Amos Decker, David Baldacci’s unique special agent, who suffered a head injury that resulted in giving him the gift of a remarkable memory together with a condition called synaesthesia, takes on another case in The Fix.
Walter Dabney is a family man. A loving husband and the father of four grown daughters, he’s built a life many would be proud of.
But then the unthinkable happens.
Standing outside the FBI headquarters in Washington, DC, Dabney shoots schoolteacher Anne Berkshire in cold blood before turning the gun on himself. One of the many witnesses is Amos Decker, a man who forgets nothing and sees what most miss. Baffled by what appears to be a seemingly senseless and random killing, Decker is thrust into the investigation to determine what drove this family man to pull the trigger.
As part of an FBI special task force, Decker and the team delve into the lives of Dabney and Berkshire to find a connection that doesn’t seem to exist. What they do find are secrets that stretch back a lifetime and reveal a current plot of impending destruction that will send the world reeling, placing Decker and his team squarely in the crosshairs.
Good Writiers Develop Great Plots; Excellent Writers Create Great Characters; “The Fix” has Both & More *** LANGUAGE ***Â
Baldacci at his best It has been quite a while since I came across a book that I couldn’t wait to read, had to know what happened next, gave up sleep to finish. The dialogue is believable and flawless. The character development is extraordinary. Amos Decker is a riveting character that inspires both loyalty and courage. If I had written such a book as this, I could die knowing I had done something remarkable. I simply cannot wait for the next book in this series.
