Rating: 5 Stars

Summary: Will Robie is the United States Governments top assassin. He has completed assignments all around the world, but this is a story based on the one time he fails to pull the trigger. He embarks on a dangerous search for truth with a tenacious FBI agent and a fiercely independent and intelligent teenaged girl. The search leads to the unravelling of one of the greatest conspiracies in history. Not only must Robie deal with the pressure of maintaining his secret identity from those he must work with, but he most also deal with the struggle to stay unfeeling and uncaring about the women he must work with, because in his line of work friends can be just as dangerous as enemies.

Review: This is a fantastic book of which I have now read 3 times it is a true thriller. When you open it, it is a true challenge to put it down. The character of Robie is complex and exiting. Baldacci shows perfectly the human need to care and Robies struggle not too. It has many exiting action scenes and just as many scenes in which the characters exude complex and intriguing dialogue. This a book i would recommend to those enjoy complex realistic government thrillers.
