Zero Day – New Baldacci Character
One of David Baldacci’s best. I have really missed the Camel Club and wondered how Baldacci was going to come up with another top story line. In Zero Day he moves on and introduces you to a new character, John Puller of Army CID. In Puller, David Baldacci has created a character every bit as good as Oliver Stone.
Zero Day is a page turner that will keep you guessing as to who are the good guys and bad guys as well as the real story behind multiple murders.
Here is how David Baldacci summarizes the book –
John Puller is a combat veteran and the best
military investigator in the U.S. Army’s Criminal Investigative
Division. His father was an Army fighting legend, and his brother is
serving a life sentence for treason in a federal military prison. Puller
has an indomitable spirit and an unstoppable drive to find the truth.
Now, Puller is called out on a case in a remote,
rural area in West Virginia coal country far from any military outpost.
Someone has stumbled onto a brutal crime scene, a family slaughtered.
The local homicide detective, a headstrong woman with personal demons of
her own, joins forces with Puller in the investigation. As Puller digs
through deception after deception, he realizes that absolutely nothing
he’s seen in this small town, and no one in it, is what it seems. Facing
a potential conspiracy that reaches far beyond the hills of West
Virginia, he is one man on the hunt for justice against an overwhelming
force.
