Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Following the instant # 1 New York Times bestseller Stone Cold, Oliver Stone and the Camel Club return in David Baldacci's most surprising thriller yet . . .
Known by his alias, 'Oliver Stone,' John Carr is the most wanted man in America. With two pulls of the trigger, the men who destroyed Stone's life and kept him in the shadows were finally silenced.
But his freedom comes at a steep price: The assassinations he carried out prompt the highest levels of the U.S. government to unleash a massive manhunt. Behind the scenes, master spy Macklin Hayes is playing a very personal game of cat and mouse. He, more than anyone, wants Stone dead.
With their friend and unofficial leader in hiding, the members of the Camel Club risk everything to save him. Now, as the hunters close in, Stone's flight from the demons of his past will take him from the power corridors of Washington, D.C., to the small, isolated coal-mining town of Divine, Virginia-and into a world every bit as lethal as the one he left behind.

In his fourth book featuring the characters introduced in the Camel Club, Baldacci presents an entertaining, if somewhat contrived, tale as Oliver Stone (aka John Carr) attempts to run for freedom following the assassination of two, high-level government officials in the third book. At the same time, the eccentric band of conspiracy-hunting club members seeks to help Stone. Although at times stretching the limits of believability, Baldacci brings together a number of different subplots that are woven together as the story progresses. Action and surprises keep the reader turning the pages, but not quite in the compelling, can't-put-it-down way that was the case of Baldacci's earliest works like Total Control or Absolute Power. This should be an enjoyable read, especially for readers who have become comfortable with the characters of the Camel Club series.

In another Camel Club adventure, we find Oliver Stone, aka John Carr, guilty of two murders and on the run. He disappears from D.C. and wants to protect his friends by completely disengaging from them. Putting loyalty before their safety, the Camel Club refuses to stop looking for Stone, and their search may cost Stone his life.
This was fast-paced, and I had trouble putting it down. Another fine work from David Baldacci.

I'm a big fan and I loved this book.
Baldaccis' style is always easy to read and keeps you guessing.
You will recognize some familiar characters if you've read his
other books. Fun to the last page!

I have enjoyed the "Camel Club" stories and must admit that this one was the most enjoyable because the "perils" never ceased until the very end. I think that the main characters have been given more fullness in this book than in his previous stories. This may be a maturity of writing that has been adapted by Mr. Baldacci over the years but it is a better read now.
I do look forward to his subsequent book and hope that this prolific writer is still willing to create new adventures and new characters.

Best Camel Club Yet
David Baldacci writes a superb thriller with Divine Justice. He weaves together 2 very interesting plots into one action packed novel with many twists and turns. The central thesis revolves around the enigmatic John Carr (aka Oliver Stone) and his endeavor to escape the dangerous world of Washington Intelligence after he assassinates two prominent government officials. During his travels he accidentally finds himself embroiled in the mysterious activities of a bucolic Virginia town named Divine. One thing leads to another as he finds himself becoming more and more involved in the strange goings on and even stranger local inhabitants. Couple all this with a massive CIA manhunt for Mr. Stone by the "Company's" best "finder" and you have the makings of a very good story. Needless to say all the usual suspects are present, but what makes the story so interesting is not everyone is who they appear to be. The Camel Club eventually arrives in force to help Oliver Stone, and in the hunt by the CIA's finder, Joe Knox, old revelations of Stone's past come to light that somewhat mitigate his actions. Wrapped up in all this is a master CIA spy who has an old score to settle with Stone, and an evil local super-max prison warden who is dealing in drugs. It all comes together in a climatic conclusion with the good guys winning despite taking some sad losses.
Simply a good story with intersecting plots and dynamic characters. This is undoubtedly the best Camel Club story to date as the characters grow into their individual parts.
Character development is good as Mr. Baldacci continues to expand on each main character. With each Camel Club story we learn more and more about this eclectic band of self-styled investigators. With the introduction of some new characters, it will be very interesting to see if and/or where Mr. Baldacci goes next. There are many possibilities and they all seem good.
No gratuitous sex, language, or violence.
Recommended. Simply a good, solid story with 2 interesting plots. I am looking forward to the subsequent Camel Club adventure.
