Long Shadows: From the number one bestselling author (Amos Decker series Book 7)

Product Information

As always, we dig into Decker's personal backstory, perhaps even more so than in the other books, as events keep bringing painful memories back to him. The flowers he had laid here on his last visit had long since disintegrated, much like the bodies lying below.

Meanwhile, Decker must contend with a series of unsettling changes, including a new partner—Special Agent Frederica “Freddie” White—and a devastating event that brings Decker’s own tragic past back to the present . He felt a nudge on his hand and opened his eyes to see Sandy’s small, slender fingers curling around his long, thick ones. My only gripe with Baldacci's books is that there inevitably comes a point when they're over, and that he only publishes two of them a year.

There had been sadness exchanged on the loss of a life well known to them, a grudging acceptance of the choice made, and of the motive behind it. But the interpersonal dynamic between Decker and White is just as interesting as the solution to the murders, which doesn’t come easily . Together with the prospect of working with a new partner, Frederica White, Amos Decker knows that this case will take all of his special skills to solve.

Thuli Madonsela speaks about the importance of SA's political future in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.That these easter eggs are meaningless and even befuddling to new readers might make sense in terms of costs and benefits. I happened to pick up on one of the main clues when it was given fairly early on and because of that was able to guess part of the solution very early, but that was a complete coincidence - if I had been a little more tired or inattentive, I would absolutely have missed it.

Long Shadows is a 2022 American crime thriller written by David Baldacci and published by the Grand Central Publishing.

The insomnia had been getting worse, and it was adding nothing positive to his already unpredictable temperament. The massive Decker looked all the way down at the five-foot-three-inch Black woman, and she looked back up the mountain at him.
