An improbable plot but some great characters It's a little difficult to say what it is about this installment in the King & Maxwell series that troubles me.On the one hand, I like the lead characters.A lot.Michelle Maxwell is a wonderful character: Strong, independent, and fearless; she appeals to me on many levels.Sean King also appeals to me because, in the main, he is not threatened by - nor is he overly protective of - Maxwell. He seems to understand that she is more than merely capable and, in fact, is probably superior to him when it comes to fighting a bad guy, or shooting him for that matter. I have long . Michael Sholders said Pure Intrique, Taut Adventure, Interesting Story. I loved this book. The intrigue, suspense and electrifying nature of the story kept my rapt interest throughout the story. It begins with a new way of analyzing intelligence data from all over the world by discovering those rare savants who are able to absorb enormous amount of data and process them akin to a modern computer, but with human intelligence. This person that is capable of performing these analyses becomes an invaluable asset to the country that he serves. The person who discovered this technique began selling consultancy to the American government for enor. Love the continued interplay between King & Maxwell I think the interplay between King & Maxwell has been one of the best things that has continued through the King & Maxwell series, and in this book it was no different. Without saying much about what happens, the continued building of the relationship between the two protagonists is the reason this book is one of the better ones in the series. The main mystery was built like an onion, filled with many layers, and I was surprised at Baldacci's ability to ensure the mystery itself stayed a mystery, but didn't weave too many uncomprehendable strings that weren't tied up.
