The Last Mile

Persistence. David Baldacci reprises his serial character with perfect memory, Amos Decker, for a second novel titled, The Last Mile. Decker has joined a special FBI team and uses that opportunity to pursue a case that has similarities to his own life. Once on the case, Decker doesn’t give up, no matter what. Baldacci riffs on racism and power in this novel, while presenting a fast-paced plot to meet readers’ expectations. Decker’s character development goes deeper in this novel, and as a result what had been a freaky skill becomes a useful tool. With Decker on the case readers don’t need to remember every detail, we just need to relax and enjoy the story. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase The Last Mile from amazon.com.
