Bestselling author Baldacci introduces a new, lethal hero in his next blockbuster thriller. America has enemies--ruthless people the police, the FBI, even the military can't always stop. That's when the U.S. government calls on Will Robie, a freelance hitman who always nails his target. Only now, Robie may have made the first mistake of his career by stepping in to rescue a wayward teenaged girl. A runaway from a private facility, the girl doesn't know where her parents are, so Robie has no choice but to turn her over to the police and keep tabs on her from afar.
