Redemption

De: David Baldacci

Detective Amos Decker's past mistake from his rookie detective days may have led to deadly consequences in this thriller by #1 New York Times bestselling author, David Baldacci.

Decker is visiting his hometown of Burlington, Ohio, when he's approached by a man named Meryl Hawkins. Hawkins is a convicted murderer. In fact, he's the very first killer Decker ever put behind bars. But he's innocent, he claims. Now suffering from terminal cancer, it's his dying wish that Decker clear his name.

It's unthinkable. The case was open and shut, with rock solid forensic evidence. But when Hawkins turns up dead with a bullet in his head, even Decker begins to have doubts. Is it possible that he really did get it wrong, all those years ago?

Decker's determined to uncover the truth, no matter the personal cost. But solving a case this cold may be impossible, especially when it becomes clear that someone doesn't want the old case reopened. Someone who is willing to kill to keep the truth buried, and hide a decades-old secret that may have devastating repercussions ...

Love Amos Decker

Baldacci has created another memorable Memory Man tale. Every detective should have Decker Memory!! Hgrest story!

Another wonderful story

Another wonderful story full of action and investigators services by Decker and team. As usual, I enjoy the stories, but it almost seems like he’s in his old world and he figures out everything by himself but again the killing of people it’s it’s really disappointing. Nevertheless, I feel that you just the story and it makes things are interesting towards the end.

How things can happen right under your nose. And, you might not see them.

I like Decker showing his weaknesses and humanness. And, his willingness to accept help this time
