Divine Justice by David Baldacci Divine Justice picks up right where the previous Camel Club book Stone Cold left off. Oliver Stone is on the run with half the government searching for him and the other half trying to kill him for killing two top government officials. He ends up in a small town named Divine where he becomes embroiled in whatever is going on in this town. In D.C. the other members of the Camel Club try to find a way to save Oliver. Good addition to the Camel Club non-stop action.
Hell’s Corner by David Baldacci Oliver Stone has been brought back into the fold. The President has personally recruited him for a mission. The mission changes when outside the White House a bomb explodes in Lafayette Park killing one man and almost killing the British Prime Minister who was supposed to walk through the park. Stone is pulled onto this case and partnered with a MI-6 agent. Lots of twists and turns and false leads as Stone attempts to find out who planted the bomb before the President or the Prime Minister are killed.
Power Down by Ben Coes An excellent debut novel which focuses on attacks on U.S. infrastructure by terrorists. Well crafted story line with many nice twists and turns. The hero of this is former Delta Force soldier Dewey Andreas who is the head of an oil platform that is attacked. He fights of the terrorists and saves some of his crew and becomes the terrorists number 1 target. He struggles with his demons and tries to stop the terrorists before it's too late. I used the Goodread Recommendation feature for this one which was recommended due to the fact that I read both Brad Thor and Vince Flynn.
Certain Prey by John Sandford In this Prey novel Lucas Davenport is attempting to track down a hitwomen who is leaving a trail of bodies in Minneapolis. A prominent lawyer is involved in the hits and Davenport faces danger at every turn as he battles one of his deadliest foes yet. Nice twists and turns with a nicely laid out plot. This is the one they made into the USA movie with Mark Harmon
Wicked Prey by John Sandford An excellent Prey novel. This book opens up with the Republican national convention in town and Lucas Davenport is involved in the coordination of security for the event. A group of strong armed robbers are in town to rob the "money men" involved in the convention. Nice plot twists as Davenport attempts negotiate the political minefield and catch the robbers who have already left several bodies in his wake. There is also a subplot with Davenport's adopted daughter Letty that is is okay but detracts a bit form the overall story line.
I only have two Prey novels till I am caught up.
