End Game: David Baldacci (Will Robie series, 5)

Product Information

Will Robie and Jessica are two of my favorite Baldacci characters. Their developing closeness than pulling away from each other adds conflict to an all-ready exciting and tense relationship. And the mystery surrounding the Blue Man plays out in a personal and revealing manner that adds depth and sincerity to both his character and the series mythology. Baldacci's novels have been published in over 45 languages and in more than 80 countries, with over 130 million worldwide sales as of 2018.

He then went to Washington, D.C., where he practiced trial and corporate law for nine years. While living in Alexandria, Baldacci continued to write, penning short stories and screenplays, without much success. It was then that he decided to try his hand at novels. He sat down and wrote his first novel Absolute Power, which was published in 1996. Today he lives in North Virginia with his wife and their two children and two dogs. Then over the years they had ground into him a whole other being, still possessing the basics plus a spectrum of skills that most people could never imagine, much less achieve.

So no let downs here, as Will Robie and Jessica Reel are two of my favourite characters from one of my favourite authors. Last seen in rural Colorado, Blue Man had taken a rare vacation to go fly fishing in his hometown when he disappeared off the grid.

The story opens with Will on a mission in London to save the world from terrorists and then switches to his occasional partner Jessica Reel on a separate mission in Iraq. In both cases it came across to me as somewhat of a comic book superhero. Will's mission is a success. Jessica's not so much. After these missions both are summoned to the office of the Director of Central Intelligence (DCI). Roger Walton (a.k.a "The Blueman") has gone missing during his annual vacation to Colorado. Their mission ... find him. Blueman is vital to the agency. After the huge opening scenes we settle down a little into an unfolding storyline around Will’s boss, known to them as the Blue Man. (Which is something to do with his revered position in The Agency.)

Gresham, Tom (December 11, 2019). "David Baldacci once wrote stories in secret at VCU. Now he has millions of readers around the world". Virginia Commonwealth University. Two of my favorite mystery/suspense writers are Lee Child and David Baldacci. There are very few books by either author that I haven’t enjoyed. This is the case with Baldacci’s new book, “End Game” which is his fourth adventure with Will Robie, a secret weapon of the United States government. Robie, along with his partner, Jessica Reel, are two of the most lethal assassins ever created. They are given the toughest assignments against the world’s deadliest terrorists and those seeking violence against the United States.Their reunion is more or less amicable, but Will and Jessica are of the same mind when it comes to their mission - find Blue Man at any cost, including their own lives should it come to that. Needless to say, as they bump up against infestations of skinheads, neo-Nazis and other undesirables in this godforsaken territory, there's a good probability that's exactly how it will end. Throw in a few abandoned government bunkers and silos and it closes in on a sure bet. Two of the government's most lethal assassins scour rural Colorado to find their missing handler--and discover an insidious and lethal threat along the way in this New York Times bestselling thriller. Baldacci was a consulting producer on King & Maxwell, a TNT television series based on his characters Sean King and Michelle Maxwell. Jon Tenney and Rebecca Romijn starred.
