If you enjoyed this post, then you might also like:I loved most of this book as the mystery unfolded and connections were uncovered, but I wasn’t ultimately enamoured of the direction it took, as it seemed a tad unrealistic (and left-fieldish). Vengeance, ahem, justice awakened him however and he’s been working with the FBI since, as part of a small task force – though generally given a bit of a free rein. From guilt and forgiveness to healing and change, many people desire to be redeemed from the mistakes and injustices they’ve committed. But seeking forgiveness is a difficult journey and often takes time. I was reminded that we also didn’t see much of her in the second book of the series, The Last Mile, as I felt it was one that book’s weaknesses. I wonder if it’s because there’s a subtle (well, ish) sexual tension there and Baldacci’s wanting to drag that out.
