媒体评论

　　"Baldacci's last book, Split Second, was a relatively weak offering from this bestselling author, sunk by a cartoonish villain and absurd plot. But it did introduce two of Baldacci's (Absolute Power, etc.) most memorable characters, former Secret Service agents Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, in business together as private investigators in smalltown Wrightsburg, Va. Baldacci is back in form, and King and Maxwell reappear in this utterly absorbing, complex mystery-thriller that spins in unexpected directions. The novel starts as a serial-killer thriller, for there's a murderer at work in Wrightsburg whose selection of victims appears random but whose modus operandi, differing from kill to kill, mimics the work of a notorious serial killer-the Zodiac killer, John Wayne Gacy, etc. The fifth victim is local resident and international tycoon Robert E. Lee Battle. King and Maxwell have already been tangling with the gothic horror show of a dysfunctional Southern family that is the Battles, as they've been hired to help prove the innocence of a Battle handyman accused of stealing from the family. Then that handyman is murdered, and the duo (along with a clueless local sheriff and an obnoxious FBI agent) must race to figure out if the same killer is behind all the murders and, if so, why. There are terrific action sequences sprinkled throughout, and plenty of suspense, and the King/Maxwell relationship, while not romantic, emits sparks. It's Baldacci's portrayal of smalltown Southern life, however, and his sharp characterizations of the Battles, from the bombastic Bobby and his regal widow to his weird extended family, that give the novel texture and depth: this is Baldacci's most accomplished tale since his nonthriller Wish You Well, and it rivals that novel in its social commentary. Despite fair clues, few if any readers will ID the villain (villains?) before they're revealed, and a snappy surprise ending will have Baldacci's many fans remembering why they love this author so much. "

　　"Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, the former Secret Service agents from Baldacci's previous outing, Split Second (2003), are on the trail of a serial killer in this new novel. King and Maxwell have just gone into business together as private investigators when Michelle discovers the body of a young woman in the woods. The body was posed with a wristwatch stopped at 1:00. Two high-school students are the next victims; both have watches on their wrists--the boy's reads 2:00, the girl's 3:01. King and Maxwell aid the police while working on their own case: a burglary in the house of Remmy Battle, a wealthy, tough southerner whose husband, Bobby, lies in a coma at the local hospital. The prime suspect is Junior Deaver, whose fingerprints are found at the crime scene. But Junior swears he's innocent. The victim list keeps growing: a successful high-powered lawyer and then Bobby Battle himself. Soon King begins to suspect that the serial killer might not be choosing his victims at random, and he believes one of the murders is the work of a different killer. The plot doesn't hold together perfectly, even starting out a bit slow, but it recovers to build to an exciting finish. "

　　"Baldacci的最后一本书,一刹那,是一个相对薄弱的祭,沉没这个畅销书作家由一个卡通式的恶棍和荒谬的阴谋。但这并没有向两个Baldacci(绝对的权力等)最令人难忘的人物,前特勤局特工肖恩国王和米歇尔马克斯韦尔,在商业一起在smalltown Wrightsburg私人调查员,梵谛冈。Baldacci回归形式,国王和麦克斯韦重现在这个完全吸收,复杂的mystery-thriller旋转以意想不到的方向。这部小说开始作为一个serial-killer惊悚片,因为有一个杀人犯在工作的Wrightsburg选择的受害者,但他们的做法出现随机的,同时由于冬自杀死杀生,模仿一个臭名昭著的串行killer-the工作黄道十二宫杀手约翰·韦恩Gacy等。第五受害者是当地居民及国际巨头罗伯特。e。李的战斗。国王和麦克斯韦已经纠缠的哥特式恐怖表示一个不正常的家庭是南部战斗,因为他们已经被雇来帮助证明清白打杂的战斗中被指控偷这个家庭。那心灵手巧的人被杀死,哆(连同一个无能的地方治安官和一个令人讨厌的联邦调查局特工人员)必须种族判断出同样的杀手谋杀背后,如果是这样,为什么。有很棒的散布在动作场景,以及丰富的悬念,国王/马克士威的关系,而不是浪漫的,能发出火花。这是Baldacci本片对smalltown南方的生活,然而,他精明的刻画的战役,从夸张的鲍比和他的高贵的寡妇他的古怪大家庭,即给予的小说结构和深度:这是最成功的故事的Baldacci自从他nonthriller希望你一切都好,和它的竞争对手,小说在其社会评论。尽管公平的线索,极少有读者将身份证坏蛋(坏人?)才会被揭露的,一个响亮的惊讶的结尾会有Baldacci的许多球迷记住他们为什么喜欢这个作家如此多。"
