A review by felinity
King and Maxwell by David Baldacci
4.0
Another fast-paced offering, with conspiracies, changing political leanings, danger and suspense.
Sean and Michelle bicker like an old married couple, and at least one character notices; Sean is ragged on for his lack of computer skills, and sometimes I wonder how Michelle managed to rise so high in the Secret Service, despite her physical ability - and then I figure she just used up her entire store of tact and diplomacy - but all these little flaws make the characters seem real. They have real limitations, real fears, face real risks, and still decide to help a scared 16-year old boy... because it's right, and because they can.
