About this eBook

As former D.C cop Mace Perry investigates a mysterious high-profile homicide in a last-ditch attempt to get her badge back, she finds herself on a collision course with the dark side of national security in this New York Times bestseller.

Mason "Mace" Perry was a firebrand cop on the D.C. police force until she was kidnapped and framed for a crime -- and then spent two years in prison. Now she's back on the outside and focused on one mission: to be a cop once more.
Her only shot to be a true blue again is to solve a major case on her own. But even with her police chief sister on her side, she'll have to work in the shadows: A vindictive U.S. attorney will stop at nothing to send Mace back to jail. Enter Roy Kingman . . .

A young D.C. lawyer, Roy meets Mace after the murder of one of the firm's female partners. Soon Roy and Mace are investigating together -- and uncovering surprising secrets from both the private and public sectors of the nation's capital.

Ratings and reviews

While it's refreshing to have strong, independet female characters, Mace & Beth were just not believable or realistic. Too bad as the plot was great.

I am not a fan of the way Baldacci writes his female protagonists; from Michelle Maxwell to the women of True Blue, they are just not that compelling and drag down the plots.

Truly a marvelous story line. From begining to end there was not a moment that was not full of intrigue and action. I loved this book being based on women in the primary roles. I have not read a thriller that had that make up. Getting ready to start another book. Keep the stories coming Mr. Baldacci.
