The Forgotten

When Army Special Agent John Puller finds his aunt dead in Florida, he suspects it's no accident...and as local police dismiss the case, the cracks begin to show in a picture-perfect town in this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller.

Army Special Agent John Puller is the best there is. A combat veteran, Puller is the man the U.S. Army relies on to investigate the toughest crimes facing the nation. Now he has a new case--but this time, the crime is personal: His aunt has been found dead in Paradise, Florida.

A picture-perfect town on Florida's Gulf Coast, Paradise thrives on the wealthy tourists and retirees drawn to its gorgeous weather and beaches. The local police have ruled his aunt's death an unfortunate, tragic accident. But just before she died, she mailed a letter to Puller's father, telling him that beneath its beautiful veneer, Paradise is not all it seems to be.

What Puller finds convinces him that his aunt's death was no accident...and that the palm trees and sandy beaches of Paradise may hide a conspiracy so shocking that some will go to unthinkable lengths to make sure the truth is never revealed.

Kept me guessing...

If you could sum up The Forgotten in three words, what would they be?

What a ride!!!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Forgotten?

The foursome trying to get on the structure during a storm... I kept picturing One Star to slip off the edge when she slipped off...

Which scene was your favorite?

Landry shooting blanks at Puller... busted!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Diaz died in the battle...

Any additional comments?

Both Landry's and One Star's voice sounded too alike... if I missed the name, I had to rewind it to see which one he was performing... Great book... fast ride all along. Curious to know more about the brother in military prison...

Did you read Zero Day

What made the experience of listening to The Forgotten the most enjoyable?

This is a great follow up to Zero Day. It will start fast and take you on a roller coaster ride with lots of curves and screams.

Reacher?

Reminds me a lot of the Jack Reacher Series by Lee Child. Still a good read. I especially love the dual narrators. Excellent work on their part!

Great story line

I cannot say anything negative. The story, characters and narration were excellent. The sequence of events were right on target. Hopefully not the last of John Puller.

great thriller

Baldacci does it again. Great (and different) plot with non-stop action. You won't be disappointed!
