin, to help work the case. But their investigation is derailed when Sean and Michelle find Bergin murdered.

It is now up to them to ask the questions no one seems to want answered: Is Roy a killer? Who murdered Bergin? The more they dig into Roy's past, the more they encounter obstacles, half-truths, dead-ends, false friends, and escalating threats from every direction. Their persistence puts them on a collision course with the highest levels of the government and the darkest corners of power. In a terrifying confrontation that will push Sean and Michelle to their limits, the duo may be permanently parted.

Page turner

I hadn't read the previous books in this serious but I will now. It's a well written crime drama that keeps you turning the page. the "twist" at the end was a little predictable but in short it's a fun, easy reading, page turner and worth the purchase.

Hollow effort

The entire book never came together for me. The storyline was clear and crisply presented, but the characters - both main and ancillary - were presented narrowly and without a lot of color. Their motivation was rarely well understood: from the trooper who keeps sticking his neck out for no good reason to a knee-breaker turned good guy to a whiz-bang genius CEO who abruptly needs help formulating and executing the most basic of plans to a former spook with an endless Rolodex of friends and favors to call in, the interactions of the characters was lost in sporadic, halting plot development.

Baldacci does good work. This isn't one of them, though.

Fast moving page tuner

Couldn't put it down. One of his best.
