Publisher's summary

Audie Award Winner, Thriller/Suspense, 2014

From David Baldacci - number-one best-selling author and one of the world's most popular, widely read storytellers - comes the most thrilling novel of the year.

Will Robie is a master of killing.

A highly skilled assassin, Robie is the man the U.S. government calls on to eliminate the worst of the worst - enemies of the state, monsters committed to harming untold numbers of innocent victims.

No one else can match Robie's talents as a hitman...no one, except Jessica Reel. A fellow assassin, equally professional and dangerous, Reel is every bit as lethal as Robie. And now, she's gone rogue, turning her gun sights on other members of their agency.

To stop one of their own, the government looks again to Will Robie. His mission: bring in Reel, dead or alive. Only a killer can catch another killer, they tell him.

But as Robie pursues Reel, he quickly finds that there is more to her betrayal than meets the eye. Her attacks on the agency conceal a larger threat, a threat that could send shockwaves through the U.S. government and around the world.

After reading the first book in this, series this book made a lot more sense quickly since I had already been familiar the way he was writing. In my opinion there two voices that read the book made the book it really helped put a picture on the kind of characters made out in the book. I think as a whole it was another very very good book I read by David and I have read most of them. I am looking forward to the third series but can't afford it right now

One of the best thrillers I have ever listened to!

This book is wonderful! It has every element that I look for in a book : characters you can fall in love with, a plot with twists and turns that makes you want to never stop listening, great dialogue, believable details, and a great narrator. I can't believe I waited so long to try this series!
