Publisher's summary

Oliver Stone and the Camel Club return in number-one best-selling author David Baldacci's most stunning adventure yet.

An attack on the heart of power...
In sight of the White House...
At a place known as...

Hell's Corner.

John Carr, a.k.a. Oliver Stone - once the most skilled assassin his country ever had - stands in Lafayette Park in front of the White House, perhaps for the last time. The president has personally requested that Stone serve his country again on a high-risk, covert mission. Though he's fought for decades to leave his past career behind, Stone has no choice but to say yes.

Then Stone's mission changes drastically before it even begins. It's the night of a state dinner honoring the British prime minister. As he watches the prime minister's motorcade leave the White House that evening, a bomb is detonated in Lafayette Park, an apparent terrorist attack against both leaders. It's in the chaotic aftermath that Stone takes on a new, more urgent assignment: find those responsible for the bombing.

British MI-6 agent Mary Chapman becomes Stone's partner in the search for the unknown attackers. But their opponents are elusive, capable, and increasingly lethal; worst of all, it seems that the park bombing may just have been the opening salvo in their plan. With nowhere else to turn, Stone enlists the help of the only people he knows he can trust: the Camel Club. Yet that may be a big mistake.

In the shadowy worlds of politics and intelligence, there is no one you can really trust. Nothing is really what it seems to be. And Hell's Corner truly lives up to its name. This may be Oliver Stone's and the Camel Club's last stand.

Great Listen

Best in the Camel Club series. Keeps you guessing. Multiple twists and turns. Highly recommend.

This Review Needs a Title...So...

Many twists and turns that are the hallmark of the Camel Club series. Oliver Stone in a joint operation with MI6. Just when I thought I had it figured out, the author twisted my tail once again. And....I can't wait for the next one.

good book

loved it good book love David Baldacci love Oliver Stone and all his friends. best book yet.

MY FAVORITE SERIES so far

I've read 27 of Baldacci books this is my favorite series so far. Oliver Stone great character. The twist and turns are worth the read. Not giving anything away but I was proud of myself for figuring out a big turn that took place in the end.

Great audible rendition

Having read all of Baldacci books listening to them is a joy.
Story tellers were magnificent

Great book!

David Baldacci is one of my favorite writers! He's written so many good series! All the ones about the Camel club are good! You want to read them from the beginning or at least in the right order!

There were quite a few people in this book. With that many new people it would probably have been easier to read this book. I bought this book from Audible when it would take forever to borrow it from the library.

Awesome Read

Books by David Baldacci are always good. This one kept me on the edge of my seat. Well worth getting.

Love the book but not the sound effects

First off, I love the book and the readers and am glad I got this version (the other option was only 7 hours so don't know how much maybe have been cut out of this). Also love that they had a female do the female voices (it's always hard to listen a man try and sound like a women and have it come off properly). The one thing I did NOT like about this audio book was the sound effects that went along with it at times. I did not care for the intense dramatic music, sound of gun shots or bombs exploding. it made it very hard to focus on what was being said by the narrators.

Great book

I have listened to many of David Baldacci's books, but I believe this is my favorite. There were so many twists and turns, right to the end, that there was no guessing how it would end.
DON'T MISS HELL'S CORNER

Love this series

I listened to this on Audible. This is my favorite Camel Club book so far. Love this whole series and David Baldacci’s writing. The two readers do a fantastic job of interpreting the characters and the final twist is awesome: I never saw it coming.
