A brutal murder. A small town. A big secret . . .
Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! DescriptionThe Edge by David Baldacci is a gripping thriller that follows the harrowing journey of Travis Devine, a former member of the Army's elite special ops force, now transitioning into a high-stakes role within Homeland Security’s undercover team. Pulled back into the fray by the enigmatic DC Emerson Campbell, Devine must investigate the brutal murder of a young woman in a case that becomes dangerously personal.
Jennifer Silkwell was discovered lifeless on the forbidding rocks of the Maine coastline just four days prior. As a top-level analyst for the CIA, Jennifer possessed sensitive information that could compromise national security, making her untimely death a potential flashpoint for international espionage. To complicate matters, her father, a powerful Senator, once saved DC Emerson Campbell's life, adding a layer of urgency and personal stakes to the investigation.
Aware of the delicate and critical nature of the case, Devine heads to the quiet town of Potter in Maine. However, what appears to be a tranquil coastal enclave is anything but; beneath its serene facade, Potter hides dark secrets and deep-seated mistrust of outsiders. Devine must navigate this labyrinth of deception while contending with a lurking, unpredictable killer who could strike at any moment.
As Devine delves deeper into the mystery, the web of intrigue tightens. Every corner turned and every secret uncovered only serves to remind him that in the shadowy corridors of power and secrecy, nothing is ever as it seems, and the stakes are always higher than anyone can imagine.
David Baldacci masterfully combines suspense, intricate plots, and character depth in The Edge, making it an unmissable read for fans of high-octane thrillers and captivating storytelling.
