So begins David Baldacci's new book - a thriller unlike any he's written before. "Matt" is Mathew Pender, of Pender Associates - a shadowy organization that specializes in managing seemingly impossible situations for its clients. Sometimes, those services extend to managing - and creating - armed conflict.
When Matt Pender is asked by his client - the largest defense contractor in the world - to manipulate two nations against each other, a shocking and surprising series of events is set in motion that will possibly bring the world to the brink of World War III.
In this epic thriller with a global backdrop, David Baldacci delivers all the twists and turns, compelling characters, and can't-put-it-down pacing that listeners have come to expect from this master storyteller.

Geschichte
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Catch a tiger by its toe. It's seared into Atlee Pine's memory: the kidnapper's chilling rhyme as he chose between six-year-old Atlee and her twin sister, Mercy. Mercy was taken. Atlee was spared. She never saw Mercy again. Three decades after that terrifying night, Atlee Pine works for the FBI. She's the lone agent assigned to the Shattered Rock, Arizona resident agency, which is responsible for protecting the Grand Canyon. So when one of the Grand Canyon's mules is found stabbed to death at the bottom of the canyon - and its rider missing - Pine is called in to investigate.

Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter. He's just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he's arrested for murder. Not much of a welcome. All Reacher knows is that he didn't kill anybody. At least not here. Not lately. But he doesn't stand a chance of convincing anyone. Not in Margrave, Georgia. Not a chance in hell.

He was framed for murder. Now he needs someone on the outside to save him. For 22 years Quincy Miller has sat on Death Row without friends, family or legal representation. He was accused of killing Keith Russo, a lawyer in a small Florida town. But there were no witnesses and no motive.

A torch that conveniently disappeared from evidence just before his trial.

Ein guter Baldacci..... aber nicht sein bester.
Eigentlich 3,5 STERNE - doch diesmal trotzdem abgerundet...
Baldacci versteht es wieder einmal den Leser bzw. Hörer, von der ersten Seite an, an seine Story und ihre Protagonisten zu binden.
Trotzdem hat das Buch diesmal auch seine Längen. Obwohl die Story durchaus von Beginn an interessant ist und den Leser zum Weiterlesen animiert, kommt das Ganze doch erst ab dem zweiten Drittel so richtig in Schwung, erst jetzt wird es so richtig spannend.
Die verschiedenen Handlungsstränge stehen zu Beginn scheinbar völlig unverbunden nebeneinander, was es stellenweise ein wenig anstrengend macht, der Handlung interessiert zu folgen. Sehr geschickt verknüpft Baldacci später die einzelnen, vermeintlich unabhängigen Teile des Buches zu einem komplexen Gesamtwerk, doch bis dahin fragt sich der Leser durchaus das eine oder andere Mal: Was soll das denn jetzt?"
Darüber hinaus bedient sich Baldacci wieder einmal aus dem Topf großer weltpolitischer Hintergründe und Zusammenhänge. Interessant, doch machen die (sicher notwendigen) Passagen politischer Erläuterungen die Story zum Teil ein wenig langatmig. Besonders dem politisch weniger versierten oder interessierten Leser wird es darum stellenweise ein wenig schwer fallen, der Handlung immer mit dem gleichen Interesse zu folgen.
Auch der Sprecher macht seine Sache gut. Er schafft es recht gut die einzelnen Charaktere voneinander abzugrenzen und eine zur jeweiligen Situation stimmige Atmosphäre aufzubauen. Aber trotz der durchaus guten Leistung des Sprechers kenne ich auch hier bessere. Für den nächsten Baldacci würde ich mir darum wieder einen Scott Brick oder auch einen Paul Micheal oder Victor Slezak wünschen.
FAZIT: Wenn auch nicht sein bestes Werk, alles in allem in meinen Augen ein guter Baldacci, den man trotz kleiner Schwächen auf jeden Fall gelesen haben sollte!
