About this deal

As she probes into the past, she uncovers shocking surprises and secrets that have her questioning everything she ever knew about her family. Your payment method will be charged immediately, and the product is expected to ship on or around November 19, 2019.

They were six when a man came into their bedroom and took her and hit Mercy so hard that she ended up in the hospital with severe head trauma. I loved the previous book in this series as well as characters etc, also due to the location of the Grand Canyon. His novels have been translated into over 45 languages and sold in more than 80 countries, with 150 million copies sold worldwide. Interviews with local folks who knew the family back then unearth new leads as well as the surprising awareness that not everything Atlee has been told was the absolute truth - some of it not even close. Pensi di sapere coese succede nelle pagine seguenti e sistematicamente Baldacci ti stupisce con qualcosa differente.

Atlee is a proficient FBI Special Agent with a tumultuous past, she was attacked and left for dead when she was six years old and her twin sister Mercy was abducted, never to be seen again! In the beginning of the book we are hit with dumb collocations such as "twin guns, twin braids, twin indentations, twin trails of smoke" - as you can see totally unnecessary, yet ever presenting to the fact the reader is some kind of moron who might for a split second forget it is a twin sisters mystery. In this hugely entertaining and compulsive read, we learn more about what has made Pine the woman she is today, as she investigates present day murders whilst becoming aware just how little she knows about her own past.

She was loyal to Atlee and always gave the support she needed but also made her see her faults when Atlee was making mistakes.Long Road to Mercy is David Baldacci at his best, introducing an engrossing new heroine, FBI Agent Atlee Pine.

to be honest, Baldacci isnt the best at writing women and its pretty clear in some places of the book. Then we are thrown all the time some 1960s shockers like "girls can do everything" , not making coffee for your boss, wounded male pride over tall woman in heels, which would be quite an OhMyGod moment if we were, well, in the 1960s. On her way home to Shattered Rock, Arizona, where she is the sole FBI agent with her assistant, Carol Blum, she ends up intervening in a child abduction case that involves a car chase. But in a small town full of secrets — some of which could answer the questions that have plagued Atlee her entire life — and digging deeper into the past could be more dangerous than she realizes . The plot is a bit dry and slow towards the middle and the main focus of the book shifts from the murders to Pine's investigation into her sister's case.The writing, as always with Baldacci is fast paced and giving lots of potential outcomes withi the story.
