De: David Baldacci

Narrado por: Ron McLarty, Orlagh Cassidy

Former Secret Service Agents turned private investigators, Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, return in their most surprising, personal and dangerous case to date. King and Maxwell is the explosive finale to David Baldacci's phenomenal series.

King and Maxwell encounter teenager Tyler Wingo when he has just received the tragic news that his soldier father has been killed in Afghanistan. But then Tyler receives an email from his father . . . after his supposed death.

Sean and Michelle are hired to solve the mystery, and their investigation leads to deeper, even more troubling questions. Could Tyler's father really still be alive? Was his mission all that it seemed? Has Tyler's life been a lie, and could he be the next target?

It's clear that King and Maxwell have stumbled upon something even more sinister when those in power seem intent on removing them at any cost. Determined to help and protect Tyler, their search for the truth takes them on a perilous journey which not only puts their lives at risk but arrives at a frightening conclusion.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Baldacci inhabits the skin of his creations – tripping us up with unexpected empathy and subtle identification<i>.</i>

One of the world’s biggest-selling thriller writers, Baldacci needs no introduction . . . Brilliant plotting, heart-grabbing action and characters to die for.

As usual, Baldacci delivers the goods in fine style, with thrills and spills aplenty.

Baldacci cuts everyone’s grass – Grisham’s, Ludlum’s, even Patricia Cornwell’s – and more than gets away with it.

Contender for Baldacci's worst book...

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

absolutely the worst book Baldacci has written with its trite characters and unbelievable plot. The story would be looked down upon the most derring do fifth formers.Can't think who would enjoy it. I must admit on name alone I listened until part 2 but in the 200 odd books I have chosen from audio books this is the first I have not finished.

What was most disappointing about David Baldacci’s story?

Just the absolute triteness of the oh too macho characters ,including Maxwell, and the heavy so-called humour of her slovenishness.

What three words best describe Ron McLarty and Orlagh Cassidy ’s voice?

Soap operaish

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Pity that such a good talent would put his name to this rubbish
