I have read several of Baldacci's works before and they have always been entertaining. This, however, is his best work to date. You have a sick, twisted, former commie, super bad guy. Not one, but two sets of good guys. A little sex, a good amount of violence, some sadism, interesting locales. Good times….
Now be advised, our main hero (like I said, we have two sets here) is another one of those ‘I’m the baddest man walking the face of the earth’ types. And our heroine (from the other camp) is hot, tiny, and can kick everyone’s ass too. So, as usual, suspended disbelief will help.
This book has a bunch of unexpected plot twists that keep you guessing until the end. A thoroughly enjoyable read. So says…
