What a disappointment. It didn’t even feel like Baldacci was writing this book until 3/4 of the way through. The beginning dragged, the main character was an idiot and the dialogue was stilted and lame. Once the plot picked up, it was still only okay but at least it was semi-interesting. This book could have easily been 150 pages shorter. I wouldn’t waste your time. Baldacci has so many other great books, this one is a dud.

Believe it or not, this was my very first Baldacci book. I don't know if I will pick up any others. His writing style just wasn't for me.
I can't really find the words for what didn't work for me. The book definitely moved slow. I found myself begging the author to just get on with it already. The twists didn't really surprise me. They flowed with the direction the book was going, which is a good thing. They just weren't big revelations or shocking.
I could go either way with the characters. They weren't fantastic but I didn't dislike them either.
Overall, this book was okay. It took a little too long to push through.
