He heads up the world's largest defense contractor, The Ares Corporation. Dick Pender is the man Creel retains to "perception manage" his company to even more riches by manipulating international conflicts. But Creel may have an even grander plan in mind. Shaw, a man with no first name and a truly unique past, has a different agenda. Reluctantly doing the bidding of a secret multi-national intelligence agency, he travels the globe to keep it safe and at peace. Willing to do anything to get back to the top of her profession, Katie James is a journalist who has just gotten the break of a lifetime: the chance to interview the sole survivor of a massacre that has left every nation stunned. In this terrifying, global thriller, these characters' lives will collide head-on as a series of events is set in motion that could change the world as we know it. An utterly spellbinding story that feels all too real, THE WHOLE TRUTH delivers all the twists and turns, emotional drama, unforgettable characters, and can't-put-it-down pacing that readers expect from David Baldacci-and still goes beyond anything he's written before.

I think ... Read More Rating: - A James Bond look alikeAnother reviewer suggested that this book is akin to a James Bond story and, yes, I agree, but it's such a fast, good read that it's fun. Set the scene with a multi billionaire on his own luxury yacht, down in the bowels of which is his private submarine in which he may come and go unseen. The central character is named Shaw and is a secret operative for a government agency, fighting crime. When Shaw becomes engaged to marry a brilliant and beautiful woman who works for a Hong Kong based company which ...
