A sequel to The Camel Club but not quite as good or plausible!

I realized I previously read this book. This is why I am using StoryGraph.

I had a hard time getting into this one until Annabelle was helping the Camel Club. Once there it was an engaging page turner.

  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

David Baldacci included a LOT of research, making the book extremely informative but a bit confusing. My only complaint is that the “bad guys” are always the same in his books.

I was in a bookstore recently and David Baldacci was going to read from one of his new books and then have a book signing. He wasn't due to arrive for two more hours and there was already a line of about a hundred people clutching bags of books in preparation. Intrigued,I went to the library on my way home and checked this book out to see what all of the excitement was about. I'm still waiting to see what all of the excitement was about. I didn't care for this book, the subject matter, or the writing. Why I didn't give it a 2 minus is only because that isn't an option. The only way I can see myself picking up another one of his books is if I am isolated somewhere and he is the only author available. Until then, there are too many other books to read and too little time to read them.

I think the main reason this didn’t get a 4 star rating is just how long I took to read it. I ended up reading another novel at the same time and kept forgetting what was going on so the storyline wasn’t as cohesive as it could have been and the suspense not as effective. But it was a good book and I plan to continue to read the Camel Club series.

I enjoyed this book even more than the first in the series. It was action packed and I can't wait to see how one of the side stories continues on in the next book.
