Publisher's Summary

Remember his name: FBI Agent Amos Decker is back in a thrilling memory man investigation from number one bestseller, David Baldacci.

A town with a secret.

A lone hunter discovers the remains of a woman in North Dakota’s Badlands. She appears to have had a post-mortem performed on her reminiscent of those only seen on TV shows – but this time, there was no slab, morgue or camera in sight.  

A victim without a past.

The reason why Irene Cramer’s death merits an FBI investigation becomes rapidly clear when key questions surface about her mysterious past. Little is known about this school teacher, where she came from or her true identity. She clearly had something to hide.

A hero with a unique skill.

FBI investigator, Amos Decker and his colleague, Alex Jamison, are summoned to seek answers in the local community of London, North Dakota, which sits at the very heart of the fracking industry. Enriched with oil money, jealousy and a deep-set rivalry lie beneath a veneer of glitz and opulence.

Decker soon realizes that the nearby ‘eye in the sky’, the Air Force Station, may hold the vital clues and that this town holds secrets so explosive that they could destabilize the entire country . .

Walk the Wire by David Baldacci is the sixth audiobook in the Amos Decker series. Continue the investigative thrillers with Long Shadows.

Once listened, never forgotten.

Good old Amos Decker is back...

This book is good. Loved the plot which is set in North Dakota. The first book I read of David Baldacci was The Innocent and the main character of that is Will Robie and he's in this book which was a good surprise. The mystery of all the murders remained mystery until last few pages of the book.
I liked one of the scenes in the book which takes place in someone's bedroom and David Baldacci mentions Dean Koontz books being on the table.

Poor storybook

Dissatisfied and disappointed with the story line. Baldacci has slipped this time he was good in earlier books. The plot is contrived

Bites more than it could chew

Story is full of unnecessary details and it’s just confusing. Full of cliché and story holes. The writing is poor this time around
