This gem of a story continues the adventures of "The Camel Club," a established to monitor the activities of powerful agents of the U.S. Govt.
John Carr as is alias, Oliver Stone, assassinates the two govt. officials who have destroyed his life, one who authorized the hit on Carr's family when he wanted to retire as the Govt.'s #1 assassin, the other who ordered the take out of Carr's unit.
Stone goes into hiding in the coal mining town of Devine, Va. where he finds a situation similiar to Lee Child's character, Jack Reacher. He helps a young man being attacked on a train and then accompanies the man to his hometown.
Stone is given a job by the young man's mother, Abby and develops a relationship with her.
The town seems unusually wealthy and there are a large number of minors attending a meth. clinic.
The man leading the hunt for Stone is John Knox. Knox is an honorable man and in his investigation he finds sufficient reasons for Stone's actions that he feels empathy for him.
Baldacci tells a story that is intreaguing and it's hard to put the novel down. Like Jack Reacher, Stone stands out as the only man capable of doing the right thing. Unlike Reacher, Stone has The Camel Club and some associate members to help.
Highly Recommended. (show less)

I don't think Baldacci should continue this series. To be honest the quality of the books in this series has declined ever since the Camel Club. I'm beginning to get tired of authors who write good books and then milk them by writing more in the same series at record speed and at declining quality (show less)

Will the criminals in the backwater town accomplish what militaries on several continents failed to do and kill Stone or will the US Government beat them to it? Awesome conclusion to the Camel Club series. (show less)

  My first thought upon completion of this story was, Is this the end of the Camel Club? This one exposed most of the story of John Carr and the related players. This book and the one preceeding it were real page turners but when ever you finish one (this one included) you always feel like there's something unfinished. This one had more of a resolution than the other two but there's still something that makes you wonder if it's really over. Do you suppose that there are men who are really l... (show more)

Do you suppose that there are men who are really like Oliver Stone/John Carr left in this world? The best of the potboilers. (show less)
