Two Secret Service agents sworn to guard their protectees lost them in a single moment . . . and in this #1 New York Times bestseller, they're about to learn that the violence has just begun.

Michelle Maxwell has just wrecked her promising career at the Secret Service. Against her instincts, she let a presidential candidate out of her sight for the briefest moment and the man whose safety was her responsibility vanished into thin air.

​Sean King knows how the younger agent feels. Eight years earlier, the hard-charging Secret Service agent allowed his attention to be diverted for a split second. And the candidate he was protecting was gunned down before his eyes. Now Michelle and Sean are about to see their destinies converge.

Drawn into a maze of lies, secrets, and deadly coincidences, the two discredited agents uncover a shocking truth: that the separate acts of violence that shattered their lives were really a long time in the making—and are a long way from over.

If you want a good "page turner" this book will deliver. I have read other Baldacci before and as such, I was able to discern who the bad guys were going to be. Of course that is where the fun is in reading a whodunit; making your own deductions and being validated in the end. The final motives of the bad guy(s) were a bit thin but it still had plausability. Like me, if you had enjoyed other Baldacci you will like this too.

not a bad read

Was a good book, but slow at times and had to go back to find out who characters were and their part in the story!

Good Book

A fast moving drama full of exciting but improbable events. The plot is constantly evolving up and down then back on itself. Not one of Baldacci’s best, but by no means disappointing.

Improbable BUT Exciting

I’m not much of a reader so I’ve started listening to books. When I purchase the book I couldn’t put it down so I used a credit to buy the audio so I could continue the story on my way back and forth between home and work. I often have a good idea who the protagonist is yet Baldacci did an excellent job setting everything up to create suspense and an excellent climax.

Couldn’t put it down.

Listening to so many books I had begun to think my expectations were too high but this one really captured my attention and kept it all the way through. It is definitely worth the credit and time to listen to.

Wow! Really enjoyed this!
