I am a big fan of David Baldacci and happy to see a Travis Devine, the 620 man return in The Edge。 This was a slower paced book than usual, but worth sticking with。 There is a large cast of characters but again, they are all unique and have their place in the story。 Baldacci has a way of making the reader get so absorbed into the story that you can’t help yourself from reading well into the night to finish。Travis Devine has been busy since we last saw him。 He is sent to investigate the murder of I am a big fan of David Baldacci and happy to see a Travis Devine, the 620 man return in The Edge。 This was a slower paced book than usual, but worth sticking with。 There is a large cast of characters but again, they are all unique and have their place in the story。 Baldacci has a way of making the reader get so absorbed into the story that you can’t help yourself from reading well into the night to finish。Travis Devine has been busy since we last saw him。 He is sent to investigate the murder of a CIA operative who has been found murdered in the coast of Maine。 Her family are well known and respected and it is personal for Travis’ boss。 He soon finds that this small town is full of secrets and cover ups and nobody is telling him the whole truth。 The local police resent having him there asking questions。 The locals don’t trust him, and somebody is trying to kill him。 The further he digs, the more bodies he finds。 David Baldacci books are just written to be made into a movie or TV series and I am surprised that they haven’t been。 A twisty and suspenseful crime thriller that is well worth the read。Thanks to Macmillan Australia for sending me an advanced copy of this book to read。 Published in Australia on November 1st 。。。more
