A perfect storm!

A common explanation from the experts on the news in recent times is "perfect storm". Whenever someone asks why something is happening. Be it the pandemic, climate disasters, or inflation. Fortunately for us the readers, unfortunately for our 6:20 Man. Travis Devine seems to have gotten himself into the calm center that is the eye of a perfect storm. A heart-pounding, leaving your palms sweaty thriller.

Hmmm!

I’m a big fan of this author and have been for many years, this was not for me. Sadly, I think it may be the beginning of a new series.

So clever!

Baldacci never disappoints. I love that the “goody” in this story is such a mensch. Excellent research. We’ll worth the time.

Baldacci on top form.

A leading candidate for the "best action thriller I have read / listened to this year. Top notch narration enhances the story.
Travis Devine is a formidable but not infallible hero. There are similarities to many other plotlines in this genre - but also plenty of original twists to the proceedings to make the story interesting throughout. In fact there are enough twists and turns for two or three novels. The average "physical attractiveness quotient" of the female characters is perhaps rather too high to be credible, which may be incentive or disincentive for the prospective reader, depending on your viewpoint. I found the audiobook hard to turn off and had finished it in a 48 hour period - which did include a long car journey - but also delayed a number of pressing tasks - I suggest you don't start listening unless you have some time in your hands - or perhaps an impending road trip across a large country!
The story reaches a satisfactory conclusion - which I did not see coming - for a standalone novel, but leaves plenty of scope for future developments if the author intends more novels featuring Travis D. For my part he will have one definite pre-order secured - for
both book and audiobook - I really hope this is the start of a series, though it may be difficult to think up another setting for the main character(s) which is as original as this one.

Another good one from Baldacci

Good read or listen, good narration, same niggles as always with Baldacci books, ie lighted instead of lit and the over use of incredulous.
Still a good story and ending, would recommend

Fantastic

Great to have David Baldacci back this book is exactly what I hoped for can't wait for the next one!

Baldacci rocks

Another brilliant story, well paced yet lulling the listener into a false sense of knowing before yet another twist.
If you are a Baldacci fan, you will love this. If not, you don't know what you are missing.

Brilliant.

I really enjoyed this story. It had be hooked from the very start. I thought this book was so well researched and thought out. It had everything, suspense, intrigue, action and violence. I loved it. The narrator, Zachery Webber was brilliant. I love anything he narrates. So, all in all this book was so good. I’d recommend it to everyone.

Twists and turns all the way

Up to standard but spoilt by a narrator who uses the same voice for multiple characters.

Page turner with a caution

The book is a page turner and easy to blow through. The writer does an excellent job of keeping the reader engaged. This my first book by this author...
This book won't be for everyone because it minimises certain religious worldviews.
As far as storytelling goes, it will keep you guessing.
