Publisher's summary

Redemption is the fifth heart-pounding memory man thriller in David Baldacci’s Sunday Times bestselling series.

FBI consultant Amos Decker returns to the scene of a family tragedy, and is confronted by more than just painful memories.

A felon on a mission.

When Decker returns to Burlington, Ohio, he is tracked down by his first homicide arrest, Meryl Hawkins, a man who still maintains his innocence.

A rookie’s mistake.

With Hawkins recently released from his life sentence, Decker finds himself questioning what had once seemed watertight evidence. Is the real killer still out there?

A murderer at large.

As the body count rises in a new crime spree, Decker and his former partner Mary Lancaster dig deeper and reopen the old case – and old wounds.

Back in his home town and plagued by the ghosts of his past, Amos Decker is compelled to discover the confronting truth . . .

The fifth audiobook in the Amos Decker crime series, following the The Fallen. Continue the series with Walk the Wire.

Critic reviews

"A star performance by Kyf Brewer and Orlagh Cassidy should push this audiobook to the top of every thriller fan’s must-hear list. As a result of being hit on the head, Amos Decker, portrayed by Brewer, can remember everything that ever happened to him, complete with emotions. Brewer owns Decker’s intensity. He gives the character great focus and a steely resolve to find out whether the late Meryl Hawkins, a man he convicted of murdering four people 13 years earlier, was truly guilty. Cassidy tackles every female character with precision and care. Her take on Mary Lancaster, Decker’s former partner, showcases her abilities with the pregnant pause and perfect pacing. Together they create a presentation second to none and provide supercharged entertainment." (AudioFile)

Another smashing hit in the series. Characters evolving and dive into the live of the protagonist is exceptionally well scripted.

Production issues

Somehow the post production of this book is not as good as the others in the series. It just doesn't flow. There are weird pauses between words that keep pulling you out of the story

Redemption is another great instalment in the Amos

Redemption is another great instalment in the Amos Decker series. Decker is visiting his family's graves in his old home town when a dying man, who Decker had convicted and put away for life at the start of his Detective career, approaches him claiming his innocence and asking Decker to clear his name. After consiering the mountain of comprehensive forensic evidence stacked against the guy Decker calls on him, only to find him murdered. As the investigation continues someone tries to kill him, the local Police try to warn him off and nothing is really quite right and no-one is really quite what they seem. A well rounded book full of mystery and intrigue from David Baldacci with great narration from Kyf Brewer and Orlagh Cassidy. A top tier effort and I look forward to the next in the series,
