Publisher's summary

It exists at the fringes of Washington, D.C., has no power, and consists solely of four eccentric and downtrodden members whom society has forgotten. Their simple goal is to find the "truth" behind their country's actions.

One man leads this aging, ragtag crew. He has no known past and has taken the name "Oliver Stone". Day and night, Stone and his friends study wild conspiracy theories, current events, and the machinations of government, hoping to discover some truth that will hold America's leaders accountable to its citizens. Yet never in Stone's wildest nightmares could he imagine the conspiracy the Camel Club is about to uncover.

After witnessing a shocking murder, the Club is slammed headfirst into a plot that threatens the very security of the nation, full of stunning twists, high-stakes intrigue, and global gamesmanship rocketing to the Oval Office and beyond. Soon the Club must join forces with veteran Secret Service agent Alex Ford, who becomes an unwilling participant in one of the most chilling spectacles to ever take place on American soil. It's an event that may well be the catalyst for the long-threatened Armageddon between two different worlds, and all that stands in the way of this apocalypse are five unexpected heroes.

In The Camel Club, best-selling author David Baldacci paints a frighteningly vivid portrait of a world that could be our own very soon, and the few people who have a chance to stop the chaos.

This book sets the stage for all the Camel Club books. I would definetly like to see more Camel Club books.

No. I listen in my car during my 35 to 55 minutes commute to work and same time frame from work.

The Camel Club

Wonderful. Especially for a long trip. The story keeps you alert and trying to work through the plot in your mind without getting bogged down.
Anyone who likes mystery will enjoy it.

A Fun Ride

An enjoyable (if unusual) group of people cobbled together to save the world. Just don’t expect too much real life. Like a trip to the amusement park when you are still young enough to enjoy it.

My Favorite Baldacci Book!

This is my favorite David Baldacci book! There's rarely a dull moment in this book. Action packed throughout and just when you think it can't get any better, it does!

Review

Loved it! very. interesting and exciting held my interest all the way to the end.

A Real Winner

My favorite book from the David Baldacci collection. The story kept my interest to the point I didn't want to stop listening.

way better than expected!

I kicked the tires on this series for years, mostly because it sounded so boring! A group of 4 quirky guys who meet to have conspiracy theory meetings didn't sound too engaging.
As it turns out, I was wrong. The characters are interesting and they have good development. the story is paced really well and ends with 1 second remaining..
I've read over 20 Baldacci books, and this one is one of his better novels. I'll be downloading the next book for sure!

Awesome Book

I highly recommend it, if you are a Baldacci fan then you will really want to add this to your collection
