Summary
David Baldacci, one of the world's most popular
storytellers, delivers the third installment in the John Puller
series, where Special Agent Puller must hunt a dangerous
criminal: his brother. John Puller's older brother, Robert, was convicted of
treason and national security crimes. His inexplicable escape
from a maximum-security military prison makes him the most
wanted criminal in the country. Some in the government believe
that John Puller represents their best chance at capturing
Robert alive, and so Puller must bring in his brother to face
justice. But Puller quickly discovers that his brother is pursued by
others who don't want him to survive. Puller is in turn pushed
into an uneasy, fraught partnership with another agent, who may
have an agenda of her own. They dig more deeply into the case
together and uncover troubling details about his brother's
conviction... and someone out there doesn't want the truth to
ever come to light. As the nationwide manhunt for Robert grows more urgent,
Puller's masterful skills as an investigator and strengths as a
fighter may not be enough to save his brother, or himself. ** "Baldacci has crafted another terrific tale with two great
protagonists. Just when the story line seems to veer into
familiar areas, Baldacci steers it into another shocking
direction. This is the best book yet in the series."―
Associated Press on King and Maxwell** "David Baldacci's latest thriller is not only highly
relevant, it is also well timed. And the details seem so real
that it's hard not to wonder if the author is an insider; the
tone is that authentic. An absolute page-turner,
King and Maxwell is Baldacci at the pinnacle of his
game."―

"Another fast paced page turner that will keep you glued to
the couch...by an author who continues to standout in the
increasingly crowded thriller field."―
Examiner.com on The Forgotten** "Baldacci is a master when it comes to writing about
small-town conspiracies and a lone hero who fights against all
odds to clean up corruption. The narrative moves slowly, so the
reader has a chance to solve the case along with Puller. It
might seem straightforward, but the final reveal will surprise
even hardcore thriller junkies."―
*The Washington Post on *The Forgotten** "Readers expect excitement and intrigue in David Baldacci's
books, and Zero Day is no exception...As Baldacci's new hero
narrowly escapes countless close calls, the pairing of the
author's imagination and knowledge create a wild ride for the
reader. Puller is gutsy, brash and likable. Best of all, he
survives to reappear in the next book of this new
series."―
*The Free-Lance Star on *Zero Day** "Zero Day is a nifty, paranoid thriller disguised as a
murder mystery, and Baldacci advances it at a speedy clip with
a nice mix of intrigue, tantalizing clues and the occasional
explosion...Baldacci's books are fast-paced battles between
good and evil."―
