Publisher's summary

When her husband mysteriously disappears in a plane crash into the Virginia countryside, a devastated wife must sort out truth from lies in this pause-resisting New York Times best seller.

Sidney Archer has it all: a husband she loves, a job at which she excels, and a cherished young daughter. Then, as a plane plummets into the Virginia countryside, everything changes. And suddenly there is no one whom Sidney Archer can trust.

Jason Archer is a rising young executive at Triton Global, the world's leading technology conglomerate. Determined to give his family the best of everything, Archer has secretly entered into a deadly game. He is about to disappear - leaving behind a wife who must sort out his lies from his truths, an accident team that wants to know why the plane he was ticketed on crashed, and a veteran FBI agent who wants to know it all.

Excellent read!

Liked the suspenseful plot, lots of twists and turns!! Couple of events were far-fetched, but not enough to matter much. Liked the ending. It was believable!

Narrating made it rough

I have read/listened to almost all of Baldacci's. This narrater was a poor fit with his voice and inflections. The story dragged on for a bit during the first half but all in all it was an entertaining book.

Riveting story!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found Sidney Archer to be intelligent, strong, & able to persevere with whatever she was thrown. I'm glad she wasn't a weeping willow who fell apart when the wind blew. I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone. On to the next one.
