Amos Decker, the Memory Man, is back in this book.  He and the very patient and tolerant Alex Jamison are sent to North Dakota with no understanding  of why they have been sent to a “simple” murder.   London, North Dakota is a hot bed of fracking and also has an Air Force installation.  To add to the mix there is a religious colony and two at odds wealthy families.

Baldacci brought Robie and Reel to the party as well.  I am fond of cross overs.  You really need to read Baldacci to follow all of this. 

The locals find mayhem and murder blossoming under their feet as Decker and Jamison attempt to solve a murder mystery.

Secrets abound and with them are the roots of the mayhem.

As always I enjoy Baldacci’s work and highly recommend him.
