Description

When Walter Nash is recruited by the FBI to help bring down a global crime network his life is turned completely upside down in this thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author David Baldacci.

Nash is an intelligent man, tough but fair-minded. He has a wife and a daughter and a very high-level position at Sybaritic Investments, where his innate skills and dogged tenacity have carried him to the top of the pyramid in his business career. Despite never going on grand adventures, and always working too many hours, he has a happy and upscale life with his family.

However, following his estranged Vietnam-veteran father’s funeral, Nash is unexpectedly approached by the FBI in the middle of the night. They have an important request: become their inside man to expose an enterprise that is laundering large sums of money through Sybaritic. At the top of this illegal operation is Victoria Steers, an international criminal mastermind that the FBI has been trying to bring down for years.

Nash has little choice but to accept the FBI’s demands and try to bring Steers and her partners to justice. But when Steers discovers that Nash is working with the FBI, she turns the tables on him in a way he never could have contemplated. And that forces Nash to take the ultimate step both to survive and to take his revenge: He must become the exact opposite of who he has always been.
And even that may not be enough.

    Consistent storyline and excellent action sections. Baldacci at his best.
  • Not up to Baldacci’s usual standard.

    Other than the protagonist, Nash, the characters are very single dimensional. The time line in the story seems unrealistic as do the characters reactions to events in the timeline. I have read most of David Baldacci’s books and this is not among his best.

    Beware before you start this book - it ends with the story unresolved! There is another book coming out in Spring 2026 that continues the saga, Hope Rises. That said, it’s a good read if you can stand to wait for the next chapter.

    The ending leaves many loose story lines that made me regret wasting my money and time on this terrible book! Now I have to wait for the next abomination and waste more money….which I will NOT do! Shame on you, Balducci! Worse than Patterson!!!?,

    This is a fun book with lots of twists and turns but when it reaches a climax you learn the resolution will not happen until April 2026 when the next book is released.
