About this listen

David Baldacci's novels have been called "sizzling" (USA Today) and "superior" (Houston Chronicle). Now Baldacci is back, with the story of a death row inmate, a Supreme Court clerk, and a crime that is costing people their lives.

Michael Fiske broke the law when he took Rufus Harms's prison letter from the Supreme Court. But he also sealed his own fate. Now Michael's brother, a cop turned attorney, is coming to Washington to find out why his brother was murdered - and what it had to do with a crime that Rufus Harms committed 25 years before.

In his new novel of corruption, romance, family, and justice at the heart of the American republic, David Baldacci takes us on a journey of harrowing conspiracy - and proves once again that in the realm of suspense, he is in a league of his own. The simple truth... it's never what it seems.

I always enjoy reading or listening to books by David Baldacci. However, I found this one to be difficult to follow until about half way through when the story picks up.

Thank you

excellent listening novel

The story took some twists I didn't see coming and the overall mystery driving the plot was compelling enough to keep the pages flying by. A peek behind the curtain of the politics of the Supreme Court was very interesting as well.

Far more than a legal thriller

I was saddened that Mr. Baldacci felt it was necessary to use extreme profanity in the beginning of this book. I just about returned it to Audible for this reason. I was glad I continued on because he cleaned up the language and it was a great mystery.

I very much enjoyed the story, but the volume/sound quality on the audiobook was varied and mostly very low.
