“I think this ranks up there as one of my favorite Baldacci books (though I don’t think anything will ever top Wish You Well). I hated Mace’s name, especially the way the symbolism is pretty blatantly spelled out, but I liked her as a character. Roy turned out to be a good partner for her — patient, steady, and with just a little bit of crazy to balance out her wild amount of crazy/reckless abandon/obsession. The mystery does get a little bit confusing, as there are several layers of bad guys, but it’s all spelled out pretty well at the end. I do suspect that this isn’t the last we’ve seen of Mace and Roy…. She still has a lot of questions she needs answered.”
