BALDACCI has crossed that hard line into terror/thriller territory with this story of US agents Will Robie and Jessica Reel, whose lethal mission centres on a potential North Korean attack.

Destruction is in the air and Robie and Reel find that they are not immune to assassination at the hands of a cold, ruthless killer. When Baldacci has you in his sights, there’s no escape.
