Atlee remembers the day her twin sister was kidnapped. She's still haunted by it. Now she works for the FBI and is a lone agent in Shattered Rock, AZ responsible for the Grand Canyon area.
A mule is found stabbed at the bottom of the canyon and the rider is missing - Pine is pulled into a terrifying case.
Cover blurb - If she disobeys direct orders by continuing to search for the missing man, it will mean the end of her career. But unless Pine keeps working the case and discovers the truth, it could spell the very end of democracy in America as we know it...
Baldacci knows his stuff and writes quite a credible tale. His heroine, Atlee, is a force of nature. The pages turn as we stay on the precipice, awaiting a fall. Whew! I look forward to reading the rest of the series. Stay tuned for more reviews.
Yep - very true as we approach November Election Day 2022. Democracy - it needs to stand.
Hi Joanne - sounds an interesting read ... I'd love to be able to read as much as you do!!?? Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteI read but it goes in one eye and out the other. I wish I could remember more what I read. I come back to my blog sometimes to refresh my mind for a description of a book to recommend to someone. Silly me!
