The President knows it's a perilous, high-risk assignment. If he gives the order, he has the opportunity to take down a global menace, once and for all. If the mission fails, he would face certain impeachment, and the threats against the nation would multiply. So the president turns to the one team that can pull off the impossible: Will Robie and his partner, Jessica Reel.

Together, Robie and Reel's talents as assassins are unmatched. But there are some in power who don't trust the pair. They doubt their willingness to follow orders. And they will do anything to see that the two assassins succeed, but that they do not survive.

As they prepare for their mission, Reel faces a personal crisis that could well lead old enemies right to her doorstep, resurrecting the ghosts of her earlier life and bringing stark danger to all those close to her. And all the while, Robie and Reel are stalked by a new adversary: an unknown and unlikely assassin, a woman who has trained her entire life to kill, and who has her own list of targets--a list that includes Will Robie and Jessica Reel.

David Baldacci

David Baldacci

David Baldacci is one of the most recognizable names in contemporary thriller fiction, known for his intricately woven plots and relentless pacing that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. With a career spanning decades, Baldacci has made a remarkable mark on the genre, seamlessly blending complex characters with sharp social commentary and high-octane action.

Born in Richmond, Virginia, Baldacci's journey to becoming a bestselling author was anything but typical. Before embarking on his writing career, he earned a law degree and worked as a lawyer, an experience that provided him with a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of justice and the legal system—two recurring themes that often appear in his work. It was in the world of law that Baldacci found his voice for creating stories that explored both the personal and political complexities of society, bringing them to life through characters that feel as real as the world they inhabit.

Baldacci’s debut novel, Absolute Power, introduced the world to his signature style—a gripping narrative with twists and turns that keep readers hooked. Since then, his bibliography has grown to include over 40 novels, with his works translated into dozens of languages, touching the hearts and minds of millions worldwide. His books, often dealing with themes of political intrigue, personal redemption, and the pursuit of justice, have earned him a spot among the giants of the thriller genre.

What sets Baldacci apart is his uncanny ability to create characters who feel like they could step off the page and into real life. From the gritty, morally complex government agents in the Amos Decker series to the brilliant yet troubled detective duo in The Memory Man books, Baldacci’s characters are multidimensional, flawed, and endlessly fascinating. Each book showcases his commitment to crafting deeply human stories within the framework of fast-paced, page-turning narratives.

In addition to his literary achievements, Baldacci is a philanthropist. He founded the Wish You Well Foundation, an organization dedicated to promoting literacy and supporting programs that fight poverty in the U.S. His passion for improving lives, both in his writing and through his charitable work, underscores his deep connection to the themes of hope, justice, and second chances that define much of his fiction.

David Baldacci’s work continues to captivate, thrill, and inspire readers around the world, with each new novel expanding the boundaries of what a great thriller can be. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to his world of gripping suspense, there’s no better time to dive into the mind of one of the genre’s most influential voices.
