Stone Cold

De: David Baldacci

Narrado por: Ron McLarty

In this #1 New York Times bestseller of conspiracy and murder, the Camel Club faces their greatest threat yet: a casino king and a stone-cold killer who are determined to bury the truth.

Oliver Stone, the leader of the mysterious group that calls itself the Camel Club, is both feared and respected. Keeping a vigilant watch over our leaders in Washington D.C., the club has won over some allies, but it has also made some formidable enemies.

Annabelle Conroy, an honorary member of the Camel Club, is the greatest con artist of her generation. As an old, powerful mark hunts her down and the Camel Club tries to protect her, a new opponent suddenly arises.

One by one, men from Stone's shadowy past turn up dead. Behind this slaughter stands one man: Harry Finn. To almost all who know him, he's a loving father and husband who uses his skills to keep America safe. But Finn is also an unstoppable killer who now sets his lethal bull's-eye on Oliver Stone. And with Harry Finn, Stone may well have met his match.

—Publisher's Weekly (starred review)

"It's a sign of Baldacci's skills as a storyteller that he brings so many revenge-themed plots together into a single, riveting thriller. In STONE COLD, he ups the ante. Virtually every character, no matter which side of the power divide he occupies, plays both pursuer and pursued at some point in the novel."
—Richmond Times Dispatch

"Baldacci's intricately woven plotlines, well-developed characters, fast-paced action, and surprise ending will leave readers satisfied and wanting more. A sequel worthy of its predecessors; highly recommended for all fiction collections."

3 1/2 out of 5

I actually give this book a 3.5 out of 5 because of the dialogue. In the early part of the book, I almost sacked it because I thought the dialogue was kind of cheesy and contrived. I eventually kind of got over it and it turned out pretty decent. I say I "kind of got over it" because, obviously from this review, I never "really" got over it. Again, it was a good book as long as you can get by some of the dialogue.

Love the Camel Club series

Loved it, connections continue with new relationships and characters added. Great listen! Can't wait for next book.

Stone Cold was Hot

I really enjoyed this book and the additions of the new members of the Camel Club. The double story line did mesh together, but the end of the sub plot was a little lacking. Overall though, I will chose this author over others. Great narration.

Absolution revenge and absolution b

Raise a child in the manner you wish the man to become and do not veer from the path. When revenge is the goal we se rhe depth that people will go for self aggrandisement.
