Absolute Power

De: David Baldacci

Narrado por: David Baldacci, Scott Brick

In this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller, a burglar, Luther Whitney, breaks into a Virginia mansion, and witnesses a brutal crime involving the president—​a man who believes he can get away with anything. Featuring a Preface Read by David Baldacci.

In a heavily guarded mansion in the Virginia countryside, professional burglar and break-in artist Luther Whitney is trapped behind a two-way mirror. What he witnesses destroys his faith not only in justice, but in all he holds dear.

What follows is an unthinkable abuse of power and criminal conspiracy, as a breathtaking cover-up is set in motion by those appointed to work for one of the most important people in the world: the President of the United States.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[A] first-rate storyteller who grabs readers by their lapels right away and won't let go until they've finished his enthralling yarn." (Publishers Weekly)

OUTSTANDING!!!

There is ONLY one thing wrong with this book is that it ENDED!!!! It did end at good place but I wish it had gone on & on & on!

Great characters, great story, & and an excellent read by Scott Brick! No deed to say more BUT give it a try....!

Realities of Consequencies of Absolute Power

Although a work of fiction, one only needs to listen to the news or read the newspaper to see many similarities in the behavior of our elected and powerful leaders and celebraties. Absolute power truly corrupts. A truly sad commentary on the morals and values of much of our Society today.

Wow

Great book! While we saw the movie years ago, this book captured your attention from moment one. The level of detail and intrigue made me anxious as to when I would have the opportunity to get back and listen again! I hated to stop! Sorry it is over, Baldacci never lets you down.

Fantastic

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Really liked this book. Author does not waste time talking about obvious conflicts the main is likely having.

Rich of characters and details

What did you like best about this story?

It's not a shallow story. It goes deep into the characters (yet, not all of them) and keeps you interested.

Any additional comments?

It is definitely a nice book to listen to. Scott Brick is an amazing narrator. It's my first book of Baldacci and I never saw the movie and if this is his first book, then the rest are definitely greater and I can't wait to check. A slightly less "cheesy" details and this books is close to being perfect.

Wow

What a storyline, this book was a little slow in starting and then I was riveted to it, wow just could not believe it, it's fast paced, the storyline is gripping the end chapters just grab you...The narration is great...very thought provoking even if unimaginable......

Another excellent Baldacci book!! On the edge the whole time! Narration was perfect! A must read/listen.

A Great Diversion

There are some leaders who believe they are above the law and they are the most dangerous. A riveting read for a holiday.
