The Zero Game

De: Brad Meltzer

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The New York Times bestselling author of The Millionaires and The First Counsel returns to Washington, D.C., with the story of an insider's game that turns deadly.

Matthew Mercer and Harris Sandler are best friends who have plum jobs as senior staffers to well-respected congressmen. But after a decade in Washington, idealism has faded to disillusionment, and they're bored. Then one of them finds out about the clandestine Zero Game. It starts out as good fun-a simple wager between friends. But when someone close to them ends up dead, Harris and Matthew realize the game is far more sinister than they ever imagined-and that they're about to be the game's next victims. On the run, they turn to the only person they can trust: a 16-year-old Senate page who can move around the Capitol undetected. As a ruthless killer creeps closer, this idealistic page not only holds the key to saving their lives, but is also determined to redeem them in the process. Come play The Zero Game-you can bet your life on it.©2004 Forty-Four Steps, Inc.; (P)2004 Time Warner AudioBooks, a division of the Time Warner Book Group

An unconventional political thriller

I'm calling this book a very unconventional look at DC politics. Who's to say every bit of this isn't true? It's creative, a little crazy, and a high-quality thriller. We even get some threads of the espionage genre tangled in for good measure. Who doesn't love that?

book

It was okay. I felt it was slow for me. Good and bad parts.

slendid.

Simply put, this was splendidly inventive. Great in all areas of lieraturary works. Im sorry I am not one to say a ton for no reason.

Another great book

Another great book and it's so captivating you don't wanna stop listening to it you wanna keep listening in listening but you sometimes gotta put it down for a couple hours to do something else with it come right back to it you don't wanna take phone calls while whispering to it becase you show captivated can't wait to listen to the next book

Fast paced

The book started slow but once it picked up it was fast paced and exciting. I loved Viv and Harris’ growing relationship. There were twist and turns that surprised even me, a mystery lover. Meltzer never fails when it comes to writing intelligent novels. I’m building a very large Meltzer collection. Die hard fan!
