Excellent book! Robie and Reel make an intriguing pair in the espionage world.

I know I never say much about Baldacci's books, but that's because what I say is sufficient. They're not great. They're not terrible. I enjoy them, but am certainly not changed or deeply moved by them. In shorty, they are exactly what I usually say, "Good."

This was a bit predictable but it was the third book in the series. I will miss the characters but I have to say that I really need a break from them.

Far fetched action adventure with lots of explosions, but fun brain candy.

Another great performance on the audio/narration front. There's quite a bit going on plot-wise which was fine but I'm deducting a star for a certain request made by a VIP in the last fourth of the book that was just too contrived to let slide.

Sometimes too much action is a bad thing. The book suffered from too many plot lines. For me that really slowed down the pace of the book. I also never got fully invested in the story so as each plot line wrapped up I was never satisfied. I enjoy reading Mr Baldacci and especially the Robie and Reel team, so I cant wait for the next in the series.
