I didn't really love it. It was an okay book for me. I feel like if this was a movie or a TV series it would have been better. I think so mainly because the style is so similar for every book in the series that there was nothing refreshing or newness I could find in the book. But for someone who have not read any book in the series this might be great.

It didn't take me a year to read this, just a year to get around to updating Goodreads. It's an okay story. Like the characters more than I do the plot, which is a bit too far-fetched. Still a Baldacci fan, but this isn't in his top 10.

If you like the characters, you'll enjoy the book.

Good. Easy to read. Flows well. Not as good as some others by the author. Enjoyable but not great.

This is a classic King and Maxwell novel. It's filled with the usually brain storming, quick wit and plot twist that you would expect.

However. Though it had been awhile since I read "6th Man" I don't remember thinking that Edgar would be returning to the series. So it makes my wonder if Baldacci added him into the series again, especially going to work at King & Maxwell, because he is a regular on the tv show.

Either way, great read, great series and highly recommend
