From the author of The 6:20 Man, "Memory Man" Amos Decker--an
FBI consultant with perfect recall--delves into a bewildering double
homicide in this new thriller in David Baldacci's #1 New York Times
bestselling series.
When Amos Decker is called to South Florida to investigate a double
homicide, the case appears straightforward: A federal judge and her
bodyguard have been found dead, the judge's face sporting a blindfold
with two eye holes crudely cut out, a clear sign that she'd made one too
many enemies over her years on the bench.
What at first seems cut and dry is anything but: Not only did the judge
have more enemies than Decker can count--from violent gang members, drug
dealers, and smugglers to a resentful ex-husband--but the bodyguard
presents additional conundrums that muddy the waters even further. Who
was the real target in this vicious attack?
Meanwhile, Decker must contend with a series of unsettling changes,
including a new partner--Special Agent Frederica "Freddie" White--and a
devastating event that brings Decker's own tragic past back to the
present . . . and forces him to reckon with his future. As potential
witnesses start disappearing, Decker and White are inexorably pulled
down a twisted tunnel of secrets, crimes, and scandal--at the end of
which lies Decker's deadliest threat yet.
