Oh, Baldacci, you had me until the very last disc of the audiobook! And then it fell apart--the old "killer tells all" is something that shouldn't be done in this genre. Can't we find out some other way? A note? A diary? A letter? Or at least a shorter confession and let the police figure it out?

But it was great to find out how Will Robie grew up--it explains a lot.

I'd give it 3.5 if I could. I was mostly annoyed by the writing style that's become loser (in my opinion) throughout this series until the story picked up and there were more people interacting and not so many thoughts and over use "And", " But" and "So" started sentences of Robie's thoughts. I did like the back story and some of the seemingly twisty-turny events though some of the dialogue was lame at times, just not thought out or necessarily reviewed writing, the character development of Will's past and raising was nice...though I'm not sure how credible the plot would *really* be. I did figure out "whodunit" early on though. Anyway, I enjoyed it more than the last one, so there's that.
